Hi everyone, my dear friends in the Black and White community. Hope everything's going well there.

I'm Menti, and I'm back with another photo shoot and another blog post. Today, I'm sharing some photos I took at the end of the groom's makeup sessions on different days.

Amin unique is one of the best makeup artists around, and he's absolutely amazing at grooming grooms for their big day. Plus, he's incredibly fast! It's funny because despite having a full beard, he occasionally shaves it all off for a fresh new look.

I take photos after the makeup is finished. One of my favorite shots is when I capture the groom sitting in a chair, while Amin and I are working right in front of the mirror. It's a timeless photo that captures the moment perfectly.

Sometimes, I come up with fun ideas. For example, there was this groom who had a classic, cool, and youthful French Peugeot 206. We came up with a cool pose: I stood in front of the car, leaning on the hood, Amin sat behind the wheel, and the groom leaned against the door with his bouquet.

For another shot, we used the white garage door with the Younic logo graffitied on it as our backdrop. We used a wide-angle lens and shot from a low angle, placing the groom in the center between us. We were all busy doing our own thing, and it turned out to be a really great photo.

That's it for my blog post today. I usually photograph makeup salons at weddings and parties, and then I join the wedding celebration until late at night.

It's important to remember that the lens you choose and the angle from which you shoot can make a huge difference in a photo. For this shoot, we relied solely on natural light, and I'm thrilled with how everything turned out

Thanks for reading! Have a great day.
