Bridal Preview Information

My studio

is located at 2308 Union Street.

I suggest parking up the hill, West of Steiner (away from the Union Street shops). I often leave my car all day, but you will have a break to check on your car, if necessary, as all street parking is 2 hours. I do not recommend parking at a meter, you will need to fill it.

Please bring a minimum of 5 pictures of hair and 5 pictures of makeup. A favorite celebrity  on the red carpet can be  great for inspiration, don't feel like you need to stick to images of typical “wedding” hair and makeup! You are welcome to bring photos from my own website or instagram. Be a wary of Pinterest, which can skew towards dated or overly photoshopped looks.

You should come in with a clear idea and firm decision on what shape you want your hair (up, down, partially up) but we will have an in depth consultation to figure out the details together. Be sure to also bring pictures of your wedding dress, any jewelry and your veil if you will be wearing one.

Please come with clean hair, either dry or damp is fine. I also suggest wearing a white shirt with a neckline similar to your dress. If you plan on wearing hair extensions, please bring those to the preview as well (I recommend Luxy Hair).

Previews typically take a minimum of 3 hours, please plan accordingly. The preview is our chance to get to know each other, please come by yourself. Additional guests or family members are not permitted for the first 2 hours, but are welcome to join at the end of session. The rate for the preview can be paid for with cash or by Zelle on the day or added to your final invoice. If you need to reach me the morning of your preview, please text or call me at 707.217.2256.

Thank you!
