I have had the great opportunity of working with the Trained Eye a wedding photography training company in Buckinghamshire. The tutors are inspiring and the wedding locations and models are super. I recommend this course to any budding wedding photographers out there. The makeup for these shoots is always very natural with soft textures and a long lasting finish.
