Choosing the right makeup for your wedding is crucial, and for the best results, it’s a good idea to use a makeup professional who knows something about wedding photography.
Weddings are so very special and planning one can take months with all the details involved. One detail you don’t want to overlook is makeup. When choosing the style of makeup style for your wedding you want to make sure you look updated and use the right colors.
Beauty and the Bride
The ultimate makeup application for a bride should be polished and formal without taking away from her natural beauty. The right makeup for wedding photography creates refinement and pushes a look forward with natural simplicity and a bridal-trendy look. Using soft colors and warm undertones are key to complimenting the bride’s own style and skin tones, which will photograph beautifully. Makeup professionals have a keen eye to detail, color balance and can help the bride and her wedding party look their best in photographs.
When a bride comes in to our studio for a consultation, we always ask them what they want to look like and what they are looking for. Usually girls know what they want but just don’t know how to achieve it; the consultation should be a collaboration of what the bride truly wants and what the artist suggests. A wedding is a formal event so being finished, flawless, and a little above natural should be the goal, all while looking like one’s self, albeit “soft and glowing.”
Plan as we might, unforeseen wedding day crises may pop up—from unwanted blemishes to under-eye circles. Luckily, the bride-to-be can seek out beauty professionals who will assist her in looking her best and making her special day effortless.
Too many bridal pictures are ruined by making simple mistakes, like by wearing the wrong color foundation or purple colored eye shadow, instead of soft and natural tones that enhance the beauty of the bride.
Remember, a lot of pictures will be taken on this special day, so wearing the correct makeup colors is of vital importance.
