Bridal Hair and Makeup: Amanda

The pre-wedding photography looks I did for sweet Amanda.
She is a soft spoken and a very easy going bride to be. :)

When I asked how she would like her looks to be like during the trial, she totally left it all for me to decide!

You know this makes me (nervous) as I usually would prefer the girls to at least show me a sample of their preferred looks. Like Korean-ish or Taiwan-ish? OR maybe even European-ish????????????????

After all it IS their big day and I really would want them to be comfortable in what they are having.
And don't we always know that we girls can be rather indecisive and fickle???? (Me included!!) Hahhahhahha

Anyways, she just shrugged and told me to decide for her.

Tadah! I was amazed even at her transformation, as she totally looks different when she is bare faced! And I evened out her eyelids with tape.

Day bridal look for Amanda
 Couldn't get a pic of the hairstyle as it was early morning and the lighting is pretty dim. Ahhhhhh neverminddd......

Night Bridal look for Amanda

Night Bridal look for Amanda

I gave her a light smoky blue eye colour as her evening wear is blue. Just so we get a bit matchy-matchy here.
*Note: It is never a must to match your colours. So don't go restricting yourselves!

Doesn't she remind you of a pin-up girl look?
FYI: I love Pin-up girls! (My namecard has a pin-up girl, my kitchen has a few pin-up girl decors)

Lastly a sneak preview of her photo shot by Avenue 8



So gorgeous that I can't wait for Amanda to send the rest of the pictures to me!

Xoxo

Bridal Hair and Makeup for Yvonne


Lovely bride Yvonne, who is always all smiles and with a great personality to match. 
Thank you for your utmost trust!! :)


First look of the day:



It took me sometime to try to arrange the flowers prettily in Yvonne's hair, especially not when I'm still trying to wake up, early in the morning.... The stress DID wake me up though!
Definitely much harder than just sticking on a hair accessory! I'm glad I did it and without delay to the whole schedule! *PHEW!

Second evening look
Flowers in hair interlaced


This style is also stressful  as I cannot stick pins that are bigger than these dainty flowers. They have to be placed strategically around the braid without falling out and look nice all at the same time! Ahhhhhhh!!!
Visible pins all through are not acceptable and so I told Yvonne, " No vigorous head shaking for the night ok!" Hahahahah


Hair and makeup for Yvonne's Studio shoot



This is Yvonne getting ready for her studio photo shoot and this last pic shows her smiling beautifully at her husband. Awwww

I am forever amazed by the wonders of makeup.

I sometimes AM GUILTY of being LAZYyyyyy :(
Well it's OK. Sometimes we have our bad days. But make it only "sometimes" ok?????
