I am in a wedding where the gown I will be wearing is an apple deep fall red. What makeup should I wear to look good for the photography pictures that will be taken. I am fair skinned with light to meduim eyes and reddish hair?

Having attended many weddings, I have one sure piece of advice. Don't overdo the makeup. Go for a softer, natural look.

If you have a Macy's near by, MAC Cosmetics will do your make up and all you have to do is purchase
$60 in products. Bobbi Brown is also a great makeup line and more natural, MAC is more dramatic-- better for evening. But if you're doing it yourself, careful with the foundation and don't forget the blush or you'll look washed out in the pictures. Hope this helps.

Due to being a wedding and your complexion i'd suggest keeping it minimal perhaps a silver/grey or gold eyeshadow. Failing that a nice brown always looks good on a red head. Keep your lips in a nice nude/pale pink lip gloss. Make sure you invest in a good staying foundation it will cost more but worth its weight in gold as you need something thats not going to fade off before you get pictures taken.

If you have some time before the wedding. try going to a nearby mall and ask one of the makeup ladies to help you pick out colors that will enhance your features. Almost always they will be more the happy to help you. DON'T fall into the trap of buying their products though...way too much money. Pay attention to the colors they use and you CAN duplicate this look yourself.
Natural is best. Don't go to heavy or you will look to "made up"
CONGRADULATIONS

I would keep your make-up somewhat simple. Keep your blush light, and pic a sheer gloss that will make your lips look full. Play up your eyes. Use an eye shadow that looks fabulous on you and make them a bit more dramatic that your day to day eye look.
If you're nervous go to a Sephoria (If you have one around) or a make up counter and a large dept store and ask for them to try a few looks on you. Remember you should practice your new look a few times before the pics so you have it down pat.
Good luck! I hope you look stunning.

since the dress you are wearing is apple deep fall red i'm assuming its a fall or winter wedding.... wearing charcol or something to dark or to red would look takcy........ i'd say maybe try your browns and golds......... for eyeshadows and brown mascara and eyeline......and then your usuallys for your face and keep your lips neutral.........

You'll want to go for a natural look since your dress is so bright. Go with bronze, beige, and cream colored eye shadows/liner/massacra. For your lips go with a natural beige color.

dark brown for the eyes, a puny pink for the lips ( no red!!! ) and a natural brown for the cheeks, then to finish it off curl your eye lashes, and put on black mascara and black eye liner!
hope that helps!
