Weekly Tip # 9, Professional Makeup, yes or not?

Hi Dear Friends,

I hope you had a great weekend!  This week I want to talk about the importance of having a professional makeup artist for your wedding day. I know, I know, you are probably thinking: Why would I need a professional makeup artist when I love the way I do my own make up? Or why should I spend money on a professional when my best friend took a makeup class. She can do it and that will help me to save money!

Well, unless your friend has been doing makeup artistry for quite a while and has experience working with brides to enhance their beauty for their big day, I will have to disagree with you. As a professional photographer, one of my major concerns when we photograph a woman is to make sure that they have a professional apply their makeup. This is because when we take photos, the brightness of the flash can make her looked washed out and pale. A professional makeup artist has special types of makeup to apply for a photo session to avoid this. They know what products to use that will last and hold up to all the hugs and kisses on your wedding day. Having a professional makeup artist will not only help to enhance your beauty, but can aid in accentuating or down-playing parts of the face.

So, a professional makeup artist for your wedding day should not be an option, but a necessity that every bride should add to their wedding vendor list. Many makeup artists offer a trial. This is something that you can, perhaps, use for a photo session in order to see if you like their work before your wedding day.

Here is the link of a professional makeup artist, Thalio Beckham, who I highly recommend.
