Brides, Photoshoots, and Mitch oh my!

I have not blogged in a while....my apologies. I have been busier than every this year and I have never felt so blessed. I am so thankful to God for giving me such a creative and fun job full of surprises and joy. My main excitement this year has been the increase of wedding business I have had. I truly love the wedding business. I think there is something so amazing about being such a wonderful part of some one's special day. My goal as a the hairstylist/makeup artist for a wedding is to make sure things run smoothly and stress free, to make the bride feel like herself just a more enhanced version, and to make sure the bride looks that way for her entire night consistent from the first picture to the last. I try to get as many pictures as I can from brides, but it is a little harder when they are brides I don't know. I have put together pictures I have gathered from one of my May and June weddings. You may know them :-)

Hollee Harris Claxton. An old friend from back in the day of Upward basketball. A client of mine before moving to Montana and meeting the man of her dreams. Luckily, she got married here in her home town and I got to be a part of her beautiful wedding day. My favorite part of her bridal look, as it is with most my brides was her headband. So unique and so dainty. I love the lace and I love her dress. Her makeup was kept simple and clean and complimented the look beautifully. Here are some snap shots from her big day by the always fabulous photographer Daniel Walley.











Melanie Hoyt Lamberth. I have also known Melanie for a long time and absolutely love doing her hair. She is excellent at styling hair herself so she is always very inspiring. You may remember her twin sister Sarah's bridal look from last year. Melanie already had someone prepared to do her makeup, but I thoroughly enjoyed being able to do her hair for her big day. She wanted a big poof and we teased and teased and teased until it was absolutely perfect. The whole look came together and I was fortunate enough to see her walk down the aisle. Here are some shots from her photographers Ulmer Studios. Oh and congrats on Baby Lamberth on the way :-)






I also had a few photoshoots this past month. I have only received pictures back from one so far. My cousin and upcoming artist Tre Michaels. He is a rock/country artist that is making his way on the music scene. You can hear some of his EPs on his facebook fanpage Tre Michaels. Like and share!
