Amazing Makeup Trial & Engagement Photos

So far I had a hair/makeup trial and engagement photos with Elka, and I’m so happy with how everything turned out. The hair and makeup was stunning, and the photos turned out better than I could’ve hoped! Elka helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera, which is something we struggle with. My fiancé and I are so excited that she’s going to be a part of our big day. :)
