Why a Makeup Trial is a Must

Kylie and Dakota’s engagement session at Neffs Canyon in Salt Lake was SO romantic and fun! Kylie arrived from her makeup trial ready to slay these photos!!

How We Met

I love this story!! Kylie is the cousin of a former client-turned-friend, Ashley Ferran. Ashley is a hair and makeup artist I met through work and she is basically the bomb dot com!! If you have not yet seen the Ferran’s family session, you should make time to check it out after you soak up all of what today’s engagement session has to offer!

Once Kylie was engaged, Ashley basically told her she had no other choice but to hire me for her wedding! And guess what? She listened!!

Why You Should Invest in a Hair and Makeup Trial

Let’s talk about why it is a good idea for brides to get their hair and makeup trial done the day of their engagement session!

First off, if you are contemplating whether or not you should invest in a hair and makeup trial, the answer is YES.

Let me tell you why:

1.) Wedding day schedules are typically pretty tight. So, knowing your desired look and the length of time it takes to achieve this look can save a lot of time!

2.) A trial run is the perfect opportunity to get to know your artists’ personalities and skill levels. This will help you determine whether or not they are the right fit for you! I cannot stress enough just how important it is to hire people you not only feel connected to, but actually TRUST!

3.) What if you are allergic to some of the makeup your artist intends to use on you? Your wedding day is certainly not the day you want to discover you are allergic to latex eyelash glue, am I right?  A trial run gives you the opportunity to test out not only the final look, but also the products used.

Why You Should Schedule Your Trials on the Day of Your Engagement Session

By scheduling your hair and makeup trial on the same day of your engagement session, you are basically killing two birds with one stone.

1.) You will look wedding-ready in your engagement photos and feel like an elevated version of yourself.

2.) You will have a darn good reason to check your hair and makeup trial off the list of things to do!

BONUS: You can leverage how on fire you look for a hot date night with your honey!!

Enjoy Kylie and Dakota’s session!!

Brooke
