It’s cold, wet, and snowy outside and I’m on the couch, numb from the dentist, getting lost in dreamy details of European inspired eleganza, like this stunning @moniquelhuillier gown and florals by @wildpollen 🖤 Featured in @stylemepretty Photography/Host @madelinetrentphotography Creative Direction/Styling @eastmadeco Florist @wildpollen Hair/Makeup @caitlynmeyermua Calligraphy @curvedandco Cake @jisoocakedesign Gowns @verawang @moniquelhuillierbride @berta @oscardelarenta Gown Boutique @carinesbridal Accessories @janicetan_co Rings @victorbarbonejewelry Tabletop Rentals @maisondecarine Chairs & Furniture @smthingvintage Table Linens @bbjlinen Bride Model @katie_andersen_ via @theartistagency Groom Model @markyeattes Ribbons @eastcoasttrimming Styling Surfaces @locustcollection Styling Props @curatedbehavior Venue @eventsatandersonhouse ⁣ #baltimorebridalmakeup #baltimorebridalhair #baltimoreweddings #baltimorebride #dmvbride #dmvwedding #dcbride #dcwedding #dcbridalmakeup #dcbridalhair #bridalhairandmakeup #bridalartist (at Larz Anderson House) https://www.instagram.com/p/CK2Oad1j7g_/?igshid=xr4a2ceogzjo

Photographers either love me or hate me — I’m always flying in between shots, adjusting the hair, making sure not one strand is out of place. One thing we can agree on, though — if you hated me during the shoot, you loved me when the photos came back 💁🏼‍♀️💁🏼‍♀️💁🏼‍♀️ Peep this shot (sans me) and many more, currently on @stylemepretty in a feature about how to bring European elegance to weddings in the US!

One of the things keeping me the most motivated in gaining back my mobility post surgery is looking back at photos and videos of my past work, anticipating all the weddings and projects to come. None of us know what next year, or even the next few months, will look like, and I swear I will never complain about having to wear a mask and fogged up glasses again — I just want to get back to creating beautiful things and beautiful memories with my clients and friends. ⁣ Photo by @michaelandcarina Bride @kirstenburton_ Planning/Styling @eastmadeco Venue @foxfiremonkton ⁣ #baltimorebridalmakeup #baltimorebridalhair #baltimoreweddings #baltimorebride #dmvbride #dmvwedding #bridalhairandmakeup (at Foxfire Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/CITzqmNjfgl/?igshid=x4a55pnq94y6

I’ve been spending a lot of time examining my ‘brand’ the last week or so. ⁣ Asking myself things like : ⁣ What makes me ‘me’? What is my brand identity? Or the fabric of my company? What sets my services apart from other beauty vendors? What is the most important takeaway for each client? How do I share or teach these elements of myself with others? ⁣ It’s a strange thing to view yourself from an outside lens, explaining the things you do that just come naturally to you, and why. It’s also pretty self-affirming. It reminds me why I love what I do, what it took for me to get here, and how much the connections I’ve made — both with my clients and other vendors — mean to me. And I’m feeling pretty grateful. ⁣ Photo by @jessaschifilliti from our Dutch Masters inspired shoot for @thehybridco in Nashville last spring — ⁣ Host @sophiekayephotography Creative Direction & Styling @eastmadeco Florist @navafloral Hair & Makeup @caitlynmeyermua Calligraphy @curvedandco Cakes @trouvaillebakery Gowns @marchesafashion Shoes @bellabelleshoes Rings @victorbarbonejewelry Backdrops and Styling Surfaces @jrd_artshop Styling Props @curatedbehavior Rentals @pleasebeseatedrentals Linens @libertypartyrental Candles @thefloralsociety Models @amaxagency Venue @westlightstudios ⁣ ⁣ #baltimorebridalmakeup #baltimorebridalhair #baltimoreweddings #baltimorebride #dmvbride #dmvwedding #dcweddings #dcbride #dcbridalmakeup #dcbridalhair #bridalhairandmakeup #bridalartist https://www.instagram.com/p/CH_Cc19j3TP/?igshid=hh7bt954crbd

Looking forward to more days like this 🖤 ⁣ When describing my Concierge Services, I often begin by telling my brides that I’ll treat them like I would a model on a shoot — assisting during photos, repositioning the dress and/or hair, catching renegade tears, and touching up where needed. Which I do, but it’s so much more than that. ⁣ Bridal Concierge services extend the luxury experience past initial hair and makeup services, to not only make my brides feel like a queen on their most important day, but also to protect the investment they’ve already made. ⁣ On a day when so much is going on, it’s normal for a bride to feel overwhelmed, or have moments of anxiety. My services experience is curated to focus solely on the bride, anticipating her needs, and supporting her throughout our time together. ⁣ When recalling their wedding day, many of my brides have referred to me as their emotional support animal, and I am so here for that. ⁣ Photography/Host @madelinetrentphotography Creative Direction/Styling @eastmadeco Florist @wildpollen Hair/Makeup @caitlynmeyermua Calligraphy @curvedandco Cake @jisoocakedesign Gowns @verawang @moniquelhuillierbride @berta @oscardelarenta Gown Boutique @carinesbridal Accessories @janicetan_co Rings @victorbarbonejewelry Tabletop Rentals @maisondecarine Chairs & Furniture @smthingvintage Table Linens @bbjlinen Bride Model @katie_andersen_ via @theartistagency Groom Model @markyeattes Ribbons @eastcoasttrimming Styling Surfaces @locustcollection Styling Props @curatedbehavior Venue @eventsatandersonhouse ⁣ #baltimorebridalmakeup #baltimorebridalhair #baltimoreweddings #baltimorebride #dmvbride #dmvwedding #dcbride #dcwedding #dcbridalmakeup #dcbridalhair #bridalhairandmakeup #bridalartist (at Larz Anderson House) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH8kS34Dbv3/?igshid=1qkck3jeasg06

My clients don’t come to me to look like anyone but themselves — an elevated version of themselves. ⁣ The inspiration for this shoot was Wabi-sabi, the Japanese view or thought of finding beauty in every aspect of imperfection in nature. It’s about the aesthetic of things in existence, that are “imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete”. ⁣ I don’t look at my clients as something that needs to be ‘fixed’, I don’t approach beauty as a tool to disguise or alter the person I’m working with, and I don’t ever want someone to feel like they need to look a certain way, or like anyone but themselves, in order to be beautiful. ⁣ I love to find my own wabi-sabi, and honor the ‘imperfections’ — celebrate wild baby hairs and freckles, embrace a naturally bushy brow, and enhance the things that make a person uniquely themselves. ⁣ Photography @eastmadeco Styling @eastmadeco & @curvedandco Florist @pomona.floral Hair/Makeup @caitlynmeyermua Calligraphy @curvedandco Handmade Paper @elivrosenkranz Gowns @carolhannahbridal Rings @victorbarbonejewelry Venue @faden.sonnen Models @nioby_ & @hihellocole ⁣ #baltimorebridalmakeup #baltimorebridalhair #baltimoreweddings #baltimorebride #dmvbride #dmvwedding #bridalhairandmakeup #bridalartist #bridalmakeupartist #bridalmakeupinspiration #bridalmakeupinspo #bridalmakeupideas https://www.instagram.com/p/CH57e3vjhWI/?igshid=1qflz76inon8z
