Lucky!!
Did you want neutrals or also some colorful shades in there? :) I'm doing some research for you!
Also, is it for photographic purposes only? Only weddings? :)

I found this:
https://www.makeupgeek.com/organization/how-to-organize-your-mac-eyeshadows/

From here, you can pick and choose your favorites! I know what mine are, but I don't think I can choose for you since only you know how you like to do makeup :)

I'd say essentials to have would be:
matte neutral shades (white, light beige, warm transition light brown, warm dark brown, cool dark brown, black)
"sheeny" neutral shades (highlight, pink, brown like Satin Taupe, metallics like copper, bronze, silver and gold)
colorful shades (green, purple, indigo, orange...you name it!)
I'd stay away from glitter shades since they don't photograph well. Also, the skin tone of your clients matters so get some shades that would suit anybody no matter what.

Do you have other palettes? Because if you own any of the Nakeds, you could go crazy on the colorful shades at MAC!

There are so many beautiful colors, but I would say for sure you'll want some of the neutrals but don't forget to add coppering to your list, it is a metallic, but it's such a beautiful flattering buttery shadow, I couldn't live without it.

You're welcome and I'd love to see it! and I agree, coppering is a wonderful shade, especially for blue-eyed beauties!
