Ok So I think after looking up makeup artist websites I rather do my own makeup! They charge so much and I do a way better job then the jobs Iv'e seen they do! All I need help looking for is a FOUNDATION for that day, something that will come out great in "pictures" like an airbrush look! Please help if you can suggest brands!
P.S. I use bare minerals everyday but for that day i wanted Photogenic makeup.

try going to Sephora and getting a sample of Make Up For Ever Mat Velvet liquid foundation.. apply w/ wet sponge or brush, and it makes ur skin look great! has great coverage too..... u barely need concealer when using it.
also, try getting a primer to wear underneath like Smashbox to make it last long..... it really turns out well in photos. dust translucent powder on top of foundation (or ur mineral veil) to set everything! good luck, and congratulations!

Its hard to suggest a brand since I am not an expert and plus every skin type (depending the type of skin-dry, oily, combo. how sensitive your skin is etc).
However, I had a friend who entered in a beauty pageant and for those purposes they do a really thick layer of foundation and since its a long event and the girls may be sweating causing the make up to run or fade. They first take ice and rub it all over your skin before they actually aplly a layer of foundation to make it smooth and long lasting.
As far as getting the air brush look. Once again thats a work of art depending on your features. If you have want to appear with more cheekbones you can look up one of my best answers for having that effect. If you want bigger eyes you can apply a white liner underneath your upper lid and then do a regular liner over it.
If your nose is wide you can run or apply a bronzer or a brown (skin tone) shade eyeshadow along the sides of your nose bridge allowing then to appear sharper in the camera.
This is getting long but you can google and find videos of stuff.
Good luck and congragulations on your wedding :)

You can go to WWW.marykay.com. and check out their main web site for Bridal Tips. You can also locate a consultant in your area that will come and show you a Bridal look and help you find a foundation for your skin. You need to use a foundation that does not reflect light and make your skin look lighter in pictures. The new MK Foundations are great for that and the fact that they will not rub off on clothes when you hug! Good luck on your Special Day!!

The make-up is called "Picture Perfect" make-up..It is sold in a few salons. I have seen people with it on and it hides every freckle, wrinkle or imperfection you have. I am also looking for it for my wedding day. I used everyday minerals ,but like you I wanted photogenic make-up

Go to your local MAC Counter and explain what you need and are looking for. They will show you what Foundation will be right for you and also the majority of their artists freelance and do weddings. I hired a MAC artist for my wedding and he did an amazing job. My makeup looked amazing in the pictures...

you can go to the mall with a digital camera and go up to each makeup counter and try on different foundations. Then when you get home look at the photos and find out which one you liked the most.

If you have a little extra to spend I would suggest using Smashbox. They have a 'photo finish' line that have the right light reflectors for when you are taking photos (so you dont come out shiney or washed out).
Go to your local stockist (Ulta, Sephora) and get them to try it on you and see how you like it. They will show you the right technique to use and its free.

you can get sally Hansen's air brush makeup at Walgreen's, I've never tryed it but my sister has and it worked great on her. Be sure to try this at least 2 weeks before the wedding, you do not want to develop an allergy on your face the day of your wedding and 2 weeks is good because its enough time to get over it before the wedding.
congrats and good luck.
