I'm excited to share my interview with the wonderful Sue McLaurin.

Sue McLaurin is a professional freelance makeup artist with over 16 years experience in bridal, fashion, commercial and TV work. She began her career in Far North Queensland where she quickly grew a very busy bridal makeup business from 5 weddings in her first year to over 150 in her third year. After moving to Brisbane in 2007, Sue's focus turned to commercial and editorial makeup, while still working with 20-50 brides each year. A veteran of over 600 weddings, Sue is passionate about helping people feel good about themselves, through the power of makeup.

Something reminded me today that at some point in time, you are going to meet a bride, who seems like they might be your ideal bride but that you can just sense, is going to be trouble.

The problem is you are going to go through that mind struggle where you are thinking, "a wedding is a wedding and I need the money, I can't say no"

So today's episode is about how you can "Master the Art of Saying No".

I think I read a comment every day in the forums about " the Bride told me I was too expensive", "another makeup artist is charging only $30", "I don't want to drop my price but I need the work". It's so frustrating!

BUT before we head into my 6 Tips to Attracting a High-End Bride, I want you to take a look at your website, your social media images and your presence on the web. What do you portray to your brides?
