This is Melissa. She is my bestie. She is perfect. The End.
No but really, I had the honor of doing one of my best friends’ hair and makeup on the most important day of her life. When you’ve gotten your friends ready for dances, proms and countless nights out you’d think I’d be used to seeing them glammed up. But when I finished Melissa and she got in her dress and came out to show everyone my jaw dropped to the floor. She was exquisite. The vintage waves and super soft smudged smokey eye paired with her dress were just too dreamy for words. My favorite shots from Allison Conklin Photography are the ones with her dad. Seeing Mr.Richter who is a seemingly a tough guy, wrestling coach , football loving, manly man get choked up at the site of her was seriously the sweetest thing and the moments were captured perfectly.
