What a wedding it was!!!!!

September and any of the Autumn months have to be the best time for a wedding...the colors in the Hudson Valley are breathtaking!

My bride, Kristy, had a perfect day.  Her sisters had their hair done first...of course the bride is last but, most important, to spend as much time on as necessary to be precisely princess-like.

I will be adding photos of her ASAP and for now I am adding these shots for a quick reference as to how I do my art and passion...Makeup, Hair and Nails!

Male Grooming is just as important for the GROOM and his best man and Ushers...a manicure is suggested as those hand/ring shots will be out there forever!  I call them "Men-icures", very masculine and without polish...just a bit of buffing to create a nice healthy looking nail.


As far as hair and Grooming (sans makeup if you will) is a plus to enhance the pictures and the bride likes to see her future husband as handsome as possible too on the wedding day.

More photos for the portfolio!

He even took my camera and did some random documentary of all our decorations...
















This is how it ended...and to all a good night!

Kamille Burris Shoot

I love lips! That and the perfect eyebrows make me happy!

As you can see Kamille has gorgeous full lips.

One thing to be very sure to do pre-lipstick is a lip sloughing...followed by a rich application of a balm. This will help heal and set up a beautiful canvass for lipstick or gloss or both!

Since I mentioned sloughing one may ask, "how should I do that?" One easy way is to use your toothbrush in the morning or at night. Brush your teeth as usual and then run the bristles along the lips. Either pursed together or one at a time. Whatever your natural MO may be.

Another way is to purchase an actual lip exfoliator. There are different ones and one that sticks out in my mind is Katie B's Mineral Lip Polish. Her's is a white-ish lipstick with speckles in it. That will take off the chafed skin that can build up on the lips just like it does on your body.

I also have recommended Bag Balm. This was originally used on Cow's utters to heal and moisturize during the milking process. It contains an antibiotic and is a rich emollient when used on the delicate skin on the lips as well. It's quite affordable for a large decorative can found at your local drug store. If you can't find it...ask.

*Googling it first will help you envision what to look for.

So next time we meet I will expect to see perfect lips and a perfectly plump pout!

A minute taste of tomorrow's dreams...

Yesterday was a spectacular day!

Ric Hicks and Elle Love Capone were HUGE contributors to that event.

Elle was my muse and Ric, photographer and videographer.

On Elle's right hand are the Stilletto Fantasy Nails and on her left are Minx's Gold Chrome. This photo is just one of the brilliant shots Ric took that day!

A video is soon to come so stay tuned...

For now, take a look at my new Web site For Hampton Roads, VA!

**Minx is a revolutionary solid nail coating that utilizes heat to seal the deal. A new alternative to nail polish, Minx is made of flexible film strips that are applied with heat and pressure. Unlike polish, Minx doesn’t chip, smudge or require drying time, and can be custom made to your liking.

The ULTIMATE fashion accessory, Minx is for the trendsetter who wants to stand out from the crowd. They are not for the shy!
