One of the things I truly love and get tickled about is how many amazing things I find out about my brides. When I first met the breathtaking Stephanie in person, I discovered she had the most beautiful freckles and was elated when she said she was cool with them being left visible! It is no easy task to design a flawless face while leaving freckles exposed! Extreme care and intentional placement and coverage is a MUST! Second, Stephanie and her squad like to rap and they spit these fire bars to a song they created and I just had such a ball, fascinated at these beautiful women coming together rhyming while rallying around their sister and friend! Stephanie was an easy peasy bride who literally sat back, no requests and just trusted me to design a look to take her beauty over the edge! Steph thank you for the honor of taking this journey with you! Wishing you and Rick endless love, laughter and passion. Xo . .
