October Update!

October didn't start too well I was in a car accident which was quite scary and my beloved MX5 was written off, happily I now have a replacement one : )

We have had some lovely sunny and mild autumn days which has been lovely to top up my Vitamin D and enjoy walks with my doggies.  As you can see Lucas has been on top form for his cute poodle poses this month too!

As the recommended Make-up artist at Luton Hoo hotel I attended the wedding showcase evening and I am looking forward to working at lots of weddings there over the coming months.

I had my first wedding at Bassmead Manor Barns beautifying Rebecca, her mum and maids.  It was a great morning and a fabulous venue to work in. http://www.bassmeadmanorbarns-weddings.co.uk

I did the hair and make-up at a video fitness shoot in Bedford for three models for three days in a stunning barn location house.

I am off on holiday's soon to recharge after a very busy year!

Siobhan's South farm Wedding!

On 13th September I did the bridal make-up for Siobhan and her mum at South farm, Royston.

It is one of my favourite wedding venues and I am lucky enough to work here often as a recommended Make-up artist.

On this occasion I worked alongside hairstylist Tina Crossley at http://www.beautifulhair4weddings.co.uk who created an elegant and stunning updo for Siobhan's big day!

The beautiful photography and photo credits here are all thanks to the fabulous James Rouse at https://www.jamesrouse.com

 I just love the drive into South farm it it just perfect!

 A lovely light and spacious bridal suite to enjoy some pre-wedding pampering.

I love the lilac eyeshadows we went for to bring out Siobhan's beautiful eyes.

 Cant leave mum out!

My favourite shot, hair and make-up complete and time to get into the wedding dress!
