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 🤷🤦

Kayli

My last portfolio piece before lockdown 😢 This look was inspired by the “Midnight Max’d” look in the @raemorrismakeup Makeup Masterclass book. The grey and silver tones fighting against the chocolate brown of Kayli’s eyes to enhance them and really make them pop!

Bookings


Oh how quickly things can go from ‘flat out like a lizard drinking’ to ‘dont remember how to makeup’. Thanks to Covi-d and the good ol lockdownaroony I have had a number of Wedding postponements for the upcoming spring wedding season 😞 I really feel for my Brides that have had to make the tough decision to postpone their special day.
Unfortunately I have been unable to accommodate a lot of my postponed Brides on their chosen date next year as I’m already booked. This is extremely disappointing for me and I’m sure for my Brides as well. I understand we are all in the same boat, but I can’t help feeling defeated at this point.

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.

If you are after some “Real Wedding” inspo, head over to the Yamba Weddings website, they have a real weddings section showcasing the beautiful Yamba area. Here’s a snippet from a recent interview I did with them.

“What do you love so much about being part of someone’s wedding day?

It’s an honour to be asked to be a part of a Brides wedding day. To be trusted to make the Bride look her very best for such a special day. I love the entire vibe of a wedding day. The excitement, the nerves, the flowers, the dresses, the hair, the moment when everything comes together, the squeals, the laughter, the tears, all of it. Each wedding day is different, that’s one of the things I love about my job. A different location, atmosphere and group of girls – no two weddings are the same.”

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.
