I am a massive fan on the golden era of Hollywood. My Gran brought me up on the old musicals and a lot of my passion for makeup stems from watching Rita Hayworth, Bette Grable and  Marilyn Monroe back in the day and studying their makeup. 

So when Clare came to see me said what she had in mind I was so happy. Half way through her trial she had a sneaky peak at how her eyes were looking and cried when she saw her liner. She said she just felt so confident & happy that I knew exactly what she wanted. 

Clare looked unbelievable with the Hollywood look, she suited it perfectly with her platinum blonde hair as I'm sure you'll agree! What a bombshell! 

Marilyn eat your heart out!

Special thanks to Jules Barron for the stunning images!

2 016 - Wow what a year it was.

Whilst finally putting this post together and looking back at all the amazing moments I've had in 2016 just reminds me how lucky I am to do what I do. Its not just that I get to 'work' in some of the most beautfiul venues around the North East and Yorkshire, surrounded by gorgeous flowers, stunning wedding gowns, shoes, and of course loads of makeup but more importantly getting to work in the special inimate atmosphere that a wedding morning brings, full of laughter and love. Being able to calm a brides nerves and giving her the confidence to walk down the ailse has got to be the best bit for me; I completely love what I do and hope that my passion shines through in my work.  

Below are some of my brides that I've had the pleasure to work with last year and I have also added in some of the beautiful images from shoots I have worked on. I must also say a huge thank you to all of the amazing photographers I have worked with who have given me permission to use these images. (Please see underneath each picture for the credit.) Without them I could not show my work properly, as I am certainly no photographer!

I hope you enjoy looking through these images. A huge thank you to all the amazing brides, clients, fellow wedding suppliers I met in 2016, it was a blast!

Roll on 2017!
