Fran is an absolute joy to work with. She’s super responsive, and made my vision come true. I was so impressed by her time management, she arrived on time and we got stared in no time. I was able to finish hair and makeup without feeling rushed because she made it seem so easy. We were all having fun. I loved the calm but industrious energy that Fran brought to my wedding day. I would definitely work with her again and recommend her to my best friends.

Fran did wonderful job on my bridal makeup and my mom's too!
She was flexible when I needed to adjust and was just such good energy during the getting ready!
Also we finished at maybe 1pm and my face lasted all the way through my afterparty and portraits in the snow. 🙌

This makeup artist was phenomenal for my graduation brunch! She was super fun and easy to talk to — it felt like I’d known her forever. She nailed exactly the look I wanted, and her attention to detail plus thoughtful suggestions took it to a whole new level. The result was flawless, long-lasting, and made me feel incredibly confident and absolutely stunning! I’ll absolutely be booking her for all future events!

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I make sure to educate myself through seminars with successful makeup artists that I admire.
