(Newswire.net — June 19, 2014) Jacksonville, FL — With the variety of wedding veils, headpieces and bridal hair accessories, it can be a real challenge to find the perfect hairstyle to compliment your wedding dress and makeup.
Jacksonville wedding photographer, Jaime Smith can relate to these challenges and has put together a guide to help. The guide features different hairstyles from 16 different brides with multiple shots from different angles and includes many updos and other wedding hairstyles for long hair.
Jaime says that the three most important factors in selecting a hairstyles is the bride’s personal style, the style of her wedding dress and the location of her ceremony.
A bride must consider how she feels the most beautiful wearing her hair in normal life and decide how it suits the style of the day.
More formal church ceremonies tend to pair well with an updo while a spring garden wedding might call for something more flowy like a half up half down style.
The next factor to consider is the style of her wedding dress and veil or headpiece. It’s important to make sure the hairstyle will be able to support the weight of her veil and if she decides to remove the veil after the ceremony the hairstyle must be flexible enough to not be ruined.
It’s important that the bride’s hair is not competing with her dress. Intricate hairstyles tend to go well with simple dresses and simple hairstyles tend to look good with a detailed neckline. Overall the bride should decide where she wants the focus to be.
The last factor to consider is the expected weather and location of your event. Wearing the hair down can get quite warm, especially in Florida and if the ceremony is outside the bride might be happier with a style that sweeps her hair up off of her neck.
“I have photographed many beach weddings and hair should always be taken into account.” Jaime says, “Long flowing hair can make or break wedding photography on the beach with high winds.”
