Go for a test run with your makeup artist:

Firstly, know what looks good on camera and what not. As a ,matter of fact, cameras tend to capture yellowish and orangish shades better than the others.

Now that you know the right kind of makeup for your D-day, you may go for a test run with your makeup artist. Make sure that your wedding makeup looks great in all types of light.

Know what hairstyles look the best in pics:

Just like there’s a specific kind of makeup that looks good on camera, there are certain hairstyles that are great for getting the perfect wedding stills. As a matter of fact, sleek hairstyles like a tight, low bun can actually make you look bald on camera. So, it’s advisable to avoid such hairstyles and rather go for voluminous or side swept hairstyles as they look impeccable on camera.
