A Christmas Wedding at The High Rocks, Tunbridge

Last weekend's wedding was a very last minute one  - In fact, the head bridesmaid contacted me only two weeks before the wedding and asked me to do make up for the bride and 3 bridesmaids - no trial needed!

Therefore, I turned up with my entire make up kit, ready for a Christmas wedding, and boy did I get one! - The bride wore Red and seeing as all the girls were young, they were happy to experiment with make up and use as much colour as possible!

Yeah for me - two weddings in a row where I get to do what I want! (as long as they like the final result) - Of course, they loved their make up, and now I get to share it with you;
 The Bride wore red
 Base - Supercover, Concealer - Dermacolor, Powder - Supercover Setting Powder, Eyebrows - Kryolan eyebrow powder, Eyelids - Yellow all over, orange / gold liner above and below eyes, concealer pencil on inner eyes, Black liquid eyeliner applied on top eye lid finished by applying false eyelashes and maybelline mascara, Cheeks - supercover orange blush, Lips - Supercover natural liner, supercover lipstick in red with white shimmer and gloss on top. Highlight and shading, finished with Dermacolor Fixing spray to make all make up waterproof and sweat proof.
 The Bridesmaids were in deep purple.
 Base - supercover primer followed by supercover foundation, concealer - Dermacolor, setting powder - supercover, eyelids - Beige base, Green sockets, gold middle finished with black liquid liner (I prefer Rimmel), Maybelline Mascara, concealer pencil applied to the inner eyes, Cheeks - supercover in pink, lips - supercover lip liner, pink lipstick, clear gloss on top, Dermacolor fixing spray to finish off.
 Big eyes!
 supercover primer, foundation - supercover, concealer - dermacolor, powder - supercover setting powder, eyebrows - kryolan eyebrow powder, eyelids - white shimmer, purple sockets, black liquid liner applied to top, purpler liner below eyes, false eyelashes applied, cheeks - supercover pink, lips - supercover natural lip liner followed by pink lipstick and finished with gloss, highlight and shade, fix with dermacolor fixing spray.

Supercover primer followed by foundation - supercover, concealer - dermacolor, powder - supercover fixing powder, eyebrows brushed through and clear mascara applied, eyelids, yellow base, orange sockets, gold centre, dark brown liner applied to upper and lower lids, maybelline mascara, cheeks - supercover peach, lips - supercover liner, rust lipstick, clear gloss on top, highlight and shade - dermacolor fixing powder applied to make all make up waterproof and sweat proof.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !

British Heart Foundation Wear It Beat It Campaign

It was really great to be the hair and make-up artist for the new British Heart Foundation campaign - Wear It. Beat It 2017 -  https://wearitbeatit.bhf.org.uk This was a two day photoshoot working with a wonderful team from  Killer Creative  marketing agency. On the first day I worked with heart survivor's, consultants and surgeons which was great as I got to listen to a lot of amazing stories that people were happy to share.  In fact, this is one of the favourite parts of my work - getting to hear about other people's lives and the fact that people want share with me. On the second day, a lot of male, female and children models arrived to have their hair and make-up done so that the British Heart Foundation had a variety of photos to share for their next big advertising campaign. I really enjoyed being a member of the team that created photos for this campaign for the British Heart Foundation and look ...

How to cover up a tattoo using Camouflage creams

As a cosmetic camouflage practitioner I get asked to cover up scars, burn marks, port wine stains, birth marks, broken capillaries, Rosacea, eczema and all other skin conditions and discolourations.  When I am doing a wedding, I often get asked to cover up a tattoo or two! Below I will outline how you can cover up your own tattoo using Cosmetic camouflage creams. There are many creams available on the market, my product of choice is Dermacolor by Kryolan - this is endorsed by many companies including British Association of British Camouflage and Skin Camouflage Network.  Some of the products are also available on Prescription if your doctor gives you a prescription for the product - otherwise you can buy it direct from Charles H Fox.  1. - tattoo before any cosmetic camouflage creams have been applied. 2. If the tattoo is black, you need to apply a red colour on top of the black to neutralise the colour - I apply the product using a lip brush or liner brush....

ABOUT YOU........  What is your background? I’m Marianne, I’m a young (in my head) photographer who specialises in weddings but who occasionally ganders with music photography as well. I’m self-taught through the school of Google, so essentially I learnt everything I know from online resources and trial and erroring during my film photography hobby days… then one day a friend asked me to photograph their wedding so I picked up a digital camera and haven’t stopped since! I still own 16 film cameras and will be using some of them at the weddings. ABOUT YOUR COMPANY Tell me a bit about your company and what you have to offer to the wedding industry. I’m a wedding photographer offering a fun, relaxed, alternative documentary style of photography! I’m based in London but I adventure all over to shoot weddings. I offer a more modern and quirky service, I think the kind of clients that book me want someone friendly who can blend into their day and be a part of it ra...
