A DAWN BRIDAL EDITORIAL SHOOT A series of images shot at dawn back in late fall/early winter in Franklin TN. Steve is an amazing photographer and has nudged me into dawn shoots - which is a miracle, in and of itself getting to the studio to do makeup and hair at 4 am to get to shoot the dawn light. Brave model Lauren Staggs is perfection. I chose pastel makeup colors for the cool dawn light to warm colors to compliment the fall colors in the background. I love these images.

Here are a few unedited iPhone images I take of my clients before & after their trial or wedding day sessions with me. I consider it an honor to get to know my clients in such a personal way and believe all women, at any age, are truly beautiful. Some are shown before, others are just after makeup. All ages from 23 to 80 are represented. As always I'm thrilled to hear your thoughts! ~Lisa Makeup Before & After, Bridal Makeup in Nashville, Women Over 40 Makeup Tips in Nashville, Airbrush Makeup in Nashville |

Should I hire a professional makeup artist for my wedding? Lisa Johnson of Brides by Lisa - Nashville Bridal Makeup Artist Of course I'm going to say YES! ...and here is why: Let's face it -you've spent a pretty fortune on the venue, photographer, your dresses, flowers, food, entertainment and all the little details that go into your wedding day. You're more than likely hiring a hairstylist. Your bridal makeup is generally the last touch before dressing and walking down the aisle. As a professional makeup artist, I know what makeup works for photography AND in natural light. I believe everyone in my makeup chair should look fresh, beautiful and uniquely them - which is why I craft a personalized look for my clients. To help you visualize, look at my portfolio of work and you will see many looks - not just one style. This shows my range as an artist. This advice goes for any artist’s work you are considering. I work on location at your venue, and that saves you so much stress and running around. I bring my professional kit full of hand-picked, camera-ready makeup and skincare products that work for all ages, all skin tones and needs. I'm well known not only for my beautiful bridal makeup but also for my women over 40+ clients - and you know your mothers (aunts and grandmothers) will feel especially beautiful knowing they look amazing. Plus it's an incredible bonding experience and memory you all will always share. Having professional makeup really helps when you're being photographed – and you ARE being photographed on your wedding day – like no other day. You also have the added bonus of a cohesive look for your valuable photography. Simply put, you're all gussied up with your finery and heading to thechurch and reception after – all looking gorgeous! I’ve been lucky enough to have worked with hundreds of brides over the years and I consider it an honor to help each bride look their very best. It's why I do what I do. So if what I've told you helps you consider professional makeup for your wedding day - hire me as your artist and I promise to show you how beautiful you are. ___________________________________________________________________________ Lisa Johnson is a Nashville-based makeup artist working in the fields of commercial, beauty, print ad and high definition media.

BRIDES BY LISA Why you need to consider hiring a professional makeup artist (ME!) for your wedding. You have your gorgeous wedding dress - your bridesmaids dresses - your mother and/or mother of the groom are excited and looking forward to being a part of your day - you have the beautiful venue - the flowers - the little details like the shoes and jewelry - you have your hairstyling in mind (or somewhat) - and of course your professional photographer who will be taking pictures of you and everyone like no other day of your life. I consider your wedding day makeup and "look" an integral part of your planning - the final polish.  My expertise is in making you look absolutely STUNNING at all angles - in all lighting environments - as well as helping to keep the beauty production flowing so you are on time. I've had brides tell me they didn't want to even take their lashes or makeup off during their honeymoon. I've had mothers and grandmothers contact me to thank me for making them look gorgeous for the first time in years. These declarations always make me happy and a lot of why I do what I do! As a makeup artist, I'm well known for my clean beauty makeup - and many brides love this fresh, youthful look. Maybe you have a high fashion look you're dreaming of for your very formal wedding - you want glamourous faux lashes and everyone to look pulled together and cohesive. Whatever your heart desires, we will work on creating what works perfectly for you. And as my bridal client, your beauty and happiness are my focus. I am there to take the stress off of you - no running around all over town, worrying about being late or lost - having me there while everyone is getting ready is a calming experience for everyone. You will look and feel STUNNING with your final polish before you walk down that aisle! Contact me today to book your trial - let me show you how beautiful you are. YOU, only better! ™ |

NASHVILLE BRIDAL MAKEUP I just saw this wild wedding music video on Junebug Weddings site and had to share it with you all! Many of you brides are considering a videographer for your wedding - and it's really a big thing now - and probably will continue to be in the future too. Well this isn't just any video - this is a major choreographed wedding music video to the Black Eyed Peas song "The Time (Dirty Bit)" including the entire wedding party - shot during their wedding of course. The music is a little unconventional maybe - your music and style can easily be incorporated. All the more reason to have great makeup and hair, right? ;) This amazing wedding planner went above and beyond, I'd say! Without further ado: |
