Your wedding day is one of the most memorable days of your life. Walking down the aisle with a glowing complexion, sparkling eyes and confidence to match is essential for you to truly shine as you celebrate true love.

FAQs
Q. When should I organise a trial
A. I recommend a skin fitness routine begins 6-12 months before your big day but a makeup trial is usually best 6-12 weeks prior to your wedding. The trial is a chance for us to design your entire look so you can feel confident and relaxed on your big day.
Q. Can you do any kind of look?
A. Absolutely! My signature is creating flawless makeup that still lets your own beauty and individuality shine through. A professionally trained artist should always be able to translate your ideas into a look you are delighted with. And pictures help us confirm exactly what you have in mind. We specialise in everything from natural glam to ultra glam.
Q. Which products do you use?
A. I use a selection of the best professional and luxury products from around the world. I handpick the hero products from each range and am constantly updating my kit. I also stock Australian, organic, vegan and cruelty-free makeup so I have something suitable for every bride’s tastes.
Q. Can you match my skin tone?
A. I have experience with brides from very mixed backgrounds and trained as a film makeup artist so I am confident to mix a custom colour to match your skin perfectly. As a spray tan technician I can also match to your tan and avoid any two-tone face/body disasters!
Q. Do you travel for weddings?
A. Yes please! Whether it’s within Australia or overseas – I have done weddings on the Sunshine Coast, in Byron Bay, Sydney, Bali and the UK – I am always happy to consider destination weddings.
Q. Do you offer hair styling as well?
A. Although I am a competent hair stylist, I prefer to concentrate on creating flawless makeup for most weddings. I have a selection of talented and experienced hair stylists who I can co-ordinate to take excellent care of your tresses.
Q. If I book with you will I get you on my wedding day?
A. Of course! I work on a first-in first-served basis and prefer to book only one wedding per day. If I am already booked you will be advised that a personally-trained, senior artist from my trusted team is available for you on your wedding day but I will supervise your trial.
Q. What are your rates?
A. Although we have standard rates it's impossible to offer one standard package as every bride and their wedding is original and unique. It is best for you to enquire and provide as many details as possible including your date, location and your wedding story, so I can tailor a quote specifically to your individual needs. There are no hidden fees in my pricing, so the only surprises you get are the wonderful complimentary gifts!
