✔️ Rise & Shine! ☺️ Are you camera shy? Here are a few tips from our in-house photographers on the Wedding Beauty Team. (Part 2)✌🏼 1. For brides-to-be who aren’t quite sure how to position their legs — try pointing your toes, bending your knees, and positioning each leg differently for a few shots. Oddly enough, if it feels awkward and unnatural, that almost always means the pose looks great in photos. 2. Smile and have fun! Laugh it up and pretend for an hour that your photographer is funny. 😉 Note: We believe in assisting photographers with our clients on-site when they shoot whenever possible so if you are unsure about our attendance just ask us because we are happy to stick around and help direct you! ✨ ✔️ Photo credit: Photographer @jessicapurgason Studio Rental: @the_artistry_loft, Florals: @linnysfloraldesign #BrideHairstyle & #WeddingMakeup by: @cassandramcclure and @sabrina_weddingbeautyteam 💄 We kept it real simple with this beauty by only using the following products: @makeupforeverofficial brow gel, #makeupforeverhdfoundation & concealer followed by a light powder highlight illuminating dust, @lancomeofficial black mascara and new lipstick color from @limelightalcone that we were both absolutely in love with! 😍 ✨ ✨ ✨ #BraidedHairCrown #HairCrown #BridalMakeup #BlushingBride #SantaCruzMakeupArtist #ScottsValleyMakeupArtist #BayAreaMakeupArtist @hair_feature @feature_my_hair @hairstyles @inspirehairstyles @weddingwire @brides @grandslama @theknot @tuesdaystogethersc @risingtidesociety #weddingtips #bridehacks #engagementtips #phototips #weddingadvice #brideadvice #bayareamakeupartist (at Santa Cruz, California)

✔️ Are you camera shy? Here are a few tips from our in-house photographers on the Wedding Beauty Team. 📸 (Part 1) 💭 We get it! Sometimes an engagement session is the first time you’ll be meeting your wedding photographer, so it’s natural to be nervous about striking an awkward pose in front of an almost-stranger. 1. Chatting with your photographer should be the first step! (Shooting right away would be super awkward) 2. Pick a location that you will be comfortable in! (Don't pick a beach if you don't want to get sandy!) 3. Don't be afraid to ask for direction. Usually when a photographer is quite you are doing great!
