Steph did my make up and hair for my wedding day. She was absolutely amazing. I couldn’t of asked for better. I gave her a few pictures of inspiration and she nailed it better than I could’ve ever imagined. I’ve never felt so beautiful in my life. I would recommend her 1000 times over and definitely will hire Steph again for any future events! If you’re looking for a hair and make up artist higher, Steph, you will not be disappointed. She is so sweet and she is good at what she does.

Stephanie was amazing! Not only did she do an incredible job of our hair and make-up (and showed up at 5:25 in the MORNING to get started), she also handled the many...umm, personalities...involved in the wedding party with professionalism, grace, friendliness, and a sense of humor that made everyone feel at ease. She did hair and make up for my mom and I, and hair for 3 of my bridesmaids and my 4 year old daughter- to say that she is versatile would be putting it mildly. My mom and I got so many compliments on our make up and all of us were complimented on our hair throughout the day- it felt great to know we were in capable hands. I can't recommend Stephanie highly enough- thank you so much to her for giving each of us a perfect look that lasted the full 12 hour wedding celebration (including my rambunctious 4 year old's hair)!

FAQs
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Learning from and working with other artist is my way of continuing education. Also just getting inspired by celebrities, trends or any form of art.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
It was really by accident I didn't know this is what I wanted. It just sounded fun, but it is a lot of hard work and patience. I just fell in love with the ability to be creative and making people feel good about themselves or accomplishing areas I never imagined. Like tv/film/celebrities. I mean how cool is it to say you've worked on so and so...it's a fun career and never the same with any client so constant change is good!
What types of customers have you worked with?
Most of my work comes from bridal, and then video. I do a lot of video for media companies and well as headshots for working professionals. That is fun but it's really just applying everyday light makeup looks (as if they did themselves). But bridal is so fun and much more creative I love the dress up concept.
