Fantastic people and very professional.

Michael and Jenny were awesome! They are easy to get along with and will make your experience very enjoyable. I hired both for my wedding on November 19th, 2023. My flower girls are under 10 and they handled them excellently. They included them and made them feel just as special as myself and my party did. They are very efficient and managed to finish everyone way before the wedding (my mom, my brother mother in law, grandma in law, maid of honor, two bridesmaids, two flower girls, and myself) (brother and mother in law only had hair done). My wedding was at 6pm, we planned to be done by 5:30, we started at 11am and finished at 4:30. I met Michael in WV for my trial, but had the wedding in Pittsburgh. I have rosacea and he taught me some tricks to help keep my flair ups at bay and was able to work with it the day of the wedding. I did not have a traditional wedding so I was happy that Michael had some unconventional colors to play with that worked wonderfully with my black dress and green veil. In WV, I can’t find anyone that is great with curly hair, but Jenny was awesome! I’m so thankful that I found them when I did because they made my day special.

It was almost almost a nightmare….

Michael turned my wedding day woes into a fairytale. Despite dress mishaps and missing attendants, Michael’s presence transformed everything. His warmth and talent made me feel like royalty, instilling a confidence I never knew I had. The airbrush makeup he crafted for me and the three bridesmaids who made it was flawless—absolutely stunning!

Michael wasn’t just a makeup artist; he was the shining star of my day, second only to my wonderful wife. His professionalism, warmth, and skill made all the difference. I’ve already recommended him to two friends eagerly awaiting their weddings next year! Can’t wait to work with him again in April! Thank you for everything!

Don't miss out call them now!

Michael from Blake Artistry is an absolute gem in the world of makeup. Our wedding day was a whirlwind of emotions, styles, and skin tones, and he navigated it all with sheer brilliance. His talent, adaptability, and genuine passion for his craft were beyond compare.

We had an incredibly diverse group with varying skin tones, styles, and skin types, and Michael didn't just meet our expectations; he exceeded them in every possible way. From very fair to very dark, from dry to oily skin, and from natural to dramatic styles, Michael was a magician who knew exactly how to bring out the best in each of us.

His ability to listen attentively to our desires while offering expert suggestions showcased his professionalism and mastery. Michael didn't just apply makeup; he painted confidence on our faces. His attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring that every stroke of his brush was purposeful and enhancing.

The true testament to Michael's skill came when my husband saw me. His tears of joy and the speechless expression on his face said it all – Michael had not just transformed my appearance but had captured the essence of our love and happiness in his art.

Michael's warmth and calming presence were a godsend on a day filled with nerves and excitement. He not only made us look stunning but also helped create an atmosphere of comfort and ease, making the entire experience unforgettable.

To say that we loved Michael's work is an understatement. He didn't just make us beautiful; he made us feel seen, confident, and utterly radiant. His talent is unmatched, and his dedication to his craft is truly awe-inspiring.

Thank you, Michael, from the depths of our hearts, for making our day more magical than we ever imagined. Blake Artistry is truly fortunate to have a talent like you

Love this vendor!

Michael made this whole experience very easy! I was really unsure about having help with my hair and my makeup for my wedding, now it is impossible to imagine not having Blake Artistry at my wedding.
I really felt heard. Michael asked a lot of questions about my skin, my wedding plans, my wedding dress, my normal makeup and my vision of my look for my wedding. He talked to me through every step of the process and explained why he was going what he was doing. When he showed me my look it was exactly what I wanted! It is like he could read my mind.
Jenny, took my inspiration photo and a half hour later my hair looked exactly like the photo. I looked like I had so much more hair than I really do. She had me laughing the entire time of the practice.
They were early to my wedding and made the party. They are both so much fun, and yet so professional. Everyone loved them and we all received so many compliments on our makeup and hair. My hair and makeup lasted all day, and the makeup lasted through all my tears. I didn't even have to retouch my lips in 16 hours!
I really hope that everyone chooses them. You won't regret it, and they won't break the bank.

Very Easy to Work With

Blake Artistry is the best. Michael was very responsive to all of my messages and answered all my questions within minutes of texting him.

He asked a lot of questions and I really felt like he got to know me, and what I wanted. He made sure I understood how makeup works with flash photography and my photos turned out great! Also, I really felt like myself on my wedding day, not a painted caricature of me. The makeup was so light, I forgot I was wearing it, and yet, my oily skin did not affect it.

He is so sweet. Everyone in my party loved Michael and his stylist Jenny is amazing. I would highly recommend them to anyone getting married that likes a natural look.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
