The Key to a Successful Hair and Make-up Session

Photo by Kris Labang Photography
Sometimes, we find that brides are not quite happy with their professionally styled hair and make-up - quite unfortunate, when considering the investment of time and money.  To best ensure a successful hair and make-up look not just at the wedding, but even before that, at the trial session, prepare inspiration images of hair and make-up images that depict what you like, and even what does not appeal to you.  I did this myself for my professional head shots, and was sooo pleased with the end result!

While you can verbally describe what you would like, "a picture says a thousand words" and is the best way for ensuring that the vision is the same.  On countless occasions, brides have mentioned that they prefer a natural look for their wedding day, but when asked to pull inspiration images, the photos they select show very defined eyes, heavy contouring, or even prominent lips, which in fact, is contrary to what's considered to be natural...  Take a bit of time to pull together your inspiration images, and you will put yourself on track to be happiest with the hair and make-up that your professional artist achieves for you.
