transformed

One of our friend's friends is studying at a school how to give people "the wedding look". They always need volunteers to practice on, so today a whole group of us went.

For the girls that meant 4 hours of hair and make up, for the guys, just showing up 15 min before the pictures where taken.

the before picture

first they rub your face with an ice cube, no kidding

intense colors seem to be the preference here

and for some reason the eyebrows get painted on like this

feeling like a movie star

trying to document the process

half way done                                                 done   

from the back

 Erlend being helped to put on a skirt by two guys, hm, not sure how I feel about that :-)

what if our wedding pictures would have looked like this? 

Alia was a bit to young to be dressed up as well

 not so this cutie though

the lady who did my make up

the after picture

and then it took 15 min to get all that paint off again - Alia was slightly confused, can you tell?
