About

Hello! I am a professional makeup artist with over 15 years of experience. My education started with fabulous working makeup artists and instructors during my time at Complections International Makeup School in Toronto, ON. There, I trained under some of the top film and fashion makeup artists in the industry. Through my work on independent films, as an artist for Armani and Chanel cosmetics, creating looks for photo shoots and fashion shows I have come to find my home in bridal beauty! While I have loved all kinds of work my brides inspire me the most. Helping brides (or clients getting ready for a special event) to create a look that makes them feel like the best version of themselves brings me so much joy.

It is my pleasure to make this portion of wedding planning as stress-free and calm as possible. I will help with the schedule and do my best to be as responsive as possible. I strive to bring out the natural beauty in my clients and wish every person to feel comfortable & confident in their own skin!

I can't wait to meet you!

Most fun & talented makeup artist!

Elisa was awesome. She's so kind and funny and easy to work with. My bridal party had a lot of folks (myself included!) who are not big on makeup and don't always know what to ask for, and everyone was so happy with their final look. She did an amazing job across ages, skin tones and textures. She was super easy to book with, the makeup trial was awesome and she helped me define the look I was going for when I wasn't quite sure how to phrase it. I am so so happy with how everyone looked and I can't recommend Elisa enough!

The Best!!

Elisa was wonderful to work with for my November wedding. Every step of the process was straightforward and scheduling the trial was easy. Elisa is super friendly, caring and well versed in all skin tones! She made my mom feel so amazing as it was her first time getting her makeup done! I felt so beyond beautiful on my wedding day and would 10/10 recommend Elisa to any future brides! I felt just like myself but just elevated which was exactly what I was going for. She was also extremely reasonably priced and her assistant artist was great. Thanks again, Elisa!!!

Cannot say enough amazing things about Elisa! The best makeup artist you could ask for!

I cannot say enough amazing things about Elisa! Having her as more makeup artist was one of the best decisions we made for the wedding! She made myself and my bridesmaids look and feel so beautiful! She is so receptive to each person to have their makeup be exactly what they were looking for! We all felt we looked like the most elevated beautiful versions of ourselves! The makeup lasted all night, through tears of joy and dancing through the night, it looked perfect through it all! Elisa also has a way of putting everyone at ease too, I had a tough experience with my hair stylist right before having my makeup done and she was amazing being able to turn the mood around so fast making me feel so beautiful. The morning of your wedding you want to have the best experience and the people make all the difference! Elisa is truly the best of both worlds as she is so fun to talk with and keeps the morale high, and also the best makeup artist ! I cannot recommend Elisa enough for any brides to be, you will have the best experience with her!

6/28 Wedding

Elisa was absolutely wonderful! For my June wedding she did makeup for myself, my mom and sister and we could not have been happier! She truly listened to what we wanted and did a fantastic job replicating that. She has a way of applying makeup that makes you look flawless but not overdone and I felt so beautiful on my wedding day! I have had my makeup done several times for other weddings with various makeup artists and they truly do not compare to what Elisa is able to provide. She is very responsive and the communication was seamless so everything could go smoothly on that day. I would highly recommend Elisa for your wedding or any event where you need professional makeup done

Elisa is the BEST

Elisa is super talented, kind, and everything you need to make you feel your best! Our wedding was at 10am (which meant makeup starting at 6am) and Elisa was there with no problem. Also, as someone who does not like wearing much makeup, she made me still feel natural but with some glam. ;) She did makeup for four people and everyone looked stunning! Thank you, Elisa!!

I absolutely recommend hiring Elisa to do your wedding day make up!! She was a joy to work with! Not only was she was quick to respond and reliable, but she is also so kind!

Highly Recommend!

We loved working with Elisa and her assistant Alaina! They are so nice and down to earth. Not only did all the girls look and feel amazing, but we had such a blast getting ready. Our makeup still looked great at the end of the evening as well. We started getting ready around 8am and our wedding ended at midnight. My makeup still looked flawless when I washed my face that night - no smudging, no creasing - truly flawless. I highly recommend!

Beautiful Magic!

Elisa is such a joy and was a wonderful addition to my wedding day! She has such a fun, but calming presence and truly relieved a lot of wedding day anxiety.

After my trial, I communicated my concerns about my oily skin and longevity of my makeup. I have very oily skin, to the point where I stash oil blotting sheets in every purse, coat, car etc. She was so sweet and said shed make some adjustments for my wedding day. Let me tell you, she worked some sort of magic because I did not even feel the need to blot my face for over 12 hours!! My makeup stayed put through hours of photos, a drizzle of rain during the ceremony, and 3 hours of straight dancing!

I would highly recommend Elisa for your wedding day. Everyone looked so naturally beautiful, she stuck to timelines, and was very responsive throughout the whole process.

Flawless Makeup The Whole Night!

Elisa was outstanding to work with!! She was so responsive during the planning process and phenomenal day of. She took the few requested adjustments from my trail and made the perfect makeup for me on my big day. The most shocking, was the fact that I did not need to touch up it up even once (even though she provided extras to do so). Everything stayed perfect even through all the tears and sweat. The airbrush technique made it feel like I wasn't even wearing anything. Elisa was able to do my entire party including MILs, SILs, Aunts, and flower girls so quickly, without anything feeling rushed. She is great at what she does and I would absolutely hire her again!
