2013 Wedding Hair and Makeup Looks!



We recently had the pleasure of hosting a photo shoot with the fabulous photographer Vanessa Hunt. We gathered some lovelies, grabbed a few hot dresses and let the magic happen. While the Verde team does a large amount of weddings, it was great to get some very deliberate beauty shots without the stress of it actually being someone's big day. I'll go through a few of the looks and just show off the rest!!

First up we have Jill with this gorgeous bright red-into-blonde ombre (compliments or Taylor Galvin). First we started Jill's hair curled down with a waterfall braid. At this point her makeup was soft, with a slight cat eye. For some variation we popped in a colorful blue flower to make the color really sing. Every bride needs something blue! Our next look was a soft romantic side swept 'do with a retro flare. The red lip really works with this look. Red hair with a red lip you ask? It looks great! Reds just need to not clash, like a pink-red and an orange-red may not work, but that certainly isn't the case here. We took Jill out in the snow for a little more drama!









Next up we were lucky enough to have Jess. Jess has the kind of hair people dream of having. Thick, shinny, and looks great all the time. We had a lot of fun styling her up. First, we did a 'non-curly' updo. People forget they don't have to have a million curls to have an elegant romantic hair style. Her makeup is soft and smokey and we built it a little as we go. We went down, half up, and all up for her curled look to show the versatility. Hope you love it like we do!

















Ashley was our next model. She provides a great example of styling fine hair to make it look full. Ashley's look started down and then evolved into a soft and sweet centered updo. We chose soft makeup to complete her look. Enjoy!






Lastly, we had beautiful Chrissy. Chrissy hair is thick, slippery, and shoulder shoulder length. We tried a few looks on Chrissy and we think she was radiant!
