I have never had my makeup done, so I was overwhelmed as the Mother of the Bride, having to book makeup for my daughter and myself. I contacted several makeup professionals, including one who had worked with a friend, but as soon as I talked to Sara, I knew she was the one. Her personality was warm. She was fun to talk to and answered all of my questions. On the day of the wedding, Sara arrived early to set up. She texted me and kept me informed of her arrival. Her work was impeccable. She made me look like me, just better and picture-ready. My daughter looked beautiful! The makeup was perfect, and it lasted all night. Sara went above and beyond that day. It was humid for May, and my daughter's hair was coming undone. Sara went to work on her hair too and showed me how to fix it. She was a lifesaver! I was not sure what to expect, but I can tell you that Sara will make you feel special. She takes her work seriously, and it shows. She did an unbelievable job on both of us, and she is a very nice person too. I will use her again if I am the "Mother of the groom." I highly recommend Sara Parente!

Sara did my makeup for my maternity photo shoot. She was very easy to communicate with leading up to that day, and answered all my makeup questions I had in advance. She was so nice and fun to work with, I really enjoyed having my makeup done by her and love how everything came out! I especially appreciate her taking the time to make sure I was 100% happy with how everything looked before photos. It truly made me feel so confident and happy going into our photo shoot. highly recommend Sara for any of your makeup needs!
