What is the story behind Makeup By Tatum?

I believe your bridal makeup should feel like you—just elevated for the occasion. I specialize in fresh skin, soft definition, and timeless artistry, creating makeup that enhances your natural features without taking away from what makes you, you. With years of experience working with brides, I’ve learned that the best bridal makeup starts with listening: understanding your personal style, what makes you feel confident, and how you want to see yourself when you look back at your wedding photos years from now. Based in Columbus, Ohio, I’m proud to offer a personalized bridal experience through Makeup By Tatum, alongside a team of artists who share my approach to beautiful, authentic bridal makeup.

They make you look more beautiful than you ever thought possible!

Tatum did my makeup for my engagement photoshoot, as well as mine and my bridal parties makeup for my wedding. She also had Torrie assist with the bridal party. Both times she did my makeup, I looked absolutely flawless and like myself, but way better! The makeup also photographed amazingly! She listed and asked questions along the way to ensure she was meeting my expectation and vision. As a person, she is so nice and kind, and I felt so comfortable working with her. I would hands down recommend booking Tatum or her other artists for your next event - you will adore her!

Best experience!

I used Julie for my wedding makeup and it was the best decision I ever made! Very professional and wonderful to work with. Julie went the extra mile for me to ensure my wedding makeup was exactly how I envisioned it. I couldn’t have been any happier!

I had a very diverse bridal party, so looking for a makeup artist was a little bit of a challenge. When I saw Tatum’s website and collection of work, I know she would be able to handle our group. Not only did she have the right shades for all our skin tones but we all still looked beautiful at the end of the night! I only had to do one lipstick touch up and one oil sheet pat down. Our makeup stayed on through eating, dancing, pictures and happy tears. She made us all feel beautiful while still looking like ourselves. Absolutely amazing!

Tatum did such an AWESOME job on our Wedding party last weekend! She listened to each persons request carefully and tailored the look to their specifications. I loved that each girl's look was different and totally in line with their comfort level and vision... from Natural to Glam, she did it all. Beyond the make up, Tatum was on time and a total pleasure to share our crazy morning with. Thanks girl!

Tatum was absolutely amazing! She did exactly what I asked for and her contouring capabilities are out of this world. I would recommend her and Julie both to anyone getting married or looking for a makeup artist for a special occasion!!

I had Tatum do my makeup for my wedding, and I cannot say enough about how satisfied I was with her work! She was very flexible and open to the dates and times I needed her and she responded quickly to any changes I had to make. The day of, she was punctual and patient with all the interruptions and distractions I had going on. She listened to what I wanted and gave me even more than I expected. I will definitely have her do my makeup again!
I also happen to know Tatum outside of this experience and she is very hardworking and her passion for her work shows every single day. She's consistent and driven and an overall amazing woman who inspires everyone around her!

Tatum is a very professional and thoughtful make-up artist. I have used her personally and can't say enough about how well she listened to my needs. I am not normally a make-up gal, but really enjoyed my time in her chair. I didn't feel over-done and my makeup didn't cause my skin to "freak out." My clients who have used her in the past have all given raving reviews about the care and attention that they received. Tatum is punctual and fair in her pricing. She's at the top of my list when asked, "who should we use for makeup?"

Tatum and I have worked together on numerous occasions and I can't speak more highly of her as a person and a business owner! She is always prompt, professional and eager to make her clients happy. I plan to work with Tatum for the rest of my photography career, if that tells you anything! Her work is beautiful, inspiring and always tasteful. If you're looking for makeup for any occasion, whatsoever, Tatum is your woman!
