A classic and romantic Calamigos Ranch wedding for this adorable couple in the entertainment industry. Our bride chose a chic and timeless loose updo with a natural makeup look that enhanced her beautiful features!

The vibes were immaculate… she turned that backyard into a bohemian dream wedding ceremony! And yes, pampas grass EVERYWHERE, just the way we like it. ;)

For her hair, we had to keep with her boho vision, so we styled a fishtail braided half up, half down style. For makeup, we chose warm tones and neutrals for the eyes and kept the skin fresh and glowy with airbrush foundation.

For makeup, our bride chose to go with a romantic champagne, gold, bronze eye with natural airbrush foundation. Her hairstyle was just effortless - a brushed out beautiful wave. A balance somewhere in between boho and old Hollywood glam!

Their outdoor wedding venue, Saddlerock Ranch, even had a special guest during photos… the famous giraffe, Stanley! ;)

Bride Sara walks down the aisle barefoot and in the dreamiest boho Grace Loves Lace gown. You can just feel through her photos the intimacy and happiness everyone shares surrounded by the closest of friends and family. Seeing this beautiful day unfold could persuade anyone into a micro wedding!

Here’s what our bride, Ally, said after working with us (exact words from Google review): “Emily did all of the hair for me, my mom, and my bridesmaids for my wedding. We were so pleased with how our hair turned out! Emily was so sweet and easy to work with, and very quick to match anything we wanted. I would highly recommend!”

This couple chose to celebrate their marriage with a micro wedding ceremony - 5 in-person guests, and a hundred more tuning in from around the world on zoom. Even with just their closest, local LA friends, not one detail went unnoticed. The wedding day was planned and executed flawlessly and safely!

What are COVID weddings/COVID elopements looking like these days? Well, actually pretty romantic and magical, I’d say!!! Santa Barbara has the most beautiful City Hall, with gorgeous grounds for photos! An absolutely beautiful spot for elopements, especially in the midst of COVID and smaller micro-weddings!

Working with this bride Claire was such a dream. She planned her destination wedding in LA from across the country, and even got hair and makeup ready in her parent’s Hancock Park home that she grew up in. Her venue, The Carondelet House is an incredible vintage, upscale, urban brick building and built in the 1920’s.

Her bridal hair and makeup look was one that perfectly pairs with a dreamy, beachy Laguna Beach setting! For makeup, we chose to do a dramatic bronze eyeshadow and lots of individual lashes so the eyes completely pop! I curled Amy’s hair in my signature beachy, brushed out style, then created a side updo with intricate pinning and twists! Amy had a gorgeous hair piece that we included, along with her veil.

“…Emily is incredibly professional and able to roll with last minute changes. She has a great, easy going personality and is so fun to be around. On a day that can get hectic and stressful, it was nice to have someone calm and fabulous! I wish I could use her for every event I attend!” — Bride Lauren

The wardrobe for this wedding was particularly my FAVE. The mother of the bride’s wedding dress was transformed into the prettiest getting ready robe/gown I’ve ever seen! So much sentiment. For the ceremony, K wore a Grace Loves Lace gown, then changed to a jumpsuit for the reception, made by Amanda James Design. K’s hair was styled in a romantic twisted updo, with makeup very minimal and classic - something that will always be timeless!

This dreamy, intimate elopement on the coast of Big Sur is what boho wedding DREAMS are made of!!! When this bride from Texas emailed me about her destination elopement, I could not have been more excited to travel back for work! Their photos + video so beautifully capture that “adventure couple” vibe.

C + S’s wedding morning started out with hair and makeup at the Four Seasons in Westlake Village! Myself and the team created natural and effortless hair and makeup looks perfect for the outdoor ceremony at Moorpark Country Club. This bride was so easy to work with and her natural beauty shined through. We chose a loose, romantic updo for her, and half up/half down with beach waves for the bridesmaids!

THIS wedding’s design and bride’s vision just made my heart sing. We brought her boho hair and makeup vision to life, and the joy felt during the day radiates through her wedding day images!

I am always going to be obsessed with a messy, beach wave hairstyle!! We curled her hair with a wand, sprayed in all the magic products, and brushed it through for a soft, effortless look and that’s perfectly boho for Palm Springs, and natural and makes Katie feel like herself.

As makeup artists, we all have our own unique taste, experience, technique, eye for things. Two of us could use the exact same concealer and one of us hate it. You know why? Because we have different processes when it comes to applying, using a brush vs. a sponge, the skin prep beforehand, the amount of powder - a number of factors that all make up the end result. Two artists could receive the same inspiration photo, and achieve the same end result, but by completely different means.

Earlier this year, I provided hair and makeup for a styled shoot in the desert of Joshua Tree, California. It was the most fun and beautiful day because I was surrounded by such incredible, professional, and skilled wedding vendors! We are v happy that this styled shoot got some love from Wedding Chicks, and was published to their wedding blog.
