On this weeks blog post I have planned to speak to all you lovely brides about 1950’s Vintage Makeup.
I did this Photoshoot with Elena back last summer and it was a shoot that has a very classic feel. It was held at the beautiful Shottle Hall Venue on a gorgeous summers day.
For this shoot we aimed at doing a 1950’s look which complimented the dress from ‘Baroque Couture’. From the soft round neckline to the lace arms, it fitted in perfect with the 1950s theme.
All vintage looks seem to get taken back to the 1950’s, as that was an era known for the black liner and red lip. How can you forget?
Vintage themed weddings are timeless and so are the make-up and hair styles, without them it wouldn’t create that themed vibe so make-up is a very important part.
You want to look back at your wedding album and notice the effort put into getting your dream vintage wedding.This classic theme, is a look that gets requested for lots of vintage weddings. Everyone wants that fresh flawless skin with the sleek black flick and velvet red lip! (Some brides don’t always want to take it that extreme)
