Victoria is absolutely the best stylist you could ever have for any occasion. She is so talented, and an absolute joy to work with. She did my hair and makeup and my mom's hair and makeup for my wedding. Throughout the entire process, she was just so fantastic to work with, from the very first email to the wedding day itself! Victoria was recommended to us by our photographer (Genevieve Leiper), and in addition to Victoria's incredible styling skills, it was a bonus that she worked so well with Genevieve to make the photos turn out even better. For background, neither my mom or myself typically wear a lot of makeup, and Victoria did a masterful job making us look and feel beautiful with minimal, natural-looking makeup. On the wedding day, Victoria also stayed with us throughout the photos (which we took before the ceremony) as we drove around to a few locations, and then changed my hair to an updo before the ceremony/reception. With a lunch reception, that meant starting hair and makeup just after 5 a.m., and the early start time did not phase her at all! When our timeline shifted a few weeks before the wedding day, she kindly agreed to arrive half an hour earlier than we had discussed, and she was so flexible and wonderful in the entire planning process and on the day of. While we were taking photos, she went above and beyond to help hold my bouquet during adjustments or fix my dress and veil. And I truly can't describe what an amazing job she did on our hair and makeup. She made me feel like an incredibly beautiful bride (and she made my mom feel like an absolutely gorgeous mother of the bride), and I am so grateful that she was my wedding day stylist. I can't possibly recommend her highly enough! She is a great person and a fantastic professional stylist, and you would be lucky to have her on your wedding day team of experts.

Victoria did an amazing job for my engagement photo shoot and wedding! She did hair and makeup for both. Since she works closely with my photographer (Genevieve Leiper), she knew exactly what would look good in photos. At my wedding hair/makeup trial, she carefully planned how my hair would look knowing I would have a hair accessory. The day of my wedding, I looked AMAZING. She made me (and my bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law) feel comfortable and relaxed at her studio while she did our hair and makeup.
I love that Victoria respected what I (and the other girls) wanted and what we felt comfortable with. Some of the girls wanted big, voluminous hair and dramatic makeup while others wanted something more subtle. Victoria made sure that everyone was happy and felt beautiful. I recommend Victoria Stiles (and A Little Wedding Studio in Leesburg, VA) to anyone and everyone! If you pick vendors who work well together, your wedding will be that much more perfect. I had the wedding of my dreams and I could not be more pleased with Victoria's work. I am sad that I won't be able to work with her (or the other vendors at the studio) anymore but I will be sure to contact her if I need any other professional hair or makeup in the future.

I will keep this short: Simply use Victoria for your wedding makeup. She is amazing. Talented, professional, flexible, and listens to feedback. My makeup lasted and lasted. We had a very ethnically diverse group of people that she was doing hair and make up for and she was able to take care of each person perfectly. Her price is so reasonable for the outstanding quality of her work.

Are you interested?

Victoria is awesome. She did a great job making someone who wears very little makeup look glamorous and natural at the same time. As someone who even considered doing my own makeup, I can confidently say that having Victoria do our hair and makeup was 100% worth it.

Working with her was super easy. She responds to emails quickly and is really fun to be around. She gives military discounts as well as a discount for paying upfront, which added up to be a lot of savings for me. There were a lot of people in my wedding party, so she brought another stylist (also named Victoria) who was also wonderful. I would definitely recommend them both!

I was so happy that I chose Victoria for my wedding hair and makeup for many, many reasons. First, she is extremely talented. I felt so beautiful, and she was able to exceed my expectations. She did my bridesmaids' hair as well, and I could tell that they were also very happy with the outcome. Second, she is a pleasure to work with. Victoria was very responsive to all of my emails. I worried about asking her "silly" questions, but she never seemed to mind at all. She even answered questions about my bridesmaids' plan for their hair. I made a small change to my hair after my hair trial, and she was very flexible and simply wanted me to be happy, rather than make things easier for herself. Victoria is also a very kind person, and she was a very calming presence on my wedding day. I hope to have a reason to use her services again in the future!

Victoria is amazing! She made me look beautiful, but in a natural way. She is amazingly talented - after your trial she thinks about the ways to improve the look. It's so impressive. She's fun too, especially for someone who regularly styles important people. If you can get on her schedule, I highly recommend her!!!!!

I have never felt and looked so beautiful in all my life! Victoria was fantastic and fun to work with. All the girls’ hair and makeup were done to perfection. She even stepped up to help out when my Mother In Law had a hair disaster/emergency right before the Wedding. Anyone who has looked at our pictures has said how fantastic we looked – like we were off the pages of a magazine – and that would not have happened if Victoria had not been there!

I am extremely picky about my hair and makeup and went through 5 trials before choosing Victoria. She exceeded my expectations with her professionalism and expertise. I felt absolutely beautiful and my hair and makeup lated through the night even with me dancing the entire night. She also did a fantastic job on the Moms and they looked gorgeous. If you want the best, Victoria is it! Don't waste time or money on anyone else, you will not regret it!

I hired Victoria to do make-up and hair for myself (bride) and 2 sisters (bridesmaids) on the morning of my wedding. It is wonderful to have someone come to you for these services. She showed up on time and with a great attitude. All of us were extremely happy with our hair and make-up. I was not an easy bride to work with, however, Victoria remained calm, kind and professional during the whole process. There is a reason she gets great reviews, she is the best around! I would highly recommend her to friends and family.

Lovely, excellent results, easy to work with, professional, flexible, all the above would describe my working relationship with Victoria Stiles. As a ferocious dragon mom, I put Victoria through her paces during the practice. Her gentle corrections and points regarding make up for the camera were excellent. Her assistant on the day of was simply superb. (She did me and Well she did.) But this is about my daughter, the exhausted resident who looked so elegant and calm-ethereal, but then I'm her mom. Under Victoria's knowing touch, Ellie was transformed into the exquisite bride whose picture revealed little of the stress and lack of sleep leading up to the wedding.

Victoria is fantastic! I originally met with her for a hair and makeup trial back in the Spring, and liked her right away. she was easy to work with and fun to talk to! After a few months, I had a completely different look in mind, and she did a follow-up trial with me to try out the new look. She completely got my vision, and executed it perfectly!

The day of the wedding, Victoria came to our hotel suite and did Hair for both of my sisters, my Mom, my Aunt, and myself. She also did makeup for my Mom, one of my sisters, and myself. She spent time and great attention to detail for every single one of us and made us look like movie stars! My Aunt was an unexpected addition, but Victoria squeezed her in and we managed to stay on time and every single one of us was thrilled with the outcome.

We all were given compliments all night, and felt wonderful. Victoria completely gave me the look I imagined for myself, and beautified the whole family! She is truly talented, and lovely to work with!

Victoria did an absolutely amazing job "beautifying" me and my mother for my wedding, and I would enthusiastically recommend her to any friends getting married in the DC area. First and foremost, Victoria did a fantastic job--my makeup was flawless and my hair was superbly ornate and gorgeous. Victoria is so good at her job that I didn't even really have to explain to her what I wanted, and somehow-voila!-my hair and makeup were perfect and exactly what I wanted. My mom also could not stop raving about how much she loved her look. Second, Victoria is incredibly professional. We had a Sunday brunch wedding which required her to arrive at our hotel around 6:30/7 am (to do makeup for only me and my mom), and she arrived early and with a smile on her face. Third, Victoria is personable and a pleasure to spend time with. Somehow I felt like I was just hanging out with an old friend while she was doing my hair and makeup, which really calmed my pre-wedding jitters! I would highly, highly recommend Victoria.

I contacted Victoria after I was unhappy with a previous trial run and explained to her everything I wanted for my hair and makeup. When I visited her for my trial I was hesitant because of my first experience with someone else but ended up loving her. Victoria was great, she listened to exactly what I wanted and gave her input when appropriate. I had 7 bridesmaids, myself, MIL, and mother doing a combination of hair and makeup. Victoria and her associate were amazing the day of. They were at the venue on time and we finished in plenty of time, no rushing around. It was a stress free great experience. They both did makeup from very light and natural to dramatic. The hair ranged from down and romantic to up and intricate. Any future brides reading this review I highly recommend her for any look you're going for, she is definitely capable.

Victoria did Hair & Make-up for my mom, sister, me, and the flower girls in our wedding. She is fantastic! The trial with her was useful and fun, and gave me a great sense of what I would look like on my wedding day. The day of, she arrived early, finished right on time, and did a fabulous job with our hair and make-up. She has a way of making you look flawless yet still yourself, and that comes across in the photographs. Highly recommend her for a wedding in DC or Baltimore!

I cannot say enough about Victoria!!! She was amazing!! My stylist had cut my hair too short, so I worried that an up-do wouldn't be possible. Victoria pulled a rabbit out of the hat and gave me hair that all my friends have envied. And the make-up job was flawless! She's a must have for any important occassion! Karen

Love Love Love Victoria! I used Victoria for my wedding day hair and makeup for myself, mother of the bride and maid of honor. She did absolutely amazing work even better than the trial day which is always great to know if your the bride. Victoria is not only to the point with what she knows and how to do it but you can trust that she will make you look beautiful without making you look like a drag queen. Victoria truly loves what she does and she amazing at it. The best part of her services is that she brings music to spice it up a bit especially for us people who are not early risers and forgot their ipods. =) I will also have to note that she brings the most intense chair for you to sit in while she does your makeup. Enjoy it because she is a master at work. Thank you Victoria for making me feel beautiful for my wedding day! I will see you soon I'm sure.

Victoria Stiles is great! I had no idea what I wanted in terms of makeup and hair for my wedding, but Victoria talked to me about my style and gave me several ideas and recommendations. I did a trial with her before my wedding because I was really unsure about using extensions, but she made them blend in perfectly and convinced me that it would be a great look. And it was! I wish I could make my hair look like that every day! I worked with Victoria for my engagement photos as well and she was able to do great makeup and hair for both the more casual engagement photos and the formal wedding day look. She came to our hotel to do hair and makeup for the wedding party the day of the wedding, and I enjoyed having her there. She was calm, fun, and got along well with everyone.

Victoria is awesome! She is easy to work and extremely knowledgeable in her field. I didn't want to spend my wedding day in DC traffic, so I knew as soon as I got engaged I wanted someone to do hair and makeup to come to our venue. She did hair and make up for me, my mom and two bridesmaids (all with different hair types and coloring) without a problem. I didn't feel or look like a had a lot of makeup on, I looked like myself.

I hired Victoria and her assistant to do the hair and make-up for me and my bridesmaids in the early morning hours before my 11:30 AM wedding at the Fort Myer Old Post Chapel in Arlington, VA and -- hand's down -- that was one of the absolute best wedding-planning decisions I ever made. In addition to being extremely talented and professional, Victoria and her assistant were an absolute delight to work with, and they made our morning so enjoyable. They showed up to my hotel room exactly when they said they would (5:45 AM) and in the hours leading up to my wedding, they worked their beauty magic on all of us, including my two flower girls. I'm pretty fussy and particular when it comes to my hair and make-up, but I completely trusted Victoria and turned myself over to her and I am SO glad I did. When I walked down the aisle with my dear Dad, I felt radiant, beautiful, happy and supremely confident -- everything you want to be on your wedding day -- and all of that was due to Victoria. And I love what she did with my hair! We haven't yet seen our professional photos, but in all of the other photos that we've seen so far, my hair looked beautiful from every angle and amazingly, it stayed in place all day. On your wedding day, you don't want to take any chances, and believe me when I say that Victoria is worth it. I would give her 100 stars if I could, but this site limits me to 5!

Victoria did an amazing job on me and our moms on our wedding day! Our mothers looked like models right out of a wedding magazine! Everyone looked like themselves, natural and enhanced, but also beautifully photogenic! As the bride, I felt beautiful that day. My hair and makeup were exactly as I imagined, which Victoria helped to figure out since I had no idea going into it. She also did my makeup for our engagement pics, and I could not have been happier! You get what you pay for - a real professional with genuine talent.

My daughter visited Victoria before her engagement photography session. Victoria made her look like a queen: her hair was gorgeous and her makeup perfect. My daughter, the maid of honor, and I then visited her for a trial before the wedding. Victoria put on this wonderful, relaxing music. She made it so much fun for the three of us. On the day of the wedding, Victoria brought another hairstylist and makeup artist as I was treating the maid of honor, 7 bridesmaids, junior bridesmaid, me, my daughter and the flower girl to makeup and hair. They set up in our kitchen and went right to work. They timed it to make sure we were all ready when the photographer and cars came to pick us up. Victoria put on her wonderful music. She and the other stylists were fun, relaxing and made us all laugh. More importantly, they made each of us feel like we were the most beautiful women in the world. And the flower girl- so incredibly cute. The makeup and hair stood the test of time and heat and lasted all through the ceremony, pictures, cocktails, dinner and reception with a lot of dancing. All of us received multiple compliments. We all felt like queens, particularly my daughter, who was, in my eyes, and those of our neighbors and friends, the most exquisite bride we have ever seen. Thank you to Victoria and her team for their part in a perfect day.

Victoria and her assistant were outstanding to work with. I had a large bridal party (8!) and 3 mothers to beautify on the big day. They were flexible with changes in services at the last minute and went with the flow. Technically, they were right on point (which I expected as I chose Victoria based on her NYC fashion week experience...) and delivered what each woman requested. Both were professional and fun as well! Above all, I felt in great hands as the Bride and looked gorgeous after Victoria's styling to boot! I felt that she listened to what I wanted and the final product was as imagined! THANKS LADIES!! Definitely would recommend Victoria to any other brides-to-be!! :-)

Victoria Stiles was a joy to work with. She is a gifted make up artist and made each one of us look fabulous in person and more importantly for the camera. Her up do was beautiful and I can honestly say the hairdo looked as perfect at the end of the night as it did in the beginning. All seven women (in our wedding party) were so happy with her and her assistant's services. They were low key and flexible and we enjoyed sharing the day with them. I would recommend her for any occasion and I hope I have an opportunity to have her make me look my best self some time in the near future!

Victoria is incredible and I am so lucky to have found her! She came doubly recommended by both my photographer and wedding planner. She did the makeup for me, the sisters of the bride/groom and the mothers of the bride/groom making us all look like better versions of ourselves. She is friendly and sweet and even offered up suggestions to my bridesmaids who were quizzing her on her techniques and flawless results. My makeup held ALL day and night through some intense dance floor cardio and a complete tear jerker of a father of the bride speech. Having recently seen our pictures, I can confidently say that I am 100% satisfied with how I looked on my big day and I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Victoria was amazing! She did my hair/makeup as well as my Bm's hair/makeup& my mom's makeup. Everyone looked so elegant & pretty. I had a crystal headband I wanted to use & she made the hairstyle I wanted look so awesome! My hair & makeup lasted all day. I was worried my makeup would come off but it stayed in place all day. I will definately use her again if I ever need these services. She is very personable & accomodating. Love her! :)

Amazing, is the only word for what Victoria does. She is extremely responsive and really listened to me on what I wanted to look like for the day, but then made it way better! On the day of, she was great to deal with, very dependable and everyone loved their looks! She is worth every penny...my makeup did not wear off at all, and I barely needed to touch up which was nice b/c I could just have fun and all the pictures still look beautiful that I've seen thus far. I am so thankful I had her as part of our wedding team, everything was breathtaking and I couldn't have imagined looking any better on the day of, her work is stunning!

I was lucky enough to meet Victoria the night that I got engaged. It was destiny!

A few months after my engagement, I scheduled a trial run with Victoria. She went through my entire "day of" wedding look and we even spent some time tweaking it a little bit to get the perfect look. It was really fun and I felt very comfortable. I still felt that I looked natural, but with a little bit of pop.

On my wedding day, Victoria had a lot of people to go through. She really took her time with everyone and gave all the women personal attention. Some got smokey eyes, and other got some natural glamour. In the end, they all looked beautiful and were in love with their makeup. She definitely has some fans in my wedding party.

I got my makeup done towards the end so that mine was fresh. We revisited the picture from my trial and were going for the same look. Between my skin looking perfect, and my eyes popping...everything was perfect. I left with my lip gloss in hand and ready to have the best night of my life.

My makeup stayed on the entire night. Even with some tears during the ceremony and speeches; I got to the end of the night looking flawless. Victoria does amazing work and I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

I wanted a natural look that would photograph well, and that's exactly what I got. She did a great job with my mother's, mother-in-law's, and MOH's make-up as well. We had a last minute change in our timeline and had to move up the make-up time by two hours. Victoria was extremely accomodating in adjusting her arrival time. It's apparent that she loves what she does, and she's open to brides who have a clear idea of what they want or brides who are looking for suggestions on their make-up for the wedding day.

I was planning my wedding from overseas and I needed a makeup artist who was easy to work with and someone I could trust. Victoria fullfilled both those requests and then some. The trial was less than a week before the wedding and the original look I had requested, in the end, wasn't really me. The day of the wedding Victoria showed up, created an entirely new WONDERFUL look and I was over the moon happy. All the bridesmaids were beautiful and the makeup stayed put all day long. Victoria was a joy to work and her ability to handle the stress of a wedding day are reasons why I would hightly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional makeup artist.

Victoria was wonderful to work with. I'm not the kind of girl that knows a whole lot about make-up but Victoria helped make me feel totally comfortable. At my trial, she really listened to what I wanted and was willing to try a couple different things until I was totally happy. I was impressed not only with her knowledge and talent, but also with how open and friendly she was. On the day of my wedding I was really concerned about being able to get everything done in a short amount of time, but I really shouldn't have worried at all. Victoria was so calm as she expertly got me, my 4 bridesmaids and both mothers ready with time to spare. She was so easy to work with and everyone was very impressed with the results!

Victoria is an amazing makeup artist. In addition to being professional, punctual and comforting on the day of, her work is top notch. I'm a low-maintenance when it comes to make up and so one of the most stressful aspects of my wedding planning was the make up as many artists I have experienced either made me look like a drag queen or failed to listen to what I wanted. Victoria listened to exactly the look I was looking for and relieved all of my make-up worries! I was so happy with her ability make me look like myself, but also "done" enough for an evening wedding. I was so happy with Victoria, that she is doing my make up again for my "trash the dress" session post-wedding!

Victoria is AMAZING. She is incredibly talented, friendly, creative, and professional. I would add more positive adjectives, but I think that would take up too much space. She made me and my bridesmaids look beautiful on my wedding day, and her relaxed and friendly manner made her such a pleasure to work with. If you're looking for someone to do your makeup for your wedding, look no further. Seriously, just call her right this minute. You won't regret it!

Victoria did an amazing job on the makeup for my wedding! She did my makeup, my moms, my sister in laws and my maid of honors, and did a fabulous job on all of us! She was on time, did a great job on each of our makeup and we even finished earlier than I had thought which was great:) I definitely highly recommend Victoria if you are looking for a makeup artist for your wedding that will travel to your hotel!

Oh my God she is so awesome! She just knows exactly what to do just trust her. I have never had so many compliments in my life. I know, I know it is my wedding but if you have sisters you know that no matter what they tell you the truth. Also I can look in the mirror too. She does not put too much makeup on she creates a very natural and classic look. I cannot wait to get my pictures back. You keep looking at yourself b/c it just looks so good. I highly recommend her. She is also a very nice and trustworthy person. She will listen to what you say and she will not rush on through she takes her time to make sure your makeup is perfection. She is a natural at what she does. If you want to look as beautiful as a bride on the cover of a bridal magazine you should use her. I guarantee you will have no regrets and I am not an easy customer. I found her b/c I was dissatisfied with the original makeup artist I had hired. At first I was frantic looking for another makeup artist but it turned out to be a great thing b/c I found Victoria!

Victoria Stiles is amazing at highlighting and emphasizing a woman's beauty. I was extremely lucky to have been able to hire Vicki for my wedding. She considered the style of our wedding, my dress, and my hair, and created a look for me that was beautiful, classic, and timeless. I am constantly recommending Vicki to other-bride's to-be.

Victoria provided me and my bridesmaids with make-up on my wedding day. I could not have asked for better service, as she accommodated every need. She went above and beyond what she was originally scheduled to do and made us all look picture perfect.

I have received so many compliments about the pictures from my wedding day and how my make up still looked fresh at the end of the night. I will use Victoria's services again and I will definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a make-up artist.

Victoria is the best make-up artist around! She completely and effortlessly transformed me into a beautiful, glowing bride without making me look overdone. She is master of her trade and knows precisely how to highlight your features in a way that make you look your very best. She also updates her makeup frequently so your look is always fresh (both in style and quality). I wish I had her to do my make-up everyday!

Victoria was fabulous! Very professional and responsive, but also very friendly and easy to work with. Including myself there were 6 of us and she did a beautiful job for everyone! We all looked like ourselves and was able to tone up and down for those who wanted more natural coloring or more of a glam look. The make up didn't feel heavy at all but lasted the entire day! I would recommend Victoria to anyone who wants to look their absolute best!

Victoria was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is very professional, yet also put me completely at ease. I felt like one of my friends had dropped by for coffee and just happened to bring along her makup kit. The makeup looked fantastic-not too much in person, but also showed up in the pictures. Victoria wasn't offended at all when I asked the bridesmaids opinions (I don't usually wear much makeup). She even convinced me to add false eyelashes and my eyes look amazing in the pictures. I didn't touch up my makeup the entire night (even though Victoria gave me lipstick and liner) and it still looked perfect at the end of the day. Victoria also did three of the bridesmaids' makeup and was wonderful about answering questions and helping everyone relax. I would definitely recommend her!

Victoria did a beautiful job on the make up for my wedding. The makeup really lasted all day long. Her skilled showed not only in the application, but in selecting just the right look, not only for me, but also for my maid of honor and my mother. We all felt transformed, not in an artificial way, but in a bring out the best way. It added a lot to the enjoyment of the day.

Victoria did my trial makeup for a portrait sitting, so I have those wonderful pictures to remember her work by. Then on my wedding day, she suggested false eyelashes. I never dreamed of wearing false eyelashes, so I was a bit skeptical, but I knew we could just remove them if I didn't like the look. What's not to like? She had me looking so great, I couldn't believe it was me when I looked in the mirror. My subtly glamorous look gave me such an ego boost on an already dream-like day.

I give Victoria my highest recommendation. You will not be disappointed.

Victoria travelled to my hotel room the day of the wedding. Having done a trial with her before the big day, I knew I was in good hands. She was incredible, and made myself and my bridesmaids look stunning! I came to her with just an idea, and warned her that I don't wear makeup on a daily basis. She knew just what I was going for, and made me feel very natural with a simple "clean bride" look. The photos look great, and I felt and looked very elegant! I highly, highly recommend her, she's a true professional and fantastic at what she does! :)

Victoria is a diva. She worked at MAC for over 8 years and decided to go out on her own. I wanted an artist that used MAC because that is all I use. She was so easy going, has amazing talent and I totally loved the soft, elegant look she gave me. I told her I want her to do my make up everyday! She also comes to you on site which was so nice. My bridesmaids had their make-up done too. I would highly recommend hiring a make-up artists because your make-up will just pop better in photos. If I did my make-up myself, I don?t think the effect would have been as great. Highly recommend her. I will work with her again for social engagements.

I had searched and searched to find the right person to do my wedding make up. Because it was such a special occassion I wanted someone who would make me look flawless and very natural. I ran into Victoria's website and I was amazed by her work. I decided to contact her and we did a make up trial, which I would highly recommend! I usually don't like wearing a lot of make up so I was a little scared that I wouldn't look like myself but someone else, but Victoria did such a wonderful, she made me love the way I looked with make up! She did a wonderful job and I knew then that she would be the perfect person to do my make up. The day of my wedding she was on time and very helpful to all my guests and specially me. I was extremely satisfied with the way my make up looked, not only it looked wonderful in person but looked amazing on my wedding photos! I had so many compliments the day of my wedding and even people who look at wedding photos and could not make it to the wedding say my make up was flawless and the best they have ever seen around. I can not say enough good things about Victoria and her work.

Sincerely,
Giovanna Rossi (Casas)

Victoria's work speaks to her exceptional talent. She worked with me when last minute I changed how I wanted my hair done and my make up looked great in person but especially in the pictures that will last a lifetime.
She is extremely professional and knowledgable even as my 7 bridemaids and I asked her tons of hair/make-up questions! She made all the girls feel as if they were as much of a priority as the bride and they really appreciated it.

I highly recommend Victoria for any event where you want to look your absolute best!

Victoria was one of the best vendors that I worked with for my wedding. She was very responsive to my e-mails and phone calls, and was so personable I felt like I was working with a friend that I've known for years. She did make-up for 8 people in my wedding and I thought everyone looked great. I would recommend Beautiful by Victoria to other DC area brides looking to be made beautiful for their weddings.

Victoria is truely masterful! I loved everything about my hair and make up on my big day! It's true that you get what you pay for, her services are definitely not cheap, but I never felt so beautiful than on my wedding day! Victoria listened to what I wanted even though when I went for my trial I really didn't know what that was yet, but we played with different options until we found what I didn't even know I was going to love! When she came to my wedding venue and I asked for a slight change in the hair we had decided on in the trial she didn't mind at all and again I was so pleased with the outcome. Thanks Victoria!!!

Victoria is definately one of my favorite wedding vendors! I booked her for a trial, my engagement shoot, and wedding day. She did an amazing job each and every time. She actually listens to what you want and deliver. Victoria is a very consistent in her work and a professional. She was very patient and flexible when I had to reschedule my engagement shoot 3 times due to the rain. She also did great hair for my engagement shoot! I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thanks for making my day special Victoria!!!

Hi Victoria, I wanted to thank you for a great job you did on my make up for my engagement, bridal pictures and for my wedding day. I was thrilled with the way my make up turned out.
