If you're new here, I should let you know I only have one rule when you're in my chair.
There's no self deprecation.
I get it. Whether we indulge in negative self-speak to break the ice or make light of deep insecurities, there's always a real life cost to giving yourself a harsh review. And the purse paying that toll is your self esteem.
My whole philosophy when it comes to makeup, hair and beauty therapy is that BEAUTY IS A FEELING (... and I can tell you I've been shouting that from the rooftops; written it in custom neon; and made it my motto WAY before a certain pillow talk creating makeup artist started saying it)
.
It's the boost you get when the reflection in the mirror is you on your very best day.
So the next time you put yourself down, with our without a thinking, take a minute to counterbalance and give your ego a little boost.
Because Beauty Is A Feeling.
Three whole weeks since beautiful Jordan said I Do.

There are a few moments I have genuine FOMO over when it comes to weddings:
💛that moment you lock eyes down the aisle
💛first kiss
💛 first dance
💛 and GOLDEN HOUR
For a makeup artist, light 🌅💡 ☀️ is everything!
If you are fortunate enough to get Golden Hour shots, PLEASE send them on to your (H)MUA. Forgive the pun, but those pics are gold dust for us.
Looking forward to chasing the GOLDEN HOUR light next week at Rise Hall with @photobombworkshops & @unveiledmag
Don’t fall foul of FOMO. Come join us. xx

TOP TIPS INCOMING
You know what never ceases to crack me up?
When I meet a bride they're (usually) planning a wedding for the very first time.
There are exceptions to that rule, but as someone who has attended more than 250 wedding mornings so far, I thought it might be an idea to start sharing a few of my TOP TIPS.
This is likely to just be the first instalment, so PLEASE get some questions in the comments or in my DMs, because I'm a venerable fount of knowledge when it comes to bridal prep.
More tips to come. xx

It’s been a little bit busy over in hair & makeup HQ so I’m behind on sharing this beaut!!
In case you hadn’t heard, @photobombworkshops is the brainchild of @hannahbrookephoto & yours truly. We have some BIG plans for the workshops going forward and they extend to more than just photographers.
