Shameika to the rescue!

Shameika is professional, easy to talk to and punctual. My makeup plan did not go as envisioned due to scheduling mishaps however I am so GRATEFUL I was referred to Shameika. Her work was beautiful, lasted throughout my wedding and she worked with my tight time frame. Brides you will be very appreciative to have a makeup artist like her.
