    Amy perfected our glam

    I am so so happy that I booked Amy for my bridal party and myself. Every one of the girls loved their make up, and it came across so beautiful in photos! Amy is so beautifully skilled at makeup & truly knows what will look best on you. She was able to give each of the bridal party something different while keeping it all cohesive.

    So talented

    I had my make-up done by Amy at a friends wedding several years ago and knew I had to book her for my own. She really listens to your vision and takes it away. I just got our photos back and am so pleased with how the natural look I wanted came out. My photographer knew who did my make up without me even saying which I thought spoke volumes to how talented Amy is. I also have very sensitive skin and the products she uses left my skin feeling better than before. No harsh chemicals here. Thank you, Amy, for making me feel like a million bucks on my very special day.

    Just Perfection

    I have worked with Amy since our engagement photos in 2019 — she has been outstanding every step of the way. Never have I seen a makeup artist do such an awesome job EVERY SINGLE TIME. The moms, girls, and I looked so amazing and natural! Her professionalism and timely work made a HUGE difference on wedding morning when we had lots of girls getting hair/makeup done and a strict timeline. She is truly an artist and made me look and feel like a princess on wedding day. I can’t thank you enough Amy!
