Why you should hire a professional Makeup Artist on your Wedding Day.

Your Wedding Day is the most-photographed day of your life. You will be in hundreds, if not thousands of photos. It's essential that your makeup lasts the whole day. Wedding makeup application is a specialized art. An experienced wedding makeup artist knows how your makeup will look in a photograph. It's an extra cost, and well worth it.

Kaitlyn and Ryan tied the knot at the gorgeous Trump National Golf Club in Charlotte, NC. The cathedral ceilings, chandeliers, floor-to-ceiling windows and incredible lake views made for a grand Wedding Ceremony and Reception. The surrounding grounds were a stunning backdrop for breathtaking portraits and special moments.   The best part of a Wedding is documenting how beautiful everything looks. The decor, flowers and most importantly, the Bride. She gets the royal treatment with on-site hair and makeup in the Bridal Suite. Getting ready with her bridesmaids is probably the only downtime she'll have before the festivities begin. We love how the bridesmaids hung their dresses behind Kaitlyn's exquisite gown.

One of the best parts of the day for the Groom, besides marrying his true love, is spending t
