Bridal Makeup | Union Hill Inn Wedding | Columbia, Ca

Sonora, California

One of my favorite parts of my job is each bride's unique 'How we met and Fell in Love' story. I wouldn't be in the business of Bridal Makeup artistry if I weren't a hopeless romantic, I don't think.  I love hearing the details of how they met, how they stayed together, and most of all, I really love the part when the bride gets that look on her face she gets when she tells me about the day she said 'Yes'.

Lisa's story of how she fell in love with Adam was no exception. They have known each other since childhood...like really little. Like 7 or 8 years old, if I remember correctly. How rare and special is that??


The most memorable part of my morning with Lisa was as I was packing my kit to start my drive home to Sacramento after completing the finishing touches of her makeup, I looked over and saw her reading a letter quietly to herself. It appeared to be a looong beautifully hand written letter from her husband to be.  It was penned on a huge piece of paper, in beautiful, careful script, and clearly the words, which were meant for her alone, were exactly the kinds of words any bride would want to hear from the man she is about to marry. For Lisa was wiping away the kinds of tears of joy that make me misty in remembering them while writing this.

Now, of course, the makeup artist in me made me be the first one to run over with a tissue, but being a pro, I knew my makeup wasn't going anywhere!

Cheers, Lisa and Adam!
