Weddings

Last weekend I wrapped up the Autumn Wedding Season for 2022. It was big and it was awesome! Makeup artists and hairdressers play such a huge part on a wedding day, not because of the work they do, but the presence and vibe they bring along to the day. At most weddings, hair and makeup are with the bridal party from 7am all the way through to just before the ceremony. That’s a long time to listen to me busting out one dad joke after another #takeadayoffson. It’s a privilege and honour to be a part of someone’s special day, so I want to say a huge thank you to all my beautiful autumn Brides – Dennie, Sharnie, Kira, Jess, Maddy, Mariah, Emma, Mahaila, Jade, Tegan, Jade and Charlotte for inviting me along. I cant wait to see what my Spring Brides have for me x

Sarah & Jon

Sarah and her gorgeous maids. We had ten beautiful faces to work on for Sarah’s April Wedding last year. My beautiful friend @endessamakeupartist assisted me to get all these maids, as well as a couple of Mums, ready by midday. If you have a large Bridal party please get in touch as early as you can. I often get Endessa to assist me on large Bridal parties, she has a similar natural style to me and 30 years experience in beauty and makeup. I know, hard to believe when she doesn’t look a day over 21 #doublethebogans#executivebogan

Elle & Matt

See, you would be mistaken for thinking this is a beautifully styled Wedding shoot for Hello May magazine. In fact, it’s actually the ridiculously good looking Bridal Party of Elle and Matt from their May wedding last year. I absolutely love the autumn tones of the bridal party, the girls have pulled off mismatched dresses to perfection 👌

Colly & Dan

This was hands down the best wedding that I have ever had the honour of being a part of. This is Colly, my best mate of 36 years. It was my absolute honour to be her makeup artist #nopressure and stand beside her as she married the man of her dreams.
It was also a great day for the “Wives of Dan with Surnames You’ll Be Spelling for the Rest of Your Life” Club, it was wonderful to gain another member. Congratulations Mrs Beresowskyj!

Jessie & Ben

I was lucky enough to do Jessie’s makeup for her wedding in April last year. And when I say lucky, I mean I rocked up at the wrong accommodation, waking ol love up at 7am on a Saturday morning. There was a serious amount of confusion, partly because she was still half asleep (and expecting a makeup artist at 11am), and partly because I was trying to math in my head how I was going to do 7 beautiful faces in two hours. We finally established that her makeup artist was indeed arriving at 11am, and I was indeed at the wrong address, and found my beautiful bride two doors down 🤷🤦

Lara & Dylan

The absolutely stunning Lara on her Wedding Day earlier this year, 12321 #numbersgal
I love everything about Lara’s look for her special day – soft, elegant, natural and timeless. It matched Lara’s personality perfectly, one of the sweetest, most beautiful humans you’ll ever meet. Lara’s gorgeous hair was styled by the lovely @withabbyrowe . It was a pleasure to spend the morning with Lara and her beautiful bridesmaids.
Side note, if you are after some awesome hair accessories head over to @siriusbylara, not only gorgeous, but talented as well.

Maddi & Shawn

Ahhhh, Maddi and Shawn’s epic Sandon wedding, hands down the most eventful and adventurous Wedding I have done to date. The location, the other side of Sandon River, is very remote and accessed by boat. I don’t like boats. Like I really, really don’t like boats. When I arrived it was absolutely bucketing down rain, torrential, blowing a gale in every direction. You could not have dreamt a worst scenario for someone that really, really, doesn’t like boats. I had to load all my gear, and myself, into a small boat to be transported to the location. By the time I got there, I was drenched from head to toe and had to do the entire wedding dripping wet. It poured down rain all morning, but thankfully the sun came out just before the ceremony and it was an absolute cracker of an afternoon. Unfortunately by the time I was transported by boat back to the mainland, the single road out was completely flooded from the downpour. Good times.
