Sunshine is Great!

I had a play date (makeup trial) with Sunshine and she made me feel such at ease about the difference in doing bridal makeup. She knows her products and works with what I want!

I really am looking forward to my wedding!

Phenomenal

Sunshine and her company is just absolutely an amazing team to work with. She’s punctual, extremely kind and understanding. She is dedicated to her profession and has all the necessities to make your special event a dream come true. Also, the people who works on her team are truly kind and helpful. I felt like I was working with family because they make you feel that way and my bridesmaid loved Sunshine and her products and skills she had to offer.

Perfection Personified

I highly recommend Solstice Imaging, Inc. and Sunshine Story to any consumer seeking perfection and quality cosmetology services in preparation for any occasion. Sunshine has a superb level of skills not only in hair care but also in makeup artistry, nail, and skincare, image consulting and stylist custom wardrobe coordination. She is a consummate professional who truly has a “Midas” touch in individualizing the beauty needs of her clients. She is dependable, honest and strives to satisfy the desires of any consumers fortunate enough to secure her services. One of the best decisions I have ever made was to become a client of Solstice Imaging, Inc., and Sunshine Story. I strongly encourage those desiring “the best in the business” to consult with Sunshine about your beauty needs for special occasions or when you must present your best face at any event.
