Another Wedding? Oh My Goodness!

That's right, of course we do wedding makeup and up-dos!  Wedding season must be in full swing, as we just got back in town earlier this week from Houston where my good friends Cindy and Sean just got married!  Cindy had asked if I would do her makeup for the ceremony and I brought along my stylist colleague, Fae Valentine, to help out with hair. 

It was an beautiful ceremony and an amazing reception. We tried to snap some pictures, but the hair picture came out a little blurry (since it was kind of a hectic time).  If I can get my hands on some of the wedding photographer pics, I'll post those up too!

Back to Beauty Basics

While my passions revolve around doing special effect makeup, it is kind of nice to go back to my roots and do some beauty makeup every once in a while.  My friend, Jing-Jing, got married a few weeks ago, and she had asked if I could do makeup for her and her bridesmaids. I brought my hair and makeup colleague, Fae, along and everything turned out fantastic; a great time was had by all.  Jing-Jing was kind enough to send us this thank you note in the mail just recently.

The note reads:

Dear Sherrl,
Words cannot express how thankful I am to you throughout the whole wedding process! Thank you so much for providing one of the best makeup artist/hair stylist. I loved Fae! Thank you for dealing with all the drama and thank you for helping me out at my wedding! I really appreciate you being there, helping out with my mom, Alina, and I heard later your sewing kit came in handy too. ☺  Thank you for staying for my outfit and hair changes. You are a wonderful friend and we definitely need to hang out when I'm back in Austin next.
Love,
Jing-Jing and Daniel

I really appreciate the kind words.  It was a beautiful event and a fun job, and I can honestly say that it was my pleasure.  Now to get back to the scary stuff...
