Wedding Makeup: What about it?

I often get asked why brides should pay to have their makeup professionally done for their wedding. It is true that you, a friend or a relative that knows the basics can do a great makeup job. What is important to keep in mind is that a professional makeup artist will mean the difference between a basic look and a stunning wedding look.

Natalia's experience includes work for
Chanel, Clinique & MAC.

A professional makeup artist understands all the elements of video/photographic makeup. She knows how your makeup will be affected according to camera techniques, lighting, film stocks and exposure. Your artist will work with colors and pigments that complement your skin, style and personality.

A professional artist will meet with you for a trial consultation at least a couple of months before the wedding, and will make recommendations on the best ways to prepare your skin for your wedding day. She will address any concerns and/or allergies that you might have to products or chemicals. She should be able to cover any scars, marks or tattoos you don't want to show.

Lastly, working with a professional will put you and your loved ones at ease on your big day. I often get thank you notes from brides telling me how calm they felt for having me around in the last minutes before walking down the aisle.

To me, allowing yourself to look absolutely radiant on your wedding day is not a luxury, it is an absolute must!

Philosophy

After many years and over 175 weddings, I still get excited when I see a bride ready to walk down the aisle. And that is why I approach every wedding with the individual care, enthusiasm, and personal attention a bride deserves on her special day!

"Your wedding is one of the most
important and beautiful days of your life."

My philosophy as an artist is to create a warm, natural makeup by using a palette of colors and textures that complement your unique skin tone, complexion and facial structure. Using only the finest products, I work to accentuate your most beautiful features, always avoiding an overly made-up look.

Still, you are the most important person in the room. You need to feel comfortable and radiant. I welcome and value your input. I listen, because my job is to achieve the look you have always dreamed of for your wedding day.
