Hi beautiful, my name is Kathryn I am a certified professional makeup artist with 9 years of experience and formal training from Glam Labs International Academy in NYC.
I work from my studio in my apartment on the West Side near the Yankee > stadium, close to the <Washington > bridge. Many of my clients travel in from surrounding areas because they trust my work and love the relaxed, private studio setting.
I create everything from soft, natural looks to full glam on all ethnicities. I listen closely to the look you want and won’t let you leave until you’re completely happy.

Kathy was such a doll!
She responded quickly to me and even suggested coming earlier than the time I said just to make sure I had enough time to go back home & finish getting ready for the 10am wedding ceremony. It was early in the morning when I went & she played spa music. I probably went in and out of sleep a few times 😂. This was my first time getting my makeup done and she made my experience amazing! Made me look like an African QUEEEEENN. My makeup lasted from 8am (when she finished) to 2am when I washed it off. I had my mask on & everything. It did transfer, but not to the point where it was noticeable that some makeup came off. She listened to my concern of textured skin & my neck being darker than my face, She took her time, explained what’s going on as she went. Also made sure to follow COVID guidelines when it comes to being a makeup artist. She checked up with me days leading to my big day & called the night before & gave me tips to prep my fave for makeup application. Talk about customer service! I can’t thank her enough!
Highly RECOMMEND!

Kathryn was so good from start to finish. She is very responsive, and answered any questions we had. I hired her to do me, my mom, my daughter and my best friend's makeup for my brother's wedding and let me tell you she did not disappoint. My mom is more mature looking and she had no issues making her look beautiful. My daughter is 13 and she did her makeup so appropriately yet still glamorous. And, for my friend and I, we were beyond happy with our full glam looks. The makeup lasted all night and looked amazing in pictures. I will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you Kathryn!

Kathryn did such a lovely job on my face. She was exceptionally patient and knowledgeable. She answered all my questions and educated me on best practices regarding makeup application as well as products being used. I received compliments all night at the formal event that I attended.
Thank you again Kathryn❤

I have to say. Planning a wedding is stressful enough and want to look your absolutely best on your special day. I had tried another artist prior to meeting Kathryn and it didn’t meet my needs. However with Kathryn it was an instant connection. She listened to my needs of wanting a flawless yet natural look for my wedding. She was so knowledgeable on my skin type and used the best products that made my makeup last all day!!! Kathryn knew how to highlight my face where she knew the camera would pick up and my pictures looked amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and walked me through two different looks and best options for my skin tone. I highly recommend Kathryn and will certainly use her again for other events. Already sent two of my BFFs her way and they were happy too :)

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Even though I’m a Top Pro here in Thumbtack I like to keep my price reasonable because I want everyone to be able to afford getting their makeup done at least once. I do this because I totally love doing it.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I begin by asking them how comfortable they are wearing makeup and how do they want to look and feel after their makeup session with me. I also ask them what color is the outfit they will be wearing. And most important what are their main skin concerns.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I obtained my certificate as an International Makeup Artist at a very prestigious Academy in New York City’s Fashion District.
