Alan has a terrific sense of humor and was so fun to chat with and email back and forth with in preparing for my wedding day. He was very responsive and asked great questions to genuinely try and understand expectations and the look/feel of what I wanted for my wedding day. I think the best way to describe Alan is that he is a true professional and if you can allow yourself to be open and let him work his craft the way he believes you will look your absolute best - you will no doubt appear stunning when he is finished! He has an amazing artistic touch. He did my makeup, my mother's, and my mother in-law's. He came to our hotel, and it was such a pleasure to have him there with us during the day. He has a nice calming effect, and has some really fun stories to tell.
At the wedding, we all felt fabulous. It truly was amazing to feel so beautiful, and to receive so many compliments! I felt the same way when I looked at my mom, as well as, Matt’s mom – they were both glowing! My brother actually told me that this was the most beautiful he has ever seen me (which you know if anyone can get a brother to say that – you’ve done exceptionally well at your craft) Kudos to you Alan!

We all loved working with him, and thought he definitely had the magic touch!
I would highly recommend Alan for any special event.

Alan did an absolutely phenomenal job with everyone's makeup! I have had my makeup done professionally many times but I truly think he did my makeup the best I have seen it done. I was a destination bride otherwise I would certainly contact him quite often for makeup applications.

I also enjoyed working with Alan before my wedding and on the day of the event. I highly recommend him.

Alan was a wonderful makeup artist for my big day. He was timely, talented, and incredibly supportive. He managed to distract me from my nerves with stories about other brides he had worked with. He was also very understanding of my relative novice status when it came to makeup and managed to enhance my look but avoid making me like I wasn't myself. He also did a great job working with each of my bridesmaids and my mom. He was a wonderful addition to my wedding experience and I would recommend him to anyone!
