Hi!I saw that you worked with Brideface for your wedding and I also noticed that you a fellow pale bride :) I just booked Nancy to do the makeup for my wedding and I was wondering whether you did airbrush or not?  I am very pale and I am always nervous about finding a foundation that looks natural.  If you did airbrush, did you find it still looked natural? Was Nancy able to easy match your skin tone if you didn't do airbrush? Thanks!

    She didn't use airbrush, just regular makeup, and, honestly, I don't think I've ever had someone match my skintone that well.  I used a Manhattan MUA for my epic shoot (because we took them up here), and my photog mentioned that she had to do a lot of touches because the foundation didn't match like it should have.  With Nancy, no touch-ups at all.  But you can check for yourself in my bio - maybe I'm a horrible judge of naturalness in makeup... ;)Anyway, yeah, very natural.  Right now I'm wishing I would have told her a little LESS natural on the eyes, though.  Have you seen kelklump's makeup?  Rawr!  ;)

    Thanks so much! I'm planning from out of town as well (finishing up my last year of law school in DC), so I won't be able to do a trial with Nancy until we head back to Cincinnati for our engagement pictures. I definitely appreciate your advice!

    Thanks HR- I loved the airbrush. I figured I would chime in since I did have a bridesmaid that was pale. Not a single person had to be touched up thus far in our pictures. We cant wait to see the rest, but the airbrush is amazing. We had a huge mix of skintones and none of them even had a trial, just myself. You will not go wrong with the airbrush. Nancy is a professional and does a wonderful job with matching skintones. I am a very green skin (I have an odd tone to my skin) and it looks flawless in everything I have seen. Good luck and hopefully you will love it.

    Thanks kelklump! Your photos were absolutely gorgeous and I loved your makeup! It's great to hear that I will be fine whether I decided to do airbrush or non-airbrush.
