At Empire Agency, we take our Bridal Business Seriously! Our staff of wedding artists are the best in California. We have been guaranteeing our bridal clients happiness years! Our expert professionals use only the best professional products that are long lasting, look great close up and photograph beautifully both indoors and outdoors. As if that isn't enough, they are also waterproof and cry proof; something of major importance for a long, emotional day!   Empire's artists have each had extensive training in many areas of professional makeup artistry and many years of experience. We have perfected the art of bridal makeup. Most makeup artists are self taught. We are proud to say that our staff isn't winging it! They've educated themselves with the proper knowledge and skills to satisfy even the toughest clients. All of Empire's bridal artists are formerly educated and experienced. Our staff travel to you on the wedding day, saving stress and driving time on this physically and emotionally exhausting day. In addition, our artists are prepared with a 50+ item "emergency bag" for most any pre-wedding crisis such as scissors, dental floss, safety pins, band-aids etc. With this, the artist calmly keeps the bridal party on their "time track" to avoid extra panic, stress and the photographer's overtime fees when the bridal party isn't on time for photos.     Our artists have had serious trainings in order to bring out the best in a bride. Empire's artists can custom mix a foundation to your exact skin tone and completely conceal any blemish, age spot, dark circle, splochiness, discoloration, redness, tan line or tattoo. This training will also enable our artists to bring out your eye color like you've never seen before. Empire's artists can create a look for you that will completely emphasize your beauty without bringing attention to the makeup. Beauty makeup gives a softer look to the skin that's necessary when wearing white or shades of white. Most women want a special look for their wedding day yet do not want to look heavily made-up. Empire's artists are capable of creating different illusions of bone structure. This type of makeup is utilized to emphasize the best features & de-emphasize others. For example; sculped cheekbones, make the eyes bigger or more almond shaped, create the perfect nose by making it appear shorter or more narrow or straightened if it is crooked, hiding a double chin or creating a stronger jaw line on a weak chin or on a client with an overbite. Puffiness can also be hidden with this talent and cleavage can be emphasized or created if necessary. This type of education has prepared our staff to understand the many important details that are necessary to satisfying a bride. For example; recommending the appropriate colors or shades of makeup as well as designing an entire look that matches the bride's bone structure, skin tone, hair and eye color, personality and most importantly, create a look that harmonizes with the style, color and fabric of the gown. Empire's artists are educated to recommend an overall look by taking into consideration the photographer you have chosen, the type of work they do, the type of film they use, if you have chosen only color photos or additionally are adding sepia or black and white photos. With this information our staff can design your makeup to look equally great indoor with a flash camera and outdoors for the type of light you will be in. Makeup photographs much different in early morning, noon, sunset and evening light. Additionally, our artists are aware of how specific cosmetic brands, products & colors will photograph. For instance, some brands work well outdoors, but may look disastrous with an indoor flash.     Empire's artists are well trained, professional, experiences, and prompt. Let us help you create a timeless look for your special day.
