Make-up & Hair by Heather B using Chanel S 2014 and Bumble & Bumble. Photography: Catherine Gratwicke. Styling: Laura Burkitt.

A Big Day Look Book that was inspired by gilded Victoriana and the rich purples, pinks and velvety opulence of the era. This shoot was pretty spectacular to say the least. Brides had invited Tony Marklew and Javier Salvador from 'Only By Design' to recreate a decadent visual feast fit for a bride, and that they did! The colours, flowers, decor, fabrics, dresses and headwear really inspired my make-up & hair looks here. I used Chanel S 2014 to create the rosy glow and rich stained lip in the pic above left and a more solid rouged lip in the image above right. Hair was prepped using Bumble & Bumble and then pinned up into the first style above and then the second style below. To change hair like this it's all about the prep work!

I also had 4 young children to make-up, Noah, Ophelia, Ruby and Raya seen below. It was just a matter of hair styling and a bit of rouge for these little beauties, so cute!
