Perfect Natural Wedding Makeup

Amber is an incredible makeup artist - I highly recommend her for a natural wedding makeup look. I am normally very simple with my makeup and was worried that professional makeup would feel "cakey" or look unnatural, but Amber listened to my concerned and provided me and my bridesmaids with the perfect wedding look. I looked natural, the makeup was light but long lasting (even through wedding tears!), and I felt beautiful! Cannot recommend Amber enough - she's great to work with and clearly very skilled!

Never felt more beautiful!

Amber and her assistant did the makeup for myself, 7 bridesmaids and 2 mothers for my wedding. I told her the look I wanted and she executed it flawlessly. I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day!!!

Amazing !!!

Amber was amazing! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day. Myself and all of my bridesmaids were very happy with their make-up. Amber is very talented, professional and brings great energy to the room. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a make-up artist.

Highly recommend for eyelashes and makeup

Amber is the best! I have been going to Amber since my sisters wedding 5 years ago for eyelashes, and used her for makeup for myself, my mom and the bridal party for my wedding! She did an amazing job, all of the girls loved their makeup and felt beautiful! She is super responsive, flexible and does an awesome job! I would highly recommend Amber for eyelashes and wedding makeup.

Makeup perfection

Amber is the most amazing makeup artist! She had done my makeup when I was a bridesmaid and I knew that when I got married I would want to hire her (which was 4 years later...that's how memorable it was). She listens to your vision and is able to give you an even better look than you would have imagined. I also appreciated that when I had an idea, she gave me her honest feedback and suggestions about other ideas that may be better for my tones, and she was RIGHT! At the trial she was open to playing around with different looks so my day would be perfect. I would recommend her to everyone. She is professional, flexible, and just a joy to be around. My whole wedding party looked better than ever :).

I truly do not know where to begin with this review because I feel like I will never be able to adequately portray the absolutely outstanding experience I've had. I will start with the trial: Amber is amazing. She's hilarious, sweet, genuine, and so much fun to be around. She made me feel like an absolute rock star and delivered exactly what I had asked for in the trial. The look was amazing and I had zero concerns going into my wedding day about how my makeup would turn out.

On the day of my wedding Amber and my hair stylist, Nicole, were on time, prepared, and ready to hit the ground running from the second they got there. We had a smaller party, there were only 4 of us total, so everything went smoothly. Amber spent as much time on details for my mother and bridesmaids as she did on me. They looked FANTASTIC. I could not stop commenting on how good my mom looked.

My makeup was better than I could have ever expected. I told her to "glam it up" a bit from the trial, and I am so glad I did. She went a bit out of my comfort zone and made me look like movie star. I was in complete shock when I saw the final look and couldn't stop staring at myself in the mirror. If ever there was a day to feel like I looked truly amazing, this was the day.

We all enjoyed the air brushed makeup, it was very light and definitely lasted the entire night. I didn't wash my face before I passed out after my wedding (eeek) and all my makeup was still on the next day. I actually wore the fake lashes the whole next day as well, and then even struggled to take them off the following evening.

I cannot say enough good things about Amber. She was worth every penny. I would definitely recommend her to anyone interested, and I am already trying to find more excuses to have her do my makeup again!!

Working with Amber is an absolute dream, I don’t think there could possibly be a more talented, beautiful inside-and-out makeup artist in the world. My day-to-day life doesn’t involve too much makeup, and so when I first visited Amber for my trial, I was a bit apprehensive. I couldn’t find any Pinterest photos that accurately portrayed what I wanted—probably because I didn’t really know what I wanted—and so there I was, empty handed and clueless. Amber made me feel at ease the second I met her. She talked to me for a few minutes about our wedding, the vision, my dress... and it was as if she had known me for years—when she did my makeup, she was spot on. I felt like me, just the most beautiful version of me.

Fast forward to my eyelash appointment, and I was blown away at what a difference they make! Now, two weeks post wedding, I’m already trying to find excuses to keep them longer. Not only are the lashes beautiful, but it was so fun to spend a couple of hours with Amber, chatting about our lives and my upcoming wedding... by the time the wedding came around, I felt so comfortable with her, as if we were friends who had known each other for years.

Fast forward again to our wedding. My mom had been communicating to me for weeks at that point that she was very unsure about the idea of getting her hair and makeup professionally done. My mother-in-law had her makeup done first, and after seeing how beautifully Amber executed my MIL’s subtle look, my mom was all in! And Amber just blew her away. At that point, I knew how amazing she was, and so although I wasn’t surprised in the least that my mom felt as beautiful as she ever has, it was so special to me that my mom was able to experience feeling that way. Amber made our entire group feel like supermodels—she perfectly executed the different looks that each of us were going for... from a more organic look for me, to a more glam look for my sister... {ran out of characters... put simply, she is the best! <3}

Amber is beyond amazing!!! She came in day of & nailed the perfect wedding look! And this is with NO makeup trial due to issues on my end. She listens to concerns, wants, and what your particular about (I am VERY particular about my eyebrows & she got them perfect! Exactly how I told her I wanted them!) She is incredibly easy to get along with & will stop at nothing to make you look perfect for your day!
If you are looking for a makeup artist who not only knows what they are doing but also listens to what you want instead of doing whatever she wants... Then Amber is your girl! You will not be sorry!
I know I will be sending all my friends to her & Amber will be the only makeup artist I use for future events & extravaganzas!!

Amber is the BEST! I had no idea of what I wanted for my makeup, and in an hour she transformed me into the best version of myself. Amber is warm, she listens, and I received so many compliments on my makeup all night. It looked natural and pretty, and I felt so beautiful. I had my makeup done at 12 PM for my 5 PM wedding, and it stayed put well beyond midnight. Her airbrush work is fantastic, and she is an absolute delight to work with. If you're looking for a makeup artist, contact Amber!

I have NEVER felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. (and it wasn't the dress, I felt that beautiful in my robe!) Amber is SO AMAZING. She listened to exactly what I wanted and executed perfectly. My bridesmaids looked like super models and the airbrush is SO necessary because I could ugly cry and dance all night and it didn't budge. I showered and my makeup STILL looked perfect. Amber was super flexible with my trials and setting up the timeline. Also, she is so much fun to be around that it just added to the energy when we were getting ready. Only book her for your wedding or event if you want to look the best you've ever looked. Seriously!
