Every bride wants
two things on her wedding day: to be her most
beautiful and to capture that beauty in the photographs
that will be cherished and shared throughout their
lives.
Many brides come to their trial run with a little
trepidation and say “I don’t want
to look made-up, I want to look natural.”
Some women have had bad experiences with makeup
artists or makeup counters and left feeling as
though they looked ridiculously made-up and couldn’t
wait to wash their faces. Those who never wear
makeup often picture a woman wearing garish or
bold, overly done makeup. This can be a turn off
for many.
It is, however, very important to wear makeup
on your wedding day. If the colors and application
are complimentary to your natural coloring and
facial features, your makeup application will
look natural and enhance your beauty. Applying
makeup is a necessity for terrific wedding pictures.
It is preferable to hire a professional makeup
artist, trained in the art of applying photographic
makeup. Be selective in choosing the right professional
for you and be sure to ask for references. A trial
run is a must and a good makeup artist will require
it. You will pay for it, but it’s worth
the expense. You will want to feel comfortable
with the artist and make sure that you like him/her.
By having a trial run, you will also know exactly
what to expect on your wedding day so that you
can be more relaxed and confident as you and your
bridal party get dressed.
You put a lot of effort into making the wedding
day perfect. Countless hours are spent choosing
the perfect invitation, reception hall, flowers,
food, bridesmaid and bridal gowns, tuxedos, hairstyles,
etc. The perfect face will complete the picture.
