A country bride and groom

Images by Angie Roe
On the 11th April I got to meet my Bride T for the first time, her wedding day! We went into it without a trial. This was a very interment affair with just the couples daughters and witnesses to sign. Hair was soft and pinned to look a little "undone" makeup I was told to keep it natural and soft. So I evened out her skin using mud cream foundation and mac mineralized natural powder to set. The outer corner of her eyes and slightly into the crease was darkened with taupe eyeshadow and further deepened with a plum taupe and very blended. A few indervidual lashes were added. Cheeks I used Nars in colour organism and a soft rose pink lip to match.
The best compliment was when T looked in the mirror for the first time and felt like crying because she felt so beautiful:) happy moment.

K & A wedding

Yesterday I had the pleasure of doing hair and makeup for this beautiful bride and her family that made up her bridal party. A happy ending, a farmer found his wife.
The bride wore her hair in a smooth side style with wrap around texture, the bridesmaids picked soft Grecian hair styling. Makeup was my signature soft skin, by using MUDs airbrush foundation set with Mac's mineralized natural powders creating a soft defused glow.
Eye makeup was soft and smoky in tones of expresso, plumy taupe, and cream. Soft liner and added lashes. All the girls wore a wash of peach bronze check colour and soft contouring. Lips in soft peach pinks.
Images are taken by myself .
The wedding was held at Faversham House, York, WA

Today I updates my Etsy shop see HERE my style of work is starting to form. I attended the 3 day Easter Vintage Fair and had great feed back and my pop up beauty shop, I was run off my feet doing victory rolls all day. I love dressing up in theme every day too.
