A year in the life of Make up artist Amy Prifti - 2014

Wow, what an amazing 2014 this has been!



As well as starting up my own Make up Academy where I have met lots of lovely people, some of whom went on to work along side me and now have their own make up business which I am so proud to be a part of.

I still have my Wedding Hair and Make up business  which I love doing and feel privileged to be a part of any brides big day.

On top to that I have my self employed hair, make up business and beauty business, make and style wigs for various theatre productions and am lucky enough to work at Glyndebourne Opera House during their season in Sussex as well as being the hair stylist for Annabelle's Wigs and having so many fab experiences this year that I don't think I could list them all!

Some of my highlights have been;
CATWALKS
Designing the hair and make up for Isaac Raymond Fashion along with Fran Carter where we was joined by a whole team of make up artists and hair stylists to create all the looks needed for the show.

Styling wigs at the Mia Pichi Catwalk with Annabelle's wigs for Inanch Hair

PHOTO SHOOTS

I have been lucky enough to work on so many photo shoots this year so am finding it pretty hard to narrow down my highlights but top on my list would have to be this shoot taken at Amberley Castle in May with the mega talented costume designer Chrissie Nicholson-Wild 


This was a really special shoot for me and will remain strongly in my memories for years to come. Not only because of the amazing dresses that Chrissie lovingly created but because of the team of people I had the pleasure of working with  being so relaxed, professional and making the whole day fun (new friendships were made) plus the location being extra amazing. (It's a real friggin castle that you get to stay in and walk around freely)
Photographer - David Long, Exposure Studios London
Hair pieces - Annabelle's Wigs

It is always a joy to work with photographer John Farrar and we created lots of fun looks on various models.
 Models; Emily Bunclark, Charlie Ray, PortiaVictoria, Faith Oboe

I would like to thank everyone who I worked with this year for making it such a great, creative and colourful year and I am really looking forward to working with new and old creatives in 2015.

Hope you all have a good one :-) - Amy Prifti  - Hair and make up Artist

How to choose a photographer for your wedding day - Introducing Marianne Chua

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...

Brand New Wedding Website

Hello, I hope you like my new look website. This has been quite a time coming as I have been working with my web people for the majority of the year working on the site. I am now proud to announce that my new site is up and running - and I am extremely proud of it. I appreciate all of your comments and will be running a very exciting competition very soon. In the meantime, I hope you will have an explore around my site and leave any feedback. My website started off with humble beginnings in 2003. I asked my cousin to design it.  It was very simple and got straight to the point! Then in 2010 I decided that I needed a re-design.  This is when I researched web people and decided upon using Hope and Creed .  They offer a friendly, relaxed service and are extremely informative throughout the entire process.   By the end of 2012 I was getting a little bit sick and tired of pink! I loved my website, but it was a website that ONLY showed my weddi...

Harry Derbidge Boutique - Harry's World

Thursday was a great fun day spent with Annabelle's Wigs; Harry Derbidge recently got in touch with Annabelle's Wigs with a photo and asked if four wigs could be made up for his shop mannequins in his Boutique in Essex. 'Harry's World' The wigs arrived so we jumped in the car to take them up, style them and to start a new 'hairy' trend with mannequins;                                                Meet Barbara and Wendy - Harry's mannequins with their new hair...... extra high with extra length! Harry checking out the fringe..... he is a happy, happy chappie!                                ...
