This year’s wedding season has hit fast and hard!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Yay!</div><div style="text-align: center;">I have so many beautiful weddings to post and am so busy with trial run throughs and establishing a second team of Artists for Beau Ideal Beauty that I have gotten really behind in my posts!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Speaking of Beau Ideal expanding, I would love to announce that I have now added some fantastic new Artists to Beau Ideal!</div><div style="text-align: center;">My new number one, right hand Hairstylist and Makeup Artist, Amber joined me at the very beginning of the year and we did our first wedding in January together.</div><div style="text-align: center;">By our 3rd wedding together, when she suggested we add Groom’s grooming to our business, I knew I had a great associate here. Amber just graduated from the acclaimed Paul Mitchell Cosmetology school. You may have seen her on some of my past posts, she is the beautiful young woman with the fantastic red hair.</div><div style="text-align: center;">By now we have done 14 weddings together and several trial run throughs.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Amber has a tremendous talent and a fantastic outgoing and fun personality. We have the best time with our Brides and Bridesmaids as we spend the mornings getting everyone beautified!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Also, while I have over 20 years experience doing makeup and hair in Film,TV, Photo Shoots, and Weddings, Amber is a self proclaimed “Hair Dork”. Meaning that she loves knowing the science behind why hair reacts the way it does to chemicals and heat etc. When I hear her explain why, in technical terms, spraying the hair with a wet setting spray/heat protectant really locks in the curl,I find my self saying “Really? Wow! I didn’t know that, I just knew it worked.”</div><div style="text-align: center;">Amber works primarily with me as a Hairstylist, but is also actively learning my makeup techniques for which Beau Ideal has become known for; natural, soft, and beautifully blended with the airbrush.</div><div style="text-align: center;">When Beau Ideal has 2 weddings in a day, Amber goes out with the B (Brilliant) team and then Caitlin works with me as the Hairstylist on my team, the A(Awesome) team.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Caitlin also just graduated from Paul Mitchell and was introduced to me by Amber. Caitlin already has an airbrush and has regularly worked with it, so she is a special addition to Beau Ideal. It is great to know that I have fantastic Artists who can do both hair and also makeup when needed.She also has a wonderful fun personality, something very welcome during the sometimes pressure filled wedding day.</div><div style="text-align: center;">And finally, but definitely not least, is Kristin, Beau Ideal’s new Makeup Artist.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Kristin graduated from the Academy of Makeup and Fashion.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I met Kristin when Amber gave her my name to do her makeup for her upcoming wedding. I feel Kristin is special in that she has an intuitive ability to know exactly what a client wants and likes in makeup.One thing led to another and now we have spent quite a bit of time together exchanging makeup tips and tricks and doing makeups and establishing a relationship with all the Pro stores in Hollywood. Kristin and I really had a wonderful whirlwind day driving around LA hitting, Frends, Naimie’s, Nigel’s, Dinair Airbrush Academy, and the MAC Pro store.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Now Beau Ideal’s Brilliant team has a kit with an airbrush and our signature foundation and the makeup that gives Beau Ideal it’s distinctive look.</div><div style="text-align: center;">With the addition of Men’s Grooming and both the Awesome team (me and Caitlin) and the Brilliant team (Amber and Kristin), Beau Ideal is headed for a fantastic summer of beautiful Brides and Bridal parties and well groomed Groomsmen!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4vIg4aZWr4FybL9F0byP_rWrbso2gJzuFbmop1lu3Bcw1eTLVEEi4osKL_drXeUjPVurOy8VBECoquBCaIOGyXVtpEaRKxlgmIH7-N_O9LiU5i746DBMgcosdF34ZFO0kpt9gZ3f8hViO/s1600/kisses-1435.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="269" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4vIg4aZWr4FybL9F0byP_rWrbso2gJzuFbmop1lu3Bcw1eTLVEEi4osKL_drXeUjPVurOy8VBECoquBCaIOGyXVtpEaRKxlgmIH7-N_O9LiU5i746DBMgcosdF34ZFO0kpt9gZ3f8hViO/s320/kisses-1435.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

(This is the same beautiful model I worked with at the Mountaingate Bridal Fair and for the P.A.R.T.I. (Positive Alternative Recreational Team-Building Impacting) program fashion show. However, I misspelled her name and called her Chantal. Sorry Chantelle!)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The theme was a retro 1940's pinup feel with cars and a gritty garage as the background. Chantelle and her sister, Starr, equally beautiful, modeled some fun costumes that stylist Haven Howell pulled for us. Haven couldn't be present at the shoot because she had to work so we were left to figure it out ourselves. I'm sure Haven would have done magic with the clothes, but we did OK I think.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

The photographer, TaShanique, tashanique@alasiphotography.com, Marquisa, and the beautiful Chelley and I worked as a great team as we did make-up and hair on a park bench and ran around the park. Sometimes on photo shoots, especially with location photo shoots, it becomes this kind of on-the-run type situation.<br />
Chelley changed clothes in her car!<br />

Hi,<br />
Last week I had a fantastically busy week doing make-up and hair at two fashion shows.<br />

</tbody></table>The first was Tuesday,March 1st for the gorgeous Mountaingate Country Club in Los Angeles. Along with Rose Petals Bridal and Formal Dresses Store from Toluca Lake, I helped 4 lovely ladies get ready for a Bridal Fashion Show at the Mountaingate Bridal Expo. I did make-up and hair and Rose Petals dressed them in Bridal gowns. I also had a booth at the Bridal Expo and so unfortunately did not get any pictures of my models after they were dressed. We started make-up and hair at 2:30 PM and the Bridal Expo started at 6. I was just finishing up my last model as the Brides came in.<br />

It helps young people from 8 to 25 to learn leadership,volunteer and community service opportunities through fashion, modeling, performing, organizing and producing events. Chantal was planning their first fashion show, slated for the following Saturday. I love doing make-up and hair, and I love young people, so I asked if she needed help.

Women of Weddings is an association of female wedding vendors in the L.A. area. Our friend and colleague Kimberlee Miller, a fantastic photographer, had the idea of putting together this group a few years back. We are the best in the wedding business and always have a fantastic time together. We discuss industry topics and ideas and new trends.<br />
<br />
<br />
We are in the process of updating our website and had a specialist come and discuss possibilities and directions we could go as a group.<br />
<br />
We had a great time decorating Valentine cookies as well!<br />

WOW meets at either the venues we do weddings and events at or the member's place of business or homes. When we meet at the member's place, that member can showcase her business.<br />
In this case, it was great to know how an amazing cake person and artist works!<br />

</tbody></table>Wednesday and Thursday I got to work with an incredible team at the Stylewest photo shoot for one of the lines they represent, Dav Rain Boots. Along with Kerri Sengstaken, owner of Stylewest, producer of the shoot and also my neighbor and good friend, the amazing Casey Galbraith was the photographer and Arina Gasanova was the fantastic clothes stylist. I,of course did make-up and hair for the shoot.<br />

The last two days I worked with the beautiful and gracious singer Maria Del Rey, on the launch of her 2011 Childgood tour.<br />
Maria Del Rey's The Bridge: El Puente<br />
It was an unforgettable bilingual,multicultural celebration of Latin American music, art, dance & stories live onstage and on the big screen!<br />
Starring Latin Grammy® Award nominee Maria Del Rey and joined by<br />
Santa Barbara area children.<br />
Her mission in life is to bring cultural celebration and social-emotional skills development to millions of children.<br />
We were also filming footage for her possible upcoming television special.<br />
<br />
I learned two important things from this wonderful experience.<br />
#1; Never use an airbrush for foundation or hairspray around a singer, it affects their voice and performance. Luckily, Maria informed me of that before I sprayed anything in her direction.<br />
; )<br />
<br />
#2; It's good to have a flashlight when you're doing quick changes backstage.<br />
<br />
I did take pictures, but I must apologize for the quality, I could not use flash during the performance and my photos on my camera were all very blurry. My iPhone did better, but they are still not the best and quite dark.<br />
<br />

Not only is she a fantastic photographer and incredibly creative person, but she is the best mom and the most fun friend to hang out with. Her family was such a pleasure to be around as I took up all her time: the sweetest and prettiest girls, fantastic husband, and engaging kitties. <br />
They are an all around, a great family. </div><div class="MsoNormal">She helped me design my website, and understand more about how “cyberspace” works and set me up with my new BLOG!</div><div class="MsoNormal">OK!</div><div class="MsoNormal">So here we go!</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">This is Brooke and Greg who got married at Walnut Grove in Moorpark, Ca. last summer.</div><div class="MsoNormal">I really loved how she and I figured out this gorgeous hair and make-up for her wedding.</div><div class="MsoNormal">We focused on lashes and kept most of the rest of her make-up very natural, some shimmery eyeshadow, glowy blush and lipgloss. And of course, my amazing airbrush foundation, which gives the most natural, sheer, lit from within glow. As for her hair, we curled it all over and then I wove it and pinned it and pulled some of it down into this lovely side ponytail. With the rose, it was a perfect look for an outdoor garden wedding!</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal">Of course I must warn you, all my blog photos and posts won’t be as amazing as this first one because an amazing photographer helped me do this first post, with her gorgeous photos. Thanks Kimberlee!</div><div class="MsoNormal">You might want to get used to very ordinary, boring, and amateur photos that I post from now on.</div><div class="MsoNormal">: /</div><div class="MsoNormal">I’m great with hair in my hands, and faces to enhance, but photos, not so good.</div><div class="MsoNormal">But I’m willing to try.</div><div class="MsoNormal">OK so let go for it!</div><div class="MsoNormal">But I just think my photographer friends do it so much better!</div><div class="MsoNormal">I’m sort of embarrassed.</div><div class="MsoNormal">But enjoy Kimberlee’s work for now!</div><div class="MsoNormal">; )</div>Kathleen Haganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05576815238315199527noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6321207845690830083.post-74876698805111281802011-01-27T15:38:00.000-08:002011-01-27T15:38:47.149-08:00Brooke and Greg, Walnut Grove<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZD75MfGPKJ3hlIVbDkLfZq3LgAgqmDn2hK2ec7OwfrQ7eH9ORRSkWoIzt8mMwWcR7Jhaoldjs4Y578vBJUQDDpbdaUB9tCpgmd19iIiA87qwArDJDbh4ModCqYIkSp31YSFd4UkbtFl5Y/s1600/IMG_0085.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZD75MfGPKJ3hlIVbDkLfZq3LgAgqmDn2hK2ec7OwfrQ7eH9ORRSkWoIzt8mMwWcR7Jhaoldjs4Y578vBJUQDDpbdaUB9tCpgmd19iIiA87qwArDJDbh4ModCqYIkSp31YSFd4UkbtFl5Y/s320/IMG_0085.JPG" width="213" /></a></div><br />
