Want wedding photos where your skin looks luminous, not orange—and your white dress stays pristine? We brought back Shawna “The Bridal Bronzer” Jackson of Tans2You to break down the art and timing of a flawless, camera-ready spray tan for brides, grooms, and the whole party. From smart prep to custom undertones, Shawna shares exactly how to get believable color that reads as healthy skin, not makeup.
We dig into the details that matter: exfoliation and hydration that make color last, the three-to-four day wedding window that prevents transfer, and why a trial tan beats day-of heroics every time. Shawna explains how modern violet and olive-based formulas match undertones across complexions, why light-and-airy photography benefits from a subtle glow, and how pros blend bra strap lines, wrists, and ankles so your skin looks even in close-ups. We also talk mobile spray tan parties, add-ons like collagen and hydration boosters, and rapid vs overnight development for busy schedules.
If you’ve sworn off tanning beds or baking in the sun, “spray, don’t lay” is your new mantra—safer, faster, and tailored to the finish you want. You’ll learn how to avoid dress stains, what products to skip on tan day, and how long a well-maintained tan can last. Grooms, this one’s for you too: a light, custom glow reads as refreshed and confident on camera without screaming “tan.”
