My Signature StyleMy signature style is what I refer to as "Enhanced, yet natural”. It's light handed, refined, and just enough to feel polished and beautiful. What you won’t find in my portfolio is full coverage glam, heavy lashes, thick winged eyeliner, or traditional "glam" makeup. Even my most glamorous looks have an air of naturality to them!

My ServicesI offer a variety of full-service packages designed to provide a seamless, stress-free wedding day experience. Whether you need hair and makeup for just yourself or your entire bridal party, I'm here to create a relaxed and supportive beauty experience. In addition to wedding day services, I also offer on-location hair and makeup for your rehearsal dinner or welcome party, so you can look and feel your best throughout your entire wedding weekend.

Beauty ConciergeWedding days are long and you'll likely be stepping into your gown hours before your ceremony. Beauty Concierge allows me to support you through pre-ceremony moments, like first looks and bridal portraits, to ensure you are fresh-faced and photo-perfect at all times. This includes drying your tears, lip and sweat touch-ups, adjusting your hair, styling your veil, or helping to carry your gown and bouquet. These important services are especially valuable for brides who anticipate lots of tears, and during hot, windy or rainy months.

Exceptional Quality & ExperienceNot every hair and makeup artist is equipped to handle the unique demands of a wedding day. Because I exclusively specialize in weddings, I know that successful wedding days run like a well-oiled machine. Hiring an experienced artist who specializes in weddings helps to ensure that your entire morning runs smoothly (and most importantly, on time!)

MY
philosophy
Hair and makeup is so unique to each person's preferences and tastes. My goal is to enhance your natural features so you can feel like the best version of yourself on your wedding day. When I hand you the mirror, you won’t ask, ‘Who is that?’—you’ll say, ‘Oh, there she is!’
