Beautiful Brides

One of the things I love most about my job is making my clients incredibly happy on one of the most important days of their lives. My recent bride Amanda looked so beautiful as a bride, she took my breathe away. Knowing that I helped her look and feel her best on her wedding is such fulfilling feeling.

Here are some pics from Amanda's wedding. Makeup for the bride and bridesmaids was done by me and hair was done by the fabulous Nadia Albano.

New Work - Fashion Editorial

I did a photo shoot a few weeks ago with photographer Eydis Einarsdottir, someone I've been wanting to work with for a while so I was very excited when I got the chance to. The shoot was shot at Sugar Studios, one of the top studios in Vancouver. It was a very fun, creative collaboration and I got to work with stylist Krista Sung, who did a fabulous job with the styling. Makeup and hair were both kept a bit more simple for this shoot to offset the elaborate wardrobe and accessories.

New Work

These are images from a recent photo shoot I did with photographer Kelly Jill and model Veronica, makeup & hair by me. The concept with lighting and wardrobe was very soft and pretty so I kind of wanted to offset that with more dramatic makeup. To see more images, check out my website at www.emanmakeup.com

Beautiful Brides

I love all the brides I get to work with and this bride was no exception. I met Anya last year and we hit it off right away. She has great style which you can see in her choice of wedding dress, accessories and hair style. Her wedding was simple and elegant. And she was the most relaxed bride I have ever seen on her wedding day. It was an absolute pleasure doing her makeup for her special day.

Enjoy!
