How stunning is all the makeup? Brilliantly done by Erane Hobbs. A Cape Town makeup and hair artist that specializes in hair and makeup. Speaking of makeup, your bridal session is the perfect time to get to know your makeup and hair artist, and make sure that everything is wedding ready for your big day.
Your bridal session is another great opportunity to test out hair styles that you may have been contemplating over. Possibly a sock bun, french twist or just wavy and down. We love the sock bun in this shoot, to see how to do your own sock bun click here.
