Flawless Make-up Artistry

Katherine Violette delivered a flawless makeup look for my recent event. Her professionalism and skill are truly impressive. I highly recommend her services for anyone seeking top-notch makeup artistry. I had compliments on my Smokey Eyes all night! Thanks again!

An absolute angel!

Katherine is AMAZING. All of my bridefolk just immediately fell in love with her artistry, her body positivity, and- most importantly- her kindness.
She was punctual, professional, communicative, fun, and compassionate!
One of my poor bridefolk fell SEVERELY ill the morning of the wedding. Katherine not only comforted her with the rest of us while my poor friend was hooked up to a hydrating emergency IV in our bridal suite; Katherine did my friend's makeup while she'd laid down to recover! I credit Katherine's kindness and flexibility in helping my friend not only relax so she could recover and feel well enough to party with us, but with also making my dearest friend look and feel as beautiful on the outside as she is on the inside.
I struggle with my appearance, but I felt like a queen hearing excited gasps and happy sobs walking down the aisle. My husband was absolutely beaming with pride and, more importantly, so was I. Katherine will transform you into an absolute queen.

Amazing - Best Experience!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Bluebird. Katherine was amazing - and made me feel like a princess. My bridal party felt fantastic, too.
She took the stress out of a crazy day and the entire process was fun and easy. I would recommend a million times over if you want to look and feel awesome for any occasion!

Amazing!!!

Katherine was amazing of my wedding day. She did my makeup, my mothers and maid of honor and we all loved how each of ours turned out. She is very friendly and easy to talk to. It was pretty humid out the day we got married. We had an outdoor ceremony and reception and my hair lasted most of the night, which is saying a lot because I have very thick and heavy hair. Would definitely recommend her to future brides :)

Stunning Work

Everything about Katherine was wonderful! She responded to me very quickly and was on time. She was so friendly and knew exactly how to glam me up without looking overdone. I wanted my makeup and hair to be done for a cousin’s wedding. I felt gorgeous and everyone said I looked stunning!! Both stayed gorgeous for hours, even though the ceremony was outside in 90 degrees plus heat. I highly recommend her, you will not regret it.

Katherine is my go to Makeup artist for Boudoir photography. She is quick unlike most makeup artists and does a beautiful job. I've used her for makeup over a dozen times in my studio and have been happy each time!

Katherine of Bluebird Brides is a favorite. Not only does she specialize in pinup style hair and make up (my personal favorite!), she has the the ability to create hair and make up looks which accentuate the best unique features of each client she works for. I've seen brides look absolutely themselves and radiantly beautiful under her skillful hands and vision. I would absolutely recommend Katherine to anyone without hesitation-- she's exudes a gentle, interesting and accepting vibe. At my last big birthday party, she did MY hair and make up, and stayed around to adjust my hair/look for one of my costume changes of the evening. It was a blast and I felt great!
