Wedding month madness

So may is finally here tomorrow and so is my first wedding of the month.
1 Bride
3 bridesmaids
3 Guests
All to be ready by 12 noon :D

I carried out a second trial yesterday a few months after the first one due to the bride wanting to try out hair extensions which really added that finishing touch to her style and bulked out her hair. She has an amazing head piece which can be seen in the picture below.
Tomorrow we are going for a Grecian theme and I'm really looking forward to seeing the girls in there stunning dresses.

The venue is 'The Green Bank Hotel,' Falmouth and it is stunning. With a bridal suite over looking the harbour where you can step out of a double doored bay window on to a beautiful balcony to enjoy the views and relax in the sitting area or recline on the four poster bed. I have to say it is one of the nicer hotels and more up to date that Falmouth has to offer. They also have a brilliant wedding planner called Zara who will take care of your wedding needs in regards to the hotel.

The first trial I carried out this week is for a wedding mid may that will take place in St mawes. I must admit I did get a bit excited about going on the ferry (I know I'm sad) and enjoyed the lovely drive with the sun beaming.
So roll on tomorrow and then my second wedding on Thursday at Mawgan Porth which is a Dream Team Wedding, will be great to work with my favourite ladies Helen Morcom of Helen Morcom Photography and Julie Wieczorek of Angel Face Mineral make up.

Corinsh Brides summer front cover shoot

    Well Monday morning brought around the photo shoot for the Cornish brides magazine front cover and what a wonderful day it was for it.


My self, Julie (make up) and Samantha (model) arrived at 11.30 and entered the studio 'The Lightbox', (Truro). We began to prepare Sam's hair and make up while the dresses were hung up, flowers and accessories sorted through and balloons put in place.
We even had a little bridesmaid this time which really nice and she was so excited to be getting dressed up like a princess
Julie used her 100% mineral make up for Sam's look and as the day went on she built on the make up to give different looks for different pictures.

First dress and I have fallen in love with it :D

First make up look, light and fresh, before being built on for a heavier look.

I pinned back bits of hair changed hair pieces and for the last shot let the hair down and popped a Vail in. We got some lovely photos at Malpas by the water and up in the wooded area.

Second dress with daisy detailing.

The official pictures and magazine will be available from the 2nd of June

Angel Face Mineral Make Up

I have the pleasure of working with the wonderful Julie Wieczorek who has set up a company with her business partner Guy selling their own brand 100% mineral make up and some skin care products.

Julie has a true passion for make up and is full of creative flare, the dedication and effort she puts into doing somebodies make up for a photo shoot or a wedding is truly amazing. She cares about every little detail and is a true perfectionist.


A truly fantastic range of mineral make up which is 100% natural,and therefore free from Bismuth Oxy chloride, talc’s, fillers, parabens and artificial colourants. Its natural healing properties make it beneficial to problem skin and it gives a beautiful, youthful and radiant coverage, it sits on the skin and does not sink into it so does not clog your pores and allows your skin to breathe

They also have an amazing range of natural skin care products to compliment their Mineral Make-up perfectly. Nasty chemical ingredients have been replaced with a cocktail of scrumptious natural oils, butters and plant extracts.

Not only can you get a lovely natural flawless finish but you can vamp it up with dark alluring colours due to a large choice of different eye shadows

Julie can create such a number of different looks so why not give her a call today  to book a consultation/make up lesson or for your wedding day.
Or buy some of her products online and quote Jodie at the check out.

Cornish Brides Magazine (Photoshoot)

So this month was the release of the new A4 sized Cornish Brides Magazine.
A few months ago myself, (JDHairstylist) Laura Bell (Make Up), Amanda K bridal wear, Life Photographic (Photographers) , Samantha Orpe (Miss Cornwall 2010) and Cornish Brides Magazine all gathered at the Green Lawns Hotel Falmouth for a photo shoot.

The sun was shining but the wind was blowing, we headed inside to get Samantha ready. We were allocated a downstairs bedroom in which to do the hair and make up and for Samantha to get changed into her different dresses.

We had 3 different Dresses and two different head pieces so i started by curling Sam's hair and leaving it down and very casual. I felt by doing this i could achieve two very different looks as my second look was to put all of sames hair up in a big bunch of curls slightly of set to one side.

Samantha was a beautiful and very professional model and make it all look completely effortless
Sam even ventured out into the very windy weather for a few out door photos with the Cornish brides umbrella. The day seemed to fly passed and before I knew it we were packing up and going home.
Although today I met up with Sam again to style her hair for the Cornish brides lostwithiel wedding fayre, where Sam wore several dresses and walked around the fayre showing off her hair make up.
Please visit my website for more photos of Samantha
