Aimee





I really loved this up do on Aimee! It suited the theme of her wedding and dress so well. Aimee chose to wear her grandmothers wedding dress. It was beautiful and obviously very vintage. We both wanted the style to reflect that. With a side part and soft "S" pattern wave that continued into pin curls it created that vintage appeal. Aimee's hair accessories were no exception the over sized flower head band and bird cage netting that would later drape the front of her face completed the ensemble.

Heidi





It was such a pleasure taking care of Heidi on her wedding day. She was such an exceptionally sweet person! She was so pleased with how it turned out. I met Heidi that morning to style her hair for her wedding. She was looking for something simple and sweet, such a reflection of her. With only have talked with Heidi over the phone and sharing a couple emails of photos of styles she was interested in, that morning went really well!
I always recommend having a trial a couple weeks before the day of a wedding. Having a trial is a great opportunity for the bride to be. It allows her to meet with the stylist, discuss ideas and questions as well as run through a style she has chosen. Most importantly it should make the bride feel at ease knowing what to expect the day of the wedding.

Kristina





Being a Bride can be a bit overwhelming. With so many expectations for that big day, your hair is no exception. So many brides grow their hair out in order to achieve a look they have been admiring. While having longer hair may give you more styles to choose from, it doesn't necessarily mean it has to limit you on the style you choose. You may have anticipated your hair being a bit longer for the big day, if not don't worry. Creating an illusion is key. Kristina was such a wonderful bride. At the time her hair was shoulder length and her vision was to have it all pinned up. Her only stipulation, an up do that had volume and an illusion she had more then really was there. It turned out beautiful. She was so happy! With just the right placement you can create just about anything.

Attending a Wedding...








Attending a wedding is such a momentous occasion. One that will be captured and preserved in photos for years to come. You'll want to make sure you look your best! Whether it be as a guest or a member of the wedding party. I think its great to do a little pampering for yourself too. These two Bridesmaids pictured above look beautiful.
