A little about yourself and what you have to offer this wedding community?
My expertise is multi-faceted and includes special events (including weddings - American, South Asian and Arabic bridal parties are specialties), photo shoots (headshots, fashion, beauty and editorial, etc.) film and music video, theater productions, light special FX, body painting and makeup lessons/workshops.
My clients love that I really listen and with that knowledge, they trust my expertise and advice so we can work together creating what they need/want.
Brides tell me that they love that I focus on making them beautiful by utilizing their best features and not making them look overly made up even if we create a smoky eye.
