Wedding Preparations 5.16.20

I knew right way I wanted to work with Kristine...but what I didn't know was what a true blessing she was going to be to work with. Her love for what she does is refreshing and I look forward to working with her the next 10 months as we prepare for our big day:) Thank you Kristine for being wonderful, you truly are an amazing person with so much talent.

Intuitive and patient

I’m an introvert who likes to ask questions, so I love learning what I can but I also enjoy sitting quietly sometimes too. Kristine is amazing at reading when I just need to sit and she’s always great at sharing her knowledge when I ask. Her patience is always appreciated and her work is incredible. She NEVER FAILS ago make me feel beautiful, inside AND out.

I’ve been working with Kristine professionally and personally for almost 10 years. She is a wonderful person inside and out!

I’ve used her for numerous photo sessions and weddings. And also my own personal makeup and skin services. I highly recommend her!

The best in the Business!!

Kristine is a phenomenal !!! From the first point of contact with Kristine, I was extremely impressed with and her attention to detail, and I am a person who is very big on detail!
She was not only interested in doing my makeup for the wedding day, but also about my skin, colors and products that would work with my skin, and about how I wanted to look and feel for the big day.
She is such a sweet and genuine person and that shines through the moment you speak to her! Then when we met, I was blown away by how much she cares for her clients. I felt so pampered!
At our trial I gave her zero guidance as to color and style of the makeup I desired. She created my look on only a few words I gave her about how I wanted to look and feel that day and she nailed it!!! Now that is true talent!!
On the day of the wedding, I was so at ease knowing she would make me feel comfortable and beautiful.
Of course she did not disappoint, my makeup was flawless!! I got so many compliments at the wedding. If you are looking for a makeup artist for your wedding day, who will make you look and feel like amazing , hurry up and book Kristine!!!

Best make up artist!

Words cannot describe how amazing and helpful Kristine is! Kristine went above and beyond her duties and is literally the reason my morning ran smoothly! She made my wedding day extra special by allowing us to use her salon space to get ready! It is the cutest salon and made my wedding day photos awesome by all the props and amazing details she has in her studio! She was so much help from day one in my trial! She had so many creative ideas and helped me think of details I would of never thought about to make sure everyone was comfortable! She set up the studio and had everything ready and made us feel like we were at home! My bridesmaids said it was the best make up and wedding day prep experience they have ever had! My look was AMAZING and my make up lasted all day, even through the tears! I have never had so many comments on my look! Everyone loved my soft but powerful bridal look! She knows how to make the features pop! I loved the look I had and I could not have been more happy with my overall experience!! I give Kristine 20/10 stars!!!

Exceptional!

Y'all, Kristine is one of my favorite people on the planet and she has such a talent for making people feel comfortable, appreciated and beautiful! Not only is she talented with a makeup brush, but she can also give the BEST facial treatments imaginable. I've worked with Kristine for my engagement photo makeup and she was amazing enough to work with me again for my wedding day and doll up 6 other ladies in my bridal party! She really knows how to work with colors, tones and shapes that best match your skin tone and structure. The thing I appreciate the most is that she really listens and will take the time to understand your vision and magnify it to give you the best look and version of yourself without changing you. In regards to her facial treatments, I really appreciate that the session time is focused on what your skin needs and how much work she feels your skin needs applied. She's really good at communicating what she is applying during your treatment and communicating when she will apply something without changing the tempo of your treatment. I woke up from the table and I felt almost drunk from being so relaxed and falling asleep a couple times throughout the session.

Ultimately, When I tell you she's the woman you want by your side through the wedding process or even just to calm your nerves with a spa day, it's no joke. I'm pretty sure I would've lost my mind if I didn't have someone so passionate about find my wedding look and be so excited to give me the most relaxing and nourishing facial of my life a week before my wedding. She's reliable, her pricing is more than fair, she's very responsive, very professional and altogether VERY genuine! I adore her whole heartedly and I recommend her to anyone and everyone!

I attached some images for people to see her work. I have pictures that she took directly without filters in natural lighting on me, my mom and my sister provided along with unedited pictures from my facial session. My skin is literally glowing! and I provided a couple that were taken by my photographer on my wedding day to see how it looks in edited photos!

She make you feel like your the most beautiful woman in the world.

I would love to have her do my makeup everyday. I didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. And I’ve had my makeup done many times and felt awkward and stiff. I was very relaxed while she was doing my makeup and even got a mini face massage. She has a calm voice which makes you feel relaxed and treats you like her best girlfriend. Love you to pieces ❤️

Beyond Amazing!

Kristine Marie is an amazing make-up artist. I couldn’t believe how perfect she made me look for my photo shoot. When we spoke during our first encounter she asked what I was feeling that day. I described briefly and she delivered! It was almost like she read my mind. I’ve had many makeovers and none were ever what I truly envisioned until now.
