Looking your best in your wedding photos is very important. Finding the line between looking natural and looking washed out is a tricky one. So whether you are doing your own makeup or having a professional makeup artist do this for you, make sure you trial the look first. Get a friend to help you take some photographs so you can see how it will come out in photos.

Defining your eyes is very important in your wedding photos, so ensure you have your eye brows plucked and fill in any gaps with a stroke of eye shadow. Although, try to avoid harsh lines of liquid liners or pencils.
