Brides and the dogs who love them, Volume II
I like to say that I "live vicariously through the dogs of others." I have three rescue cats, and a canine companion just isn't in the cards, at least not in the near future. So, behold, Volume II of brides, grooms and their beloved pups.
Props to the wonderful photographers represented here as well...

Beautiful Bride: Ashton at Skytop Lodge by Sarah DiCicco
When it comes to weddings, I adore the classic - dress, venue, styling, and everything that is timeless. Going to Skytop Lodge in the Poconos to help Ashton get ready to wed her Alex was like stepping into forever, as you can see by some of my favorite photos by the illustrious Sarah DiCicco.

Best of Philly 2015
What a rewarding summer it has been - Philadelphia Magazine named my make-up lesson the Best Make-up Service in the Best of Philly 2015 issue.
Specifically, for my make-up lesson, wherein I extract the useless, used, and unwanted from your make-up stash, keeping the good products - if there are any - and teaching you how to use them to look fresh and polished every day.
This town has been good to me - thank you, Philadelphia!
Best of the Main Line 2015
Thanks very much to the editors of Main Line Today Magazine for thinking that I do "the best" make-up for brides.... the last time I was honored this way by the publication was in 2011, and I truly appreciate the nod....

The Athlete's Foot Campaign by Jenna Stamm
Recently worked with photographer Jenna Stamm for The Athlete's Foot Fall 2015 catalogue. Here are some shots I thought were particularly fun .... and yes, boys need hair and make-up too.
I would totally wear the last outfit - it would make people think that I work out....
As seen in Philly Magazine: eye make-up for a red dress
In recognition of the Go Red for Women campaign, the editors at Philadephia Magazine asked me about what sort of make-up would look best with a red dress.
Neutral shades for eyes are best when you're wearing red, so had to give a shout out to Urban Decay and their brilliant Naked Basics palette ($29).

Downton Abbey Inspired Bride
Just before the holidays I did a shoot with Marie Labbancz, Beautiful Blooms, Architeqt Salon and The Wedding Factor, featuring the latter's beautiful Berta gowns. The regal Madison courtesy of Reinhard Agency.
Lots of great images to share, but in celebration of the new season of Downton Abbey (yes, I'm addicted), I wanted to share these first because they so remind me of the beloved series. Can't you just see Mary (or even poor Edith) in this?
Wishing you success and happy surprises in 2015 ....
