J.Lynn Bridal Hair Design	Lori's approach to makeup is classic and elegant. She creates truly beautiful looks. She is creative and will make your skin glow! You will love the end result. I highly recommend Makeup Artistry by Lori!
Vesic Photography	I worked with Lori at a fantastic wedding in Chevy Chase, MD. As a photographer, I always cover the girls getting ready and I have seen a lot of different makeup and hair artists. Lori not only does fantastic work, but she is very efficient, aware of time and schedule and very personable, fun and has a great personality. I had a great time with her at the wedding this past September (2009) and would highly recommend her services to anyone. Hooman, Vesic Photography
Mid-South Wedding & Event Planners'	To the bridal community it is hard to find vendors who will supply you with excellent customer service and quality products. Lori has professional ethics and believes in what she is doing. She is eager and dedicated to provide you with that special attention that each bride deserves. Lori believes that each bride has individual needs and will go the extra mile to make sure you are satisfied with the end result. I pride myself in making sure that my brides are being connected with the best vendors in the industry. I give you Lori, the ultimate in Makeup Artistry!
*AWARD WINNING~UP DO SPECIALIST*	Lori is a fabulous makeup artist. Definitely the most talented I have seen in this area. She specializes in all skin textures so you know you will look like a million bucks on your big day :) I recommend Lori to all my brides for makeup because I know that they will look and feel like a queen on their big day.
Creative Edge Floral Design	If you want the perfect face on your wedding day, choose Lori. She's professional, talented and a very nice person. She does an excellent job and I will choose her the next time I need to look my best.
Green with Envy Events	Lori is such a pleasure to work with! You can see from her photos that her work is amazing but for me it was her connection with the bride that was impressive. Lori listened to the bride as she described what she had envisioned for her special day and then brought it to reality through her expertise and artistry. Not once, but twice! The trial run was perfect and Lori replicated the look completely for the wedding day. Her experience with bridal makeup was evident both on the wedding day and especially in the wedding photography. Lori arrived early and was always on schedule, making my job as a coordinator easier. She is so easy to talk to and work with I will refer her to all of my brides!
Events By Excellence	I can't stress this enough that FIRST impressions are lasting ones and Lori is a EXCELLENT example! I HIGHLY recommend Lori just in speaking with her I was comfortable this is VERY important for a bride who's entrusting their most memorable face to a person they hardly know. Lori continue to be the people person you are much continued success to you. If and when I ever have a bride in your area you'll be the first I call!

Question:  How long does it normaly take to apply bridal Makeup.?  Answer: approx 45 min to 1 hour if lashes are applied. bridesmaids and other bridal party approx 25-30 min.


Question: Are you willing to stay for the photo session with the photographer for touchups?  Answer: yes  at  an hourly rate.

Safety/Sanitary: Question:  How do you protect clients from infections and so forth.?
Answer: I use as many disposable items as possible especially in large bridal parties..such as disposable sponges/disposable mascara wands/disposable lip brushes. But i also carry Brush Cleaner along/hand sanitizer ect.

Question: are you willing to take Add-ons (last minute) bridal members who decide to have makeup.?
Answer- Yes i gladly accomodate addons if time permits.

Question: Do you have a minimum that you charge for on location weddings/events?
Answer:  Yes, I do. to travel to your venue for your wedding or event i charge a minimum of $225. which is usually not a problem because the bride and one brides maid combined come to that total.




 

First and foremost i  want to say Congrats! to you and your Groom as well, and i am so glad you chose to have a pro do your makeup! in years to come those photos will really show your true beauty in a way that just cant compare to having a friend or relative try to do  bridal makeup even with good intentions it hardly ever works out in photos and most brides regret not having speant the extra time and money to have a pro do the makeup not to mention hair on the wedding day!!! takes alot of stress off of you and everyone else and its nice to be pampered!!!!

Tip# 1- Bring a photo of your fav makeup styles to your makeup trial.

Tip#2- Carry your lip color(gloss with a color works best) and some blotting tissues or a translucent powder compact on wedding day for touchup.

Tip#3-Since you are more than likely hiring a pro photographer have them take photos of your hair/MU prep time this makes for great photos to cherish of you and family/friends/bridal party getting all beautified :)

Tip#4-Have the entire bridal party have pro hair and makeup done! Its a gift to them and yourself! pics will prove ! everyone will look camera ready!

Tip#5- Get plenty of sleep, Drink plenty of Water, have a pedi/mani a few days before the wedding and relax!!!
if you are a winter bride-dont forget to moisturize..both face and lips! if you are a summer bride use a lighter moisturizer and still moisturize lips..
