About
I've been in this industry for over 15 years and have worked for lines such as Smashbox Cosmetics, MAC, Laura Mercier, Trish McEvoy, Make Up For Ever & Bare Minerals. But I also have favorite products from lines like NYX, Revlon, L'Oreal & Ardell.
I am passionate about helping people look & feel their best by enhancing their natural beauty with makeup, a great hairstyle & a gorgeous bronze glow!!! I use the highest quality products to give you the highest quality results. My kit for hair and makeup is filled with products from a variety of trusted beauty brands that are on trend as well as traditional staples ✨.
I believe that beauty is being the best version of yourself! Please allow me to help you believe this too!
Thanks XOXO - Steph
I love meeting new people and being a part of their special events. I have become friends with so many of my clients & really enjoy making their special occasions the best that they can be. From our initial meeting to the day of your big event, I will be with you every step of the way!
Plus, the creativity that my job allows me to express and explore is what keeps me so invested in this line of work. I am absolutely obsessed with makeup, skincare, tanning, hair styling & really anything pertaining to the Beauty and Fashion industries!!! Fashion and Beauty are my passion and each and every customer that I work with is a unique individual with their own ideas on what is beautiful and how they want to look. The fact that every job is different is what I love about my work.

Steph was fantastic! She listened to what I was envisioning and then created the exact look I wanted. She made me feel very special and that no amount of makeup is irreversible! She buffed out and bobby-pinned and hair-sprayed until I was absolutely sure about my look for my wedding. She also helped out with my mom's makeup and my husband's wedding look questions! Thanks, Steph!

SO VERY SWEET AND FUNNY OFF THE BAT. SHE REALLY PUTS YOU AT EASE AND IF YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT COLORS YOU'D LIKE ON YOUR FACE, SHE ASKS ABOUT YOUR DRESS AND COLORS OF THE WEDDING, TELLS YOU WHETHER THOSE KIND OF COLORS WOULD LOOK GREAT OR NOT AND SUGGESTS SOMETHING BETTER THAT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND AWAY! I'VE USED HER FOR 2 MORE EVENTS SINCE THEN BECAUSE SHE IS THAT GOOD. AS A MATTER OF FACT MY MOH WHO IS ONE THAT NO ONE TOUCHES HER FACE BECAUSE SHE DOES HER OWN MAKEUP WHICH IS PRETTY ENOUGH, ASKED ::) STEPHANIE COULD DO HER MAKEUP AS WELL BECAUSE SHE WAS BLOWN AWAY WITH MINE AND STEPHANIE EVEN GAVE HER BETTER TIPS TO APPLYING HER OWN MAKEUP IN THE FUTURE. STEPHANIE TRULY IS THE BEST, DON'T MISS OUT ON HER, SHE BOOKS UP QUICK BECAUSE OF HER AWESOME TANNING JOBS THAT SHE DOES AS WELL. THANKS SO MUCH STEPHANIE, I ALREADY MISS YOU AND I SERIOUSLY CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU ON THE 8TH OR 9TH OF SEPTEMBER FOR TANNING AND THE 10TH OF SEPTEMBER FOR MY MAKEUP!

Stephanie is the best! I picked Stephanie after looking at several other artists galleries and being disappointed with there work. I was so excited when I found Stephanie as her makeup work is amazing! I was still nervous as I was traveling from NJ to SD for my wedding and Stephanie put me at ease. She was great at communicating with me and asking me exactly what I wanted. The day of my event she was so fun and personable. She made me feel like I was hanging out with a girlfriend for the day :) She made me look even better than I could have imagined! My makeup was absolutely flawless and my hair looked great. I couldn't have asked for more. Stephanie even went out of her way to help my husband and I to have an even more special day. Thanks for everything!

I will work with any client who has a budget that happens to be less than my general pricing if I can. Please let me know what your spending limits are & if I can make it work I absolutely will. All you need to do is communicate with me. It's my goal to be able to help everyone who requests my services!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Talk with them beforehand to get an idea of the look they are interested in achieving for their specific event. Have the customer send me any photos they may have of their desired look so I can make sure I have the correct products with me on the day of their event. Arrange the time & place where I will meet them to do the hair & makeup.
I do suggest trials for weddings, however it's not mandatory. I am confident that I will make all of my brides and their maids look amazing!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have completed courses at Maquillage School of Beauty including the advanced wedding and special event hairstyling as well as the advanced airbrush makeup course! In addition to MSB, I have had the privilege and pleasure of being trained by senior level artists from multiple cosmetic brands including Smashbox, Bobbi Brown, Make Up For Ever, Bare Minerals, La Mer & Jo Malone. I attended College Beauty School courses in 1999-2000 including makeup 101, 201, 301 & Fashion/Film Makeup as well as classes for Small Business Owners and recently went back to take Social Media for Small Business Owners. However, nothing will ever compare to the hands-on learning that I was lucky enough to get while I worked at Neiman Marcus in Fashion Valley. I worked there for almost 10 years and was trained on the best makeup & skincare lines in the industry. My time there & the knowledge I gained is invaluable!
