Hera Beauty… Sparkle, Curl, Wink!

Every now and then we are presented with a unique challenge where we have the opportunity to try something new and exciting… in this case, a Hindu wedding ceremony with both American and Indian influences.

For this ceremony, the color gold was of significance to the bride and her family, so Kat made sure that the color was highly showcased in the makeup pallete and reflected on her skin.  Placing and setting the bridal bindis was a new and very cool experience!

Leena wanted to have a softer, romantic, yet classic look for her hair, and thus, Whitney created a loosely waved bun that worked well with the veil and dress.  Rachel completed the bridal party with styles of their choosing.

Our very first shoot with Haute Shots Boudoir Photograpy was hot, hot, hot! Once again, we had the chance to do a vintage Vargas Girl look, one of our favorite styles. Miss Eve was so lovely and easy to work with, and she had the perfect look to pull off the style.

Thanks to Stacie and HauteShots.net for providing us the photos!

“The ladies that worked with me at Hera Beauty were skilled, friendly, and professional. They came to my hotel room (during the busy Valentine’s Day Weekend no less) both for a hair/make-up trial to determine the right style AND for the day of my wedding itself. My (then) fiance was so impressed with what Hera Beauty did during our trial run/rehearsal, he was speechless. The ladies listened to my preferences and concerns–adjusting the style between the rehearsal and the actual day of the wedding so that everything was literally “picture perfect” for the big day. Thank you Hera Beauty!” ~ D
