You’ve made a big investment in photography (and possibly videography as well) to help capture your big day. You want to make sure you absolutely look very your best. Although, I’m sure you do a very nice job on your everyday makeup, I strongly recommend looking into hiring a makeup artist.
Here’s why:
Even though you’re great at doing your own makeup, a MUA can & will do it so much better. I mean, after all, that is their job. Most makeup artists use the best products that the industry offers. If you hire an MUA that uses airbrush it’s ability to withstand against sweat and humidity and heart. It goes on super light and sheer so that you look your most natural. Regular makeup is hard to see through all the filters of hi-definition cameras and depending on how highly pigmented the makeup that you use, it can make or break your skin tones and your true tones. We especially recommend hiring a good MUA if you don’t normally do your own makeup. They know what will look good on you and can make it look natural and flawless.
Makeup artists use high-grade makeup – nothing runs, shines, or smudges, ensuring that you don’t have any makeup malfunctions during your big day. They also know what works well with the flash, the lighting at different times of the day, etc.

On your wedding day, you’re going to be moving around all day and you want your makeup to last. You’ll need to be wearing about 30% more makeup than normal. It may seem like a lot in real life, because you’re not used to it, but it won’t look like a lot on camera. Makeup artists know exactly how much to put on.


A MUA knows how to accentuate your features to make sure you look your best for portraits and close ups. They know that cameras alter lighting and colors and how to avoid common makeup issues with photography. Some everyday makeups can make you look oily or shiny on camera – MUAs make sure the makeup they use will photograph perfectly. Also, on your wedding day, you’ll be wearing a lot of white. You don’t want to look washed out in your photos and a MUA knows how to make sure that doesn’t happen.
There is nothing more scarier than having an allergic reaction to your makeup during your wedding day. We highly recommend getting a wedding day trial to assure that your color is exact. Our makeup artist for seniors or weddings uses oil free and alcohol free products to make sure your face is in the best of care.
And lastly, they know your schedule and can help keep you on track by making sure to have you ready in time.
