Katie & Greg tied the knot this past September and everything (including her getting ready location) was done around the beautiful campus of Oxford University,¬†where they met!¬† The weather had been up & down that day but by the time Katie was dressed it couldn’t have been more beautiful.¬† And the amazing¬†Matt Pine of Lifetime Video captured every breathtaking moment.¬†

In addition to her photographer Mike Bresnen.¬† Robert Lee of Jones the Florist did her flowers, talk about¬†gorgeous.¬†¬†Makeup was kept soft & natural by Katie’s request and of course I couldn’t pass up in using some of¬†my favorite products for the look she wanted: Mally Beauty, MAC,¬†NARS and Laura Gellar
Below is a special “thank you” that I recieved from Katie..

Hi Chenese,
 
I just wanted to say thank you again for doing such a beautiful job on my make-up for my wedding day.¬† You made me feel¬†more glamorous than I ever have before!¬† I’m attaching some of the pictures that I just got back from our photographer¬†this week which showcases your beautiful work.¬† I feel so lucky to have worked with such a great team of professionals for my wedding.¬† I will be sure to recommend you to all the brides-to-be that I come across!

A few months ago I had the liberty in working with Cris Collinsworth on a photo shoot for GQ Magazine, talk about exciting, for the¬†September 2009 issue (which had Michael Jackson on the cover, one can’t feel more special than that).¬† And would you believe that I forgot to show you!¬† OMG how could I forget something like that!
Yes men get makeup for TV and photo shoots!¬† The typical term is called “styling and/or groomed”.¬† Working with Cris was a lot of fun and we actually had several things in common, but when he saw my airbrush machine, he said¬†”Aww yeah!”
The photographer was based out of NY and boy did I love chatting with him during the little free time we had.¬† Even though I’ve had my work in many magazines, this one had been on my¬†”wish list” for years, so when I got the call honey I got so excited, plus and I received magazine credentials representing KETT Cosmetics (which sells the airbrush foundations I use and love so much).¬† Lovely!
