We were so excited to join Jose Villa’s Italy Workshop. He is such an amazingly talented artist and we always jump at the opportunity to work with him! We had a great time styling hair and makeup for the models. Here are some of our favorite shots!
Airbrush Foundation
One of the two types of makeup offered by T.E.A.M. Hair and Makeup, that sets them apart from the competition, is airbrush makeup. The difference that it makes can be explained if you think of the difference between a regular old TV screen, versus a high definition TV screen. Airbrush makeup is used in most celebrity photshoots, runway shows, movies, and more, because it delivers flawless results. Because the makeup is sprayed onto the skin with compressed air, it comes out in microscopic specks that spread evenly over the skin, creating an even skin tone, and the most natural effect available. It truly looks like your own skin. Or if your skin is not perfect, it looks like the perfected version of your own skin!
Airbrush makeup can be used to apply all of your makeup, but T.E.A.M. uses airbrush mostly for foundation, bronzer and blush. Airbrushing makes all the difference on your special day, for perfect photos that you will cherish for years to come.
Eleven years ago, Mar Romero took a lifelong dream, and a chance, using her artistic talent to launch T.E.A.M. Hair and Makeup. Moving back in with Mom and Dad and pooling all of her resources to go after her vision, Mar created what we know now as the most highly revered, Santa Barbara-based on-location styling company for weddings throughout the United States.
Mar Romero, a fourth-generation Latina with Mexican parents, was raised in San Diego, with dreams even as a little girl of becoming a stylist. A completely self-taught artist of her own design, Mar’s art form goes above and beyond perfection. Her vision for each individual bride is one of true talent and ability. Perseverance and dedication has taken her from being a young and confident entrepreneur, to a master of her trade.
In ten years, Mar and her “T.E.A.M.” have worked with thousands of brides throughout Santa Barbara, San Diego, Los Angeles and beyond, to Mexico, Hawaii, and Las Vegas, just to name a few locations outside of Southern California. TEAM’s outstanding reputation only increases each season, being “The Source” for wedding styling throughout Southern California.
“For me, the most important aspect of working with a bride is to make her feel as confident as possible. Every woman is beautiful on her wedding day, and for me, as a stylist, confidence is the purest form of beauty. So, if the bride feels the most confident about herself, her beauty will reflect how she feels inside”, states Mar Romero, reflecting on her ten years of being a wedding stylist.
When a bride books with T.E.A.M., she gets the royal treatment with a 2-hour trial, where the bride can choose from either airbrush or traditional makeup, merging her ideas with Mar’s expertise. Mar and her team come to the location where the bridal party will get ready, and create stunningly timeless looks that are in line with the bride and bridal party’s vision for the wedding.
