Yes. This a red-carpet service upgrade that many of our brides simply fall in love with. Unlike traditional makeup, airbrushing sprays a fine mist so the makeup blends evenly on the skin. Our foundations provide the flawless coverage of your preference (from sheer to full) and minimizes skin imperfections. The result is a natural and flawless finish. Airbrush is long lasting, up to 12 hours and HD quality.

For the bride we prefer 1 hour. This gives us plenty of time for an exceptional attention to detail so your closeups come out great.
This is completely up to the bride. We encourage the bride to do research to get an idea of what she is looking for and even bring in pictures of reference. This will help your makeup artist understand more of what look you’re wishing to achieve. This is also when a trial comes in handy. For looks, we have done everything from natural to very glamorous or even themed. The key is we listen closely to what the bride wants and elaborate on that. We typically find that most brides want to still look like themselves, just a more perfected version.

Wedding Hair
Be sure to bring any items that will be in your hair such as a headband, veil, or other hair adornments. Also bring a photo of the dress and any pictures you think might be useful in explaining what look you want.
Aside from creativity, skill, and professionalism, a great stylist is going to be considering a lot more than just your hair! They are going to be focusing on your face shape, hair type, humidity conditions, hair props, dress cut, and more! No matter what style you might have your heart set on, you should always carefully consider your stylists suggestions.
Wash your hair the day before or the morning of the wedding. Wear button down blouse, tube top or a deep v-neck shirt and bring your hair accessories such as veil or tiara!. For updos, be sure your hair is dry and clean. Everyone should arrive with dry hair because blow drying takes time and is considered an added service. If you are getting the extra service blow dry, then you will need to wash your hair and leave it damp and ready for styling.
