Trashing the Dress
Friday, October 9, 2009 at 3:16PM A few weeks ago, Kelly Sweet asked me to do makeup for a 'Trash the Dress' session she was shooting with a model. Kelly let me take the creative reins when it came to Stephanie's overall makeup look. Playing off the current fall trends, Stephanie's complexion and the ivory dress she was about to trash, we decided on a glossy/metallic eye, luminous apricot cheeks all complemented with a rich berry lip. (And if you read below, you'll see a few of the photos gained some popularity online :)
Stephanie, you made an absolutely radiant bride trashing the dress and Kelly, I'm continually amazed with your beautiful work! Thanks for allowing me to collaborate on this one! You can see more photos on Kelly's blog here.
