Kevin and Ayemi Hall

This couple looks so in love, right? It was so special to be a part of Ayemi and Kevin's wedding celebration. Ayemi is a good friend of mine. She was my core group leader, constant encourager and faithful friend. Seeing her marry the man the Lord chose for her was beyond words. I was super excited when she asked me to do her make-up because her beautiful Burmese skin was going to be radiant! She is a gorgeous girl to begin with, but she loves to take a little risk with make-up, so I knew it would be fun. We used a deep espresso cream shadow with a terracotta color pigment on top, which you would think would be bright, right? It was totally mellowed out by the cream shadow and gave her eye an incredible glow. Followed by thick black eyeliner to make her eye pop and some false eyelashes on the outside of her lashes. We gave her a pop of color on her cheeks and a pale pink lip. She was stunning.

The finished look, such a beautiful picture taken by Jeret Slack Photo (click here to go to their web site). Couldn't wait till the end to show this pretty picture!

This is one of her bridesmaids, Tracy, who you may recognize from a couple posts ago. I did Tracy's hair for her wedding. We kind of joke that I am her personal stylist because I have done her hair and make-up for so many occasions.

Probably one of my most favorite pictures of all time. She looks so angelic!

Ayemi and Tracy together!

Thank you Ayemi and Kevin for such an honor to be a part of your day in so many ways. I know the Lord will bless you in marriage. May you serve Him boldly together always.

Laura Hamilton ~ Maid of Honor

I often get calls from a bride or one of her friends asking for my hair and make-up services for a special event, but I wasn't expecting to hear from my sister asking if I would do the hair and make-up for a friend of hers for that friends sister's wedding! Whew... well what a blessing that day would turn out to be. Miss Laura Hamilton was the maid of honor for her sister, Katie's wedding. The sisters (there are 3 of them) are super close and so sweet. Not only do they love each other so much, but they have an incredible love for the Lord.

Laura has the most beautiful red hair and fair, freckled skin. I had a lot of fun bringing out her natural beauty! Below are some fun photos courtesy of Emma Harasick (Emma is a fantastic photographer who has photographed my family numerous times. Check out Emma's web site here for even more photos from this special wedding.).I love when photographer's capture my make-up or make-up kit. It is usually one of the first shots they get in the "preparation" stages. I had been working of course so things were kind of out of place, but I love the beautiful chaos!

Thank you Laura! I loved working with you ~ you were a beautiful maid-of honor!
