About
Hi, I’m Mary, a freelance makeup artist specializing in wedding and event makeup. I’ve been a professional artist for 18 years, and I work confidently with all skin tones and facial features.
From soft, natural glam to bold, dramatic looks, I tailor your makeup to fit the occasion—weddings, birthdays, photo shoots, and special nights out. As a one-person business, you’ll always work directly with me, from consultation to the final touch-up.
During your appointment, I take the time to ask questions, listen closely, and translate your vision into a look that photographs beautifully and feels like you. My goal is for you to feel confident, radiant, and fully cared for on your special day.
If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced artist who truly cares, I’d love to connect and discuss your event.

Mary is a total professional. I gave reference photos of the look I was going for and she nailed it perfectly. She was responsive and her work speaks for itself. I received so many compliments on my make up and I owe it all to her.

Amazing job! It was 90 degree weather and non stop sweating and my face was perfect! I was not worried about it going anywhere, the quality of makeup and work done was top tier. If you’re considering booking, Mary is your gal!

We had such a wonderful experience with this makeup artist! She was incredibly kind, friendly, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the whole process. Her work was absolutely amazing—we felt beautiful and confident, and our makeup lasted beautifully throughout our friend’s wedding.
We received so many compliments all night! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and sweet makeup artist. Thank you so much for making our night extra special! 💕✨

I absolutely loved my makeup session with Mary! I hired her for my Maternity photoshoot and could not be more happy with the results. I wanted something natural/earthy, but with a touch of glam for my beach photoshoot and she delivered.
I have done my makeup professionally a few times, and haven’t always been 100% satisfied, but Mary understood my concerns, and used techniques that worked with my face.
She was also extremely nice and wonderful to converse with during the session. I will definitely hire her again and highly recommend her for your makeup needs!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I do offer discounts when I’m working with a large group. My lashes and travel fees are included in my pricing. I do add additional travel fees when the location isn’t local and that all depends where the location is.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
With a new client I ask a lot of questions. I want to understand what the client is looking for. The questions help me narrow down what type of look to create and the clients style. I never leave a client unhappy, I make sure I deliver exactly what they want.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a self taught makeup artist but also certified through Maquillage Academy of Makeup and Aesthetics. I am always improving and working on my skills to grow as a makeup artist.
