It's always a fantastic day when you get to drive up and a mountain to get to your venue! If you have never been to the SWAG Country Inn...YOU MUST GO!

Congratulations to them both and a HUGE shout out to to Meriah Mozingo for these fabulous photos!

 Nicole at the Grand Bohemian

I met Nicole on her wedding day, and when I saw her for the first time...I knew she would be STUNNING as a bride. These fabulous photos were taken by Sarah Whitmeyer who is always a pleasure to work with! Check out her beautiful website at  http://www.whitmeyerphotography.com/

Nicole wanted a dramatic eye so we used a lighter color on the lower lid with a dark brown in the crease with a slight shimmer. A few lashes were added for a little more spark!

 This picture below  was taken with my ipad! I needed a quick snapshot of her beautiful makeup!  



MAC Skinfinish always adds a beautiful touch!

Ad Campaign for Desix Clothing, USA

Desix Clothing, 2011
Hair and Makeup

It's always awesome to get the opportunity to work with fabulous photographers, and I had the pleasure of working with Todd Crawford out of Chicago on this shoot for Desix Clothing.

The clothing is made from Alpaca wool, and yes...the Alpaca came for about 30 mintues so we could see what they looked like! It was a fabulous time!

I pulled both hair and makeup for this shoot! I haven't done that since my ATL days, and I had a blast!
