Cheshire Hair & Makeup

Rhoda has to be one of my favourite makeups this season -

We used the Naked 2 Urban Decay Palette with a splash of Illamasqua's Pure pigment in furore, False Lashes and lashings of mascara - more importantly Waterproof mascara!

Thats all your getting; don't want to give away too many secrets...

Photograher Andy Corke mentioned a yearly festival to me in Macclesfield, The Barnaby Festival and was keen to do something a - little - bit - different :) Needless to say i was quite happy that he was taking a route down quirky road and began sketching ideas for a futuristic shoot.

Disappointingly, one of our models didnt turn up on the day so a hair piece i made never got used (but that has not been forgotten!) but a close friend of mine, Holly, owner of Dream Dress Bridal stepped in to help out...

I've never used prosthetics, so i used this shoot to have my first little play around...

One of my favourites which got Gold with the SWPP!

Very excited to purchase my copy of 'BRIDE' yesterday!

I was welcomed to a team of amazing suppliers in the wedding industry put together by WeddingLink.

A bright and early start - in some not so nice weather at the very beautiful and swanky wedding venue Colshaw Hall Where Mat & his team from the award winning Red Floral Architecture had already began to work their magic. 
                                       

Then once i'd finished curling, painting, adding wefts and wefts of hair extensions it was time to get hair accessories at the ready - enter Ann McKaveney; Eleventh Heaven and The GOWNS, precisely place, pinned & laced by Lucy of The Wedding Shop...    Then that only left team duo Lesley & Shaun Meredith to start shooting and bringing the lovely Holly Johnson in to the light!

 AND

Having a nosey through the rest of the mag, i found not one but TWO other features i worked on...
