While I don’t feel it, I must be getting old. My niece AJ, who was the most darling flowergirl at my wedding ummmmm years ago, got married this past Labor Day weekend. The wedding was held in Philadelphia at the lovely Inn at Penn, which is on the campus of The University of Pennsylvania. AJ, our family and her friends all got ready in a beautiful suite filled with fabulous natural light, perfect for applying her bridal makeup. AJ has gorgeous eyes, so I played them up with silver, charcoal and navy eyeshadows and navy liner. We finished with a bit of pink shimmer under the brows to soften the look. I also did the wedding makeup for my mother, two sisters and my daughter. Suffice it to say that I was more than a bit late getting to family photos. Speaking of which, their very kind photographer Jim Harris just sent me a few photos of the makeup for me to post here. Thank you Jim! Check out his site for contact info and lots of samples of his work..
Here is AJ as I am finishing up her makeup. Love the lashes!
