Fantastic experience

Kiersta was enjoyable to work with. She made me look glamorous and listened to my desire for a light and fresh look. She spent 3 hours on the trial run and was able to repeat the look in less than 1.5 hours for the wedding. She is personable and fun to talk to.. I highly recommend her services.

Kiersta is the best!

We had such a great experience with Kiersta and Artistry by K. I struggled with deciding what I wanted do with my hair and makeup, and Kiersta gave some amazing suggestions and worked with me to create the perfect look! I was skeptical about airbrush makeup, since my skin tends to run dry, but she has made me into an airbrush believer!
From the initial phone call, to the trial run, to wedding day, Kiersta was helpful, responsive, and encouraging. She is the consummate artistic beauty professional while still being friendly and easy to talk to. If you want to look like a princess, she will help you look like a princess. If you want to look like a queen, she will help you look like a queen. I would 1000% recommend contacting her for whatever look you're going for. I'm reasonably sure that she is secretly a wizard.

Absolutely Amazing!

Kiersta is so incredible at what she does! She was so easy to work with and made me feel like we had been friends forever. My hair and makeup were flawless for wedding. I received so many compliments on my makeup and I was/am so quick to give her a shout out because she deserves it!

Wonderful!

his girl right here, a miracle worker. She came through in a pinch when our session was postponed due to the tropical storm and my previous hair and makeup ended up being booked on our rescheduled date. I felt even more beautiful than I did on my wedding day! We talked the entire time and it was so great to get to know her!

Loved my hair and makeup on my wedding day

I am someone who doesnt wear too much make up but I knew I wanted something simple and stunning on my wedding day. Kiersta did such an amazing job walking me through the process and making me feel comfortable the whole time. My photos turned out incredible because of her makeup, and my hair was flawless from the time she finished it to the time we returned from the afterparty. Plus, I got compliments on my hair and makeup all night long! I looked so beautiful my dog barely recognized me LOL
Thank you for everything K!!!

Kiersta was amazing/friendly/loving and so much more!

I am so happy that I decided on Kiersta to be a part of my big day. First of all, she does it all...hair & make-up...and she is good at what she does. My favorite thing about Kiersta is that she does what you want/need with no questions asked. Not to mention, she does a trial hair and make-up, which is awesome because she gets to know what you do and do not like before your big day. She truly knows how to make a girl feel special on their big day. Kiersta is very kind, friendly, and enjoyable to be around. The morning of my wedding, she arrived on time, matched my tone (which is pretty relaxed), did not make us feel rushed, and genuinely related and conversed with me, my family, and my bridal party. The room was full of so much warmth, love, laughter, and talent for sure. I 100% recommend Kiersta as your make-up and hair artist, and I definitely plan on working with her again in the future (because I loved my make-up so much and she is absolutely awesome).

Genuine, Fun, Brilliant, Amazing!

Kiersta is AMAZING! She has been very responsive from the first time I contacted her which is so helpful when you are planning a wedding and trying to coordinate a million things. I had my first session with her for hair and makeup for my engagement shoot and she did a beautiful job! She read my mind and did my makeup and my hair exactly like I envisioned! I had a runny nose all day from allergies and it was really windy outside and my hair and makeup lasted from 9am until our 5pm photo shoot.
She was so much fun to work with and I am so excited for her to be there on my wedding day! I highly recommend Kiersta!

100% Recommend

Kiersta is perfect for weddings! Not only did I personally want to just keep hanging out with her during my bridal makeup trial AND on the day of my wedding, but she is an incredible professional make-up artist. Her work is flawless and I couldn't have asked for a better artist to give me a natural look on my wedding day. I'm very simple when it comes to my makeup routine but she completely nailed the look I was going for. She also did my mom's makeup and 5 bridesmaids along with her assistant and both of them did phenomenal work on all types of skin, various tones and all ages!! She was so flexible, traveled to my venue, refunded me when one of my bridesmaids dropped out, and was super responsive during the entire planning process!

I am not a big make up person, and I wanted a super clean and minimal make for my wedding, artistry by k did just that! She also did my entire bridal party beautifully! She was understanding, helpful, and made my day that much better!
