many debates in wedding planning. Big wedding vs. a small wedding, Cake vs. cupcakes, Band vs. a DJ…. Real lashes vs. Fake lashes! If you’re thinking that the last debate mentioned is no big deal compared to the others, you’re correct. However, fake lashes do make a big difference in images. If you’re like me and don’t have extraordinary LONG, lush lashes naturally, then fake lashes may be a great option for you! It really does change the way you look and how much your eyes will POP in your portraits! Now, I’m not one to advocate that brides should look totally MADE UP and not themselves on their wedding day. Some people hear
“FAKE LASHES” and immediately freak out because that seems like over-kill! Well, it’s really not. They can be done VERY naturally and it’s actually a great decision if you have thin or short lashes. I wasn’t blessed with long curled lashes but somehow my husband was! JEALOUS. So I opted for falsies and it was a great decision!! Once they are on, you don’t even know they are there! So if you’re one of my 2012 brides, ask your makeup artist about it or even grab a package and do a trial run for your engagement session! Just a thought! So take a look at some of my brides and their lovely lashes! I bet you never even some of them had on falsies!!! Happy Wedding Wednesday! I have to get back to planning a workshop and editing like no one’s business!!! (And get a haircut, FINALLY!!!!)
See! I wore them too!!
Thanks for reading!
