Marta - Sonia Roselli and Becky Hill

Hi ladies,
Some of you may have known our friend Marta, and those how do I am sure are aware that she passed only two short months ago.  Marta's family has gone into substantial debt due to the costs of her hospitalization and funeral.  I know that many of you here have expressed an interest in helping out.

Marta had a habit of touching people with her enormous heart.  Two of those people, Sonia Roselli and Becky Hill, (Marta's makeup artist and wedding photographer) have been speaking with Marta's family and have been brainstorming on ways to help them with their financial situation.  And they have come up with such a "beautiful" idea that I know Marta would have loved.  Marta was a computer and fashion junkie (not to mention a true knottie at heart). 

Sonia and Becky will hold what they call a social networking party.  It will include makeup from Sonia Roselli Estetique and will include a photoshoot from Becky Hill for facebook profiles.  I think it is a very cute idea, and very generous of both Sonia and Becky.  ALL PROCEEDS will go to Marta's family. 

The cost is a donation of $100.  This costs of course includes your makeup (on a saturday) and a photoshoot for your proflie pic by Becky Hill.  The date is 2-6-10 from 10 am to 4 pm. at Sonia shop Esthetique.  Email at Susan@soniaroselli.com to book your apt.

This also may be a great opportunity for those of you interested in Sonia or Becky's services for your wedding to check them out.  For those of you who have already had your weddings, it just seems like a great way to honor our friend Marta, by looking beautiful for a day.

Thank you

Here are the beautiful pictures of Marta's wedding day.  The way I will always remember Marta, absolutely glowing.

    Social Networking Party! Sat. Feb 6, 2010 10-4 @ Esthétique

    Some of you have seen my post below about my former bride, Marta. It is with heavy heart that I report that Marta did not make it and passed away. Sadly, she was only married for 5 months and left a burden of debt for her hospital bills, etc.

    So to help the family out, my good friend and photographer extrodinare, (who was also Marta's photographer for her wedding day and took these beautiful photos) will be hosting a "Social Networking Party" to help the family out with some of their expenses.

    What is a Social Networking Party? For a minimum donation of $100 have your makeup done by one of talented girls at Esthetique then have 10 minutes with professional photographer Becky Hill to take your photo to use on your Twitter, Facebook or Myspace page. 100% of the proceeds will go to the family of Marta Maslowska.

    To have me personally do your makeup it is a minimum donation of $250.

    To sign up please email Susan so that she may reserve your spot.

    We look forward to a very worthwhile event! And thank you in advance to all of you who sign up.

    xoxo,

    Sonia
