I am not only a professional photographer but I have the added advantage of being a former hairstylist and make up specialist. Whether or not you usually wear makeup, there are good reasons for wearing it on your wedding day. Properly applied makeup will greatly enhance your appearance, particularly in the many photographs that will be taken in the course of your special day.

I don?t need to tell you how important it is to get this right, that?s why my first rule of makeup is research. Yes research. Look through magazines, surf the web, collect images of bride?s makeup that you like. Make sure you?re choosing brides who have the same colouring, eye, hair, and skin as you. The makeup on a cool ash blue eyed blond will be unlikely to suit you if you?re an olive skinned dark haired beauty. Keep your makeup book to show your makeup artist, it?s much easier for them to duplicate the look you want from a photo than your imagination.
Will you do your own makeup or hire a makeup artist? Will you go to a salon or have the artist come to you? The answer will depend on your budget. If you?d like a makeup artist but are on a tight budget check out one of the beauty schools, usually their students are looking for experience and have very reasonable rates. In addition many high end makeup counters will provide a makeup session gratis with the purchase of products. This is also great way to try new looks inexpensively.
Unless you regularly get your make up done at a salon or wear full face makeup you probably don?t know all the options and looks available to you, nor do you know how certain makeup will affect your skin. You don?t want to find out on your wedding day that the pigment in that blush you loved at the store causes you to break out in hives. That is why you need to rehearse your look before your wedding day. Whether you are doing your own makeup or someone else the key is to have a test run. You don?t want any surprises on your big day.
