I am a traveling freelance makeup artist. Makeup has been my passion for over 10 years and I have been doing makeup professionally for less than a year. Makeup has always helped me feel beautiful, confident, and radiant and it's such a pleasure to be able to do it for others!

I would easily recommend Macy to anyone! She did the most beautiful makeup for myself, my two sisters, and my mother. It was absolutely stunning and lasted all night long! It also showed up beautifully in photos. In addition to being amazing at her craft, Macy is so lovely to work with. She has such a calm and welcoming presence. She makes you feel comfortable, confident, and relaxed on your special day! I could not be more happy with my decision to have her to do my bridal makeup. Thank you, Macy!!️

Anne did a wonderful job with my makeup for my wedding day! I have never had my makeup professionally done so it was hard to know what to ask for, the trial helped so much with this! I was nervous about finding someone who would be able to work with redheads and Anne was able to perfectly match my skin tone and eyebrow color. Anne was such a calm presence the morning of the wedding. She was able to exactly capture my vision and I felt beautiful! Makeup held for the entire day and photographed amazingly.

I can't recommend Marisa enough! I first met Marisa about a year ago while attending her fitness classes, and shortly after, I found out she did bridal hair and makeup. I immediately booked a trial, and fell in love with how it turned out! From that moment, I knew she was the one I wanted to do my wedding makeup! Marisa also brings such amazing energy to the process—she’s your biggest cheerleader and makes you feel like the best version of yourself, inside and out.

One can hardly describe the magic of a wedding morning. The soft hum of anticipation, the laughter tucked between moments, and the memories that will linger long after. Together with your stylist, your look is planned in careful detail, harmonizing with your dress, your vision, and the vibe you are creating. On the day, we arrive prepared with artistry and expertise, letting the morning unfold effortlessly. Every look is created to feel timeless in photographs, yet as natural as it is refined.

Meghan and her team were absolutely wonderful to work with. The hair trial was extremely informative and gave me the confidence Meghan would execute a perfect hairstyle on the wedding day. On the wedding day, she and Nora worked so well with everyone, were accommodating to a last minute time/schedule change. My bridesmaids and mom were also so happy with their hairstyling! And the photos speak for themselves - my hair lasted all day and all night (from 8am until almost 3am)! I cannot recommend Meghan enough!

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Nikki. From start to finish, she was an absolute dream to work with. Even during our very first call, she went above and beyond—offering thoughtful guidance and great recommendations for my pre-wedding skincare routine. On my wedding day, Nikki handled hair and makeup not only for me, but also for six women in my bridal party—and she did it all with the most thoughtful, kind, patient, and calming presence. For my own look, she created the most beautiful, elegant ponytail that was exactly what I had envisioned. It felt soft and natural, stayed perfectly in place all day, and photographed flawlessly. Nikki took the time to listen to what each person in my bridal party wanted and made everyone feel comfortable, confident, and truly seen. She was honest and helpful with her suggestions, incredibly organized, and somehow kept the entire morning running seamlessly without ever making us feel rushed. My hair and makeup turned out exactly as I had hoped—natural, timeless, and flawless from morning to night. Beyond her talent, what truly sets Nikki apart is her heart. She brings such warmth and positivity into a room, and it made the entire experience feel so special. I am endlessly grateful to have had her as part of our day and would recommend her to any bride a thousand times over.

Hello beautiful people! My name is Jocelyn and I have been a makeup artist for over 8 years, pursuing this full time the last 3! I have loved makeup my entire life and my love has just grown as I have gotten older. Communication and trust with my clients is extremely important to me! I always make sure we have time to talk about exactly what kind of look you are looking for. I look forward to welcoming you to my chair!

Jocelyn was an absolute delight to work with for my wedding day makeup. Her communication style was speedy, personal, and energetic - she always responded quickly to any questions I had and made me feel like an individual, not just another client. The quality and value of her work was amazing. She didn't use a one-size-fits-all approach but really tailored the look to me. When she was done I truly felt beautiful, confident, and ready to walk down the aisle. On the day itself Jocelyn arrived right on time and came bearing a lovely gift, which was so thoughtful. She worked efficiently and professionally to make sure my makeup was perfect before zipping off to her next appointment.

A different wedding makeup artist recommended me to Danny and specifically said he is the only person she likes to do her own makeup. That was an immediate good sign for me. When I first reached out to him his kindness and sincerity were the first things I noticed. He was super professional and thorough but also very easy to talk to. I ended up doing two makeup and hair trials and felt really good about my look after the second one. Lia was the hair stylist who Danny recommended and works with frequently. They were both very understanding and just wanted me to feel my best. They were right on time the day of the wedding, had such a calming presence and everyone was so happy with their hair and makeup. One of my bridesmaids who didn’t originally sign up for makeup asked to have hers done because of how much she loved everyone else’s and because we had enough time he was able to do it. After the wedding everyone said how well my makeup and hair lasted and you can tell in the photos as well! Danny and Lia were great listeners, super fun, very approachable and easy to talk to in the process of figuring out what I liked and didn’t like and just really skilled at their craft. Their pricing was also very reasonable and you could tell their passion and love for what they do was their drive. Danny was great at communicating and really organized as well. I would highly recommend them both!!

Sara is the ultimate hype woman, literally every step of the way she made me feel gorgeous and radiant, all while simply highlighting my features, rather than hiding me behind a million layers of makeup. She was able to achieve my “anti-bride” look flawlessly and the morning of my wedding she was my calm rock in an anxious storm. The makeup itself stayed put all day and evening, despite crying and lots of dancing, and felt like I was wearing absolutely no makeup at all!

She was so accommodating when I changed my mind about how I wanted my hair styled, and the end result was absolute perfection - glamorous, professional, and perfect for a bride. Geri's work is truly top-notch, and she has such a warm and personable personality. I felt like the most beautiful version of myself on my wedding day thanks to Geri. I would recommend them to any bride looking for a hair and beauty team that will deliver stunning, flawless results.

Victoria from Victoria_luxemakeup was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding day. She is very kind and easy to communicate with, which made the whole process so smooth. She is so talented - I was amazed at how she was able to create unique, elevated looks for each of my bridesmaids, rather than just copying the same style. Victoria took the time to analyze each person's face to determine the best approach, and the results were stunning. We even became friends after the wedding! Victoria was also perfect with her timing, finishing everyone's makeup right on schedule. The atmosphere was enjoyable and I'm so grateful for her contribution to making our special day perfect.
