This video goes out to Katie who reminded me of this "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" episode while I was putting on her false lashes. This episode had me rolling when I looked it up. I hope you all enjoy and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Carla David Design Open House
I was fortunate enough to attend a fabulous open house last week hosted by Carla David Design. Carla is a very talented woman who provides custom couture invitations and graphic design services. I was invited by Meaghan Elliott to attend the event and we decided we could make a career out of going to parties...(so much fun). Carla hosted an A-List Holiday Open house and I hope I am able to attend every year. Here are a few snapshots from the photo booth set up by Love Life Images. If you would like to see more about Carla David Design or the contributors to the Open House just click here.

Fall Wedding Trends
Shannon was such a beautiful Bride and in her pictures I have two big Fall Wedding trends to share with you........ Red and Rain. I have seen tons and tons of Red this season, in the form of bridesmaid dresses and accent colors. And unfortunately I have seen a lot of rain too. Since I have been in the wedding industry, every weekend we have a rainy day, my mind automatically goes to thinking about all of the poor brides whose wedding was affected by the weather. So, yes it rained on Shannon's wedding day but she did not let it get her down one bit. She had fortunately planned a church wedding and an indoor reception so nothing had to be changed. She actually got dressed in her gown and had pictures taken at her house, then got into her sweats, rode to the church and got redressed in her gown for the ceremony (It was raining A LOT).
JoAnna and I arrived after the girls finished at the hair salon and got right to work. For the brides who have a limited time frame on the wedding day it works out great to have two artists doing hair and makeup. I love working with JoAnna. It was our first wedding together since she started working with me and she did a wonderful job. She is so talented and so much fun to have around. So here are a few photos of Shannon from her wedding day taken by Ray Persinger Photography. Enjoy!

Still Radiant at the end of the night!

What a Team!
I am so lucky to be working with such fantastic ladies. I already had two weddings booked when Meredeth contacted me for her wedding day makeup and hair, which I was very bummed about. However, she made the wonderful decision to go with Carrie and Kelley even though I was unavailable. Carrie (makeup) and Kelley (hair) did a Fabulous job and Meredith was such a radiant bride. One of my favorite companies,Love Life Images , took care of the photography for the day. Jennifer from Love Life always gets the best moments. These photos make me smile. Congratulations Meredith!

Feature Wedding: Attia and Philip
Kelley and I had such a pleasure working with Attia and her family on her very special wedding day. They had a beautiful traditional Pakistani wedding in Baltimore at the Walters Art Museum. I wanted to share a few photos from the special day that were taken by Roman Grinev Photography. Congratulations you two!
The night before the wedding, Attia had a Henna artist come to the house so that all of the ladies in the bridal party and family could have the beautiful designs.
Attia and her sisters. This photos is priceless.

Bring on the Bridesmaids
Since Nicole had such lovely bridesmaids in her wedding and I did ALL of their makeup, I figured it was only fitting to dedicate a whole blog entry to bridesmaid photos.
Hooray for Bridesmaids!

Starting Them Young!
I had to share this picture of my daughter Tavi from Halloween. If you haven't noticed her trick or treat bag is a Sephora bag which made her outfit even more adorable in my opinion. All of the time I hear that my daughters are so lucky to have a mom who is a makeup artist. Is it wrong that my one year old knows what Sephora is?
