      Highlighted Vendor:: Gunpowder n Gloss

      Posted in Business, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Uncategorized, Vendors, WeddingsTags: , , , , , ,

      Over the past few years,  I have been extremely blessed to get to know wedding vendors.  They are the behind the scenes people that help make a wedding day even more fabulous with their talents and abilities. I have chosen a few vendors turned friends to interview and share more about them, because I think they are so wonderful at what they do!

      First off I want to share my wonderful friend and talented make up artist Chris of Gunpowder n Gloss. Chris and I met when I photographers her wedding back in 2014. She now does on-site make up and has a few other business ventures up her sleeve in the next couple months!

      I asked her to share more about her business with me!

      Describe you business. Rewarding, fun, and life-changing.

      How long have you been in business? I have been in business since 2014

      Why did you start your business? I decided to start my makeup on location for brides because I have always had a passion for working with bridal clients throughout my cosmetic career ; I love making women feel beautiful in their own makeup style.
      Also another large part of my decision to start a business was having my first daughter Kelly Lynn; I wanted the opportunity to have a career and be home with her.

      What have weddings taught you? Weddings have taught me to slow down and enjoy the moment, , it goes so fast on your special day!

      Describe your style. My style has always been country chic

      What is the best thing you have seen on a wedding day? The best thing I saw on someone’s wedding day was the groom wiping away his brides tears at the alter; so touching and sweet!

      Where do you find inspiration? Some of my sources of inspiration for my work is my love for the country lifestyle!

      What do you do to wind down after a long day if work? I love to wind down after a long day of work with my favorite cocktail in the summer! In the cold winters by the fireplace with some hot tea.

      Tell me something more about your business? I have been told I do amazing work, super easy to work with, fun to talk to, and that my team and I are highly professional. I always put my client needs first and always ensure they will be happy with their makeup look.
      One thing I do that is important; I walk thru my process for the client; it is nice to make them a part of the application so they don’t feel clueless in what I am doing on their face; clients seem to really appreciate that!

      See more of Chris’ work or touch base with her on Facebook or Instagram!

          How to plan your Insta posts

          Posted in Business, Minneapolis, St. PaulTags: , , , , , , , , ,

          This past fall, as many of you know, I hired a social media manager to manage my Instagram and Facebook accounts.  Susan was incredible, and I hired her through my busiest season for help, but what about this off season?  Now that she isn’t working for me I still want to manage my social accounts but not be tied to them when my kids are home.  SO… I looked into a few different scheduling systems.  If you are looking for something to help you plan and look through, these are the tree I considered.  Which one am I using…. read on!!

          Buffer:: This is the system that Susan and I started with.  From the little I know about it, Buffer is a system to plan both your Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter feeds.  It was great because we could each see what Susan was planning and if I needed to post anything, I could see what was planned!

          Plann:: This was a system Susan suggested to me and I loved the way you were able to plan out the entirety of the month and see how all the squares would look when everything was put together. And I loved that you could put hashtags into categories so that they were all there for later use. The only thing I did not love about this was that it was only applicable for phones and tablets, and I was looking for a system that I could use with my desktop

          Cue in Planoly:: Now this is the system that I have been using. There is a desktop customization, an app for my phone and has the hashtag categorization system.  I have been using it for almost 2 months now, and I am in love with this!  When I need to post something, I get a notification on my phone, and the rest is done for me.

          If you are looking for a system to streamline your planning process for Instagram, I would check these out to see which is right for you!
