How to Love Your Wedding Photos » Deanna McCollum Photography - [...] 1. Have your hair and makeup done professionally. I thought I knew what I was doing. Where’s the buzzer?…I was SO wrong.

Meeting with the stylist before your wedding day allows you to feel comfortable with the look you want to create and remember. Every bride wants to feel beautiful on her wedding day, and hiring a professional makeup artist and hair stylist will give you that confidence.

Tina - Thanks Deanna, you’re too sweet! I’d love to take you up on that offer someday or if you ever need a helper I’d be head over heels happy to trade my time (and go getting skills) for the chance to learn a little.
Deanna - WOW! Thanks, Tina! You are very kind. And what a small world! Melanie is amazing; I love her to bits. All the best on your photography journey. If there is anything I can do to help out, I’d love to connect.
Tina - I wondered upon your website a few days ago and instantly fell in LOVE with your work. I’ve always loved photography and have just started the long road of learning all I can. Someday I hope to be as good as you are! I was reading your blog and noticed this post about Melanie. She’s AMAZING and the picture you have of her applying makeup to the lady is blue is at my wedding – that’s Melanie and my sister
A weird coincidence from a new fan!
