I've been a family friend of the Baker's for years. There's a team of them to say the least so when I wasnt going to say no when my friend Stacey asked me to be the make up artist for her sister Kelly's wedding. Of course I was thrilled. "she wont have anyone else and will change the date if you are not available'' It was firm, but I was flattered. That's Stacey for you. Straight to the point.
We had a lovely morning getting the soon to be Mrs McClardy ready for her trip down the aisle. and started on the fizz around lunchtime. Not only had I Kelly's make up to do but I agreed to pin up her hair too. Normally I don't do hair on the 'big day' but again big sister Stacey insisted.
Kelly basically gave complete freedom the go-ahead to create a look for her " do what you think will work with my dress Craig " she said. So I did. A gorgeous glam and woven top knot added some old style Hollywood glam and was complemented buy a rich gold and chocolate brown smouldering eye looked great against the cool blue tones of her diamante earrings. Perfect for a winter wedding.
Photographing the event was Nicky Cooney, another family friend who specialises in portraits. This was her first wedding and I have to say, what an amazing job. Here are a couple of pics from the day. I cant wait to see the rest. Don't keep me waiting too long now Nicky.
