FASHION PHOTO SHOOT AT DELAMERE MANOR

Here are the final edits from the beautiful fashion photoshoot at events venue Delamere Manor in Cheshire.  Talented photographer Daniella McGreavy took the images of our gorgeous models Beth Dunning and Singer / Songwriter Molly Tilston and the stunning dresses were by BALTHAZAR / Gary Hayes

A close up of Beth showing her Hair & Make-up.
For Beth's hair I used the Babyliss Pro Perfect curl to create the lovely bouncy curls with Oribe Dry Texturizing spray for volume.
I used some Laura Mercier products on the skin including silk creme foundation, universal powder and secret camouflage concealer to create a flawless finish.  For contouring I used Anastasia Beverly Hills contour kit and highlight on the cheekbones was one of my current favourite products Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Moonstone.  I wanted the eyes to be smokey but not too dramatic, for this I used the Semi-sweet chocolate bar palette by Too Faced. I used a gel liner for definition along the lashline which was Nars eye paint in black valley and finished the eye look with Red Cherry False lashes in 41 sundance.  For the lips I used two lip glosses Laura Mercier nectar and By Terry honeymoon kiss to create this lovely peachy colour.  Cheeks were an old classic colour Nars orgasm blusher

The lovely Signer / Songwriter Molly Tilston
For Molly's hair it was a glamorous yet slightly messy look which was created with heated rollers, backcombing, lots of hairspray and again a favourite of mine Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray.
I used the same products as with Beth for Mollys skin as I am always confident with Laura Mercier base products that they photograph beautifully.  For the eyes I used all Matt shades from the Tarte tartlette palette with gel liner flicked out, which again was Nars eye pain in black valley.  I love this Nars gel liner as its such a true black.  False lashes are Red Cherry, but I didn't keep to container so not sure of the style.  Contouring was with the Anastasia Beverlry Hills Contour kit as its just so universal for every skin tone with highlight by Laura Mercier.  For lips I used Lipstick Queen Silver Screen nude lipstick You kid and Nars blusher in deep throat.

I changed Beth's make-up slightly to compliment this dress with Becca Ultimate Colour  Gloss in Palm Breeze and Lorac Satin blush in Velvet Rope.
