AE featured in Today's Bride

Atelier Emmanuel hairstyling is featured on the Spring cover of Today's Bride!

The Mad Men inspired photoshoot featured our stylist Anastasia and makeup artist Lena Chavez. We worked with our regular photoshoot partner Tara Arrowood, of Arrowood Photography.

The feel of the era depicted in Mad Men was of course our base, according to Anastasia, We wanted the updo to have that mix of being structured yet soft and feminine. We modernized it a little with the colors we chose for the hair, and by giving the look a slight 'country feel' to go with the the photoshoot locale.

Lena is one of our regular collaborators on photoshoots. Here's a little bit about her approach to this shoot:
That era was very peaches and cream, very matte since there was no shimmer yet in cosmetics. I made her look very classic and clean with a focus on her lips. I love how everything came together from the fantastic hairstyle to the gorgeous dress, shoes and accessories.

If you look to page 181, you can also see our ad, featuring hairstyling by Charles! The updo is from a photoshoot which Charles also did with Tara Arrowood.
