Christina Foppiano's engagement photos

Here is a sneak peak of Christina, one of my upcoming September brides. Back in April Christina came in for her trial, which took place on the same day as her engagement photos. She really wanted to see how her makeup would photograph on the day of her wedding, and by the looks of her photos she will be a stunning bride.

It was sweet that she brought her fiance with her, and when the trial was over he complimented her on how beautiful she looked.

Please enjoy her professional photos below compliments of Angela and Evan Photography, and keep an eye out for Christina's wedding photos near the end of September.

Urban Light Studio is a fantastic gallery that converts in to a wedding venue, which is located in the heart of the Greenwood neighborhood. In the past year we have had five brides book with ULS, and they have all had great things to say about the staff, venue, and accommodations.

"Urban Light Studios is a 4000 sf eclectic architectural event space for up to 250 guests. An “artistic speakeasy," as it has been aptly described, a long hallway guides visitors off the street into a new world."

Stephanie C: Married January 3, 2011

Stephanie was my first bride of 2011. On the day of her wedding I traveled out to her hotel in Bellevue where I provided on location hair for her and a few other ladies in her bridal party.

Stephanie chose to go with a romantic half up half down style that complimented her overall look and left her feeling beautiful.

Please enjoy!

Grace U: Married January 8, 2011

On January 8, 2011 I traveled on location to work with Grace, one of my most sweet and lovely brides to date. For her wedding day hair style we chose something loose and low on the neck. Grace had a strong liking for braids, so I managed to incorporate a few in to the hair style.

For her makeup, I did a light airbrush foundation and stuck with pale shades of pink, cream, and champagne. I finished her look off with some gorgeous false lashes, and a hint of raspberry on her lips.

Congrats to Grace and Jordan!

Kari P: Married April 23, 2011

For Kari's wedding I traveled out on location to the Dragonfly Retreat. The Venue is absolutely gorgeous and the weather couldn't have been any more perfect for an April wedding. I styled Kari's hair in a softly curled half up half down look. For her makeup she went for a heavier eye, flawless airbrush foundation, and nude lip. Kari and all the girls in her bridal party were so sweet to work with. I'm so glad I got to be a part of her special day.
