Weddings

It's so important that for your wedding that you feel true to you, that's why I love doing bridal make-up. I get to be part of bringing your personality to life with my creative skills, which was definitely a big part of this weeks wedding feature. Bride Kitty is a someone who comes to mind when you’re thinking about individuality and style, which if you’ve been following along with my new brand Untitled No 1, you would know is quite literally what I’m all about. “Be your own no 1” is the core ethos of what we do at Untilted No 1, and I couldn’t help but feel artistically refreshed...

What a bride, what a wedding! Bride Hannah exuded a chic and cool energy, as you scroll through the amazing previews from Katy Melling you can tell that energy effortlessly flowed throughout the rest of her special day tying the knot with now husband Will. What I loved about working with Hannah for her bridal makeup was that her style for the day was the epitome of simplicity at it's very best. That's not to say there wasn't attention to detailing, it meant there was more attention to get those simple touches refined to perfection. It was a beautiful late September's day as Hannah...

Natalie's style and vision felt so clear as we finished our trial and I looked back down to my notes. Detailed descriptions of each feature left no stone unturned and I knew exactly all the perfect tools for the job to bring this beautiful look to life for her. When her wedding morning came around we got to work using the holy trifecta of skin prep products because it's the most important step for a successful look. Waso Quick Matte Moisturizer left Natalie's skin hydrated but oil-free, a key step for those hot weather weddings. Ariane Poole's Pore Perfecting Face Primer to double down...

I loved the trip to the Scottish Borders to be part of Caroline & Shea's wedding. Held in the beautiful Chirnside/ Kelso area, this part of the country never fails to impress me and makes for an idyllic wedding day backdrop. With the weather blessing the lovely couple with a warm glorious day the countryside setting truly came to life under the warm glow of the sun. A private wedding took place on the family farm where I endeavoured to replicate the aforementioned glow from the sunshine in Caroline's bridal make-up. It was important to Caroline her look was in keeping with the outdoor location...

"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication " -Leonardo da Vinci     As I am sat writing this blog, Jade and her husband are soaking up their post wedding bliss whilst honeymooning in Italy. With italy in ming and reflecting on Jade's stunning wedding style I couldn't help but think this quote by Da Vinci summed up this first look at their wedding album so well.     I had met Jade many years ago at her best friends wedding so it was a huge compliment to me that she had seen my style of make-up and wanted it for her own wedding. She is all about...

I might be biased, but this week I've got a shoot to share with you from the best bridal dream team the North East has to offer! I love working with these two on shoots and weddings, it's always such a relaxed vibe, good laugh and the end results are always exactly what I envisioned. I think the results here speak for themselves at both of their talents. You might recognise the photography style from last weeks blog, as it's none other than Lee Scullion I'm talking about who also shot the wonderful Leaf for her wedding. The member of our creative trio is Gareth Lambert, who never fails...

Where do I begin with the wedding of Mr and Mrs Goddard? As I am writing this blog post and scheduling it to go out, it is exactly two years ago we were put into that first fateful lockdown and all weddings were postponed until further notice. It feels like so much longer now as we all start to catch up with our new normal and almost everyone who has faced a postponement has finally said their vows. The mad rush to fit every Bride in and the non-stop work I have been ever so grateful for to get back on my feet, it's been a whirlwind.   Amongst that whirlwind was the wonderful...

Sometimes the pictures say more than my words ever could, and that's how I feel looking back over photo's from The Northern Wedding Show with Belle Bridal. So I will keep it short and sweet with just a mention of how fantastic each of the make-up sponsors were! It was an amazing weekend to be part of as always, each year the event comes around and I continue to be honored with creating make-up looks for the catwalk shows between manning my own stall. This year with the backing of three fantastic make-up sponsors the catwalk looked better than ever before.   Steamcream provided us with...
