A little about our Makeup Artists:
Laura Bodziony is the owner of Make Me Up. She is a licensed Esthetician and Makeup Artist and has been working with brides for over ten years. She believes the key to success is to focus on each bride as an individual and make the beauty part of the day absolutely stress free. All of her makeup artists use MAC, Smashbox, and Bare Mineral Products, ensuring that the picture perfect look lasts the entire day.
"At a very young age I found my passion of Makeup. However, make-up became a hobby & I decided to go to college for TV production. That is where I learned how my make-up skills could be used on camera, understanding the way the subjects' features are portrayed through film and lighting. During this time I started doing make-up for weddings, first for friends, then through referrals. I still wanted to know how I could improve myself and my understanding about each individual's skin. After college I decided to become an Esthetician, since skin care is the foundation for makeup. Since then I have had the privilege of working on model shoots, as well as working with brides, & giving make-up application lessons for all ages. I must say I LOVE MY JOB. I have also been very fortunate to have found a team of hair stylists to work with. Together we have fun and help people feel and look their best!"
Renee
Renee has been with Make Me Up Bridal since 2014. Once the business started growing, Laura needed an experienced Makeup Artist to join her team, and Renee was the perfect fit! She has been a licensed Esthetician since 2006, and found her knack in makeup around the same time. She brings not only great talent and experience to our team, but also a great personality to have present on your wedding day.
“I have been working with Makeup for as long as I remember. It is a true passion for me. I have always loved the transformation that can come from dramatic makeup and confidence it provides. I have been doing professional bridal makeup since 2006 and I absolutely love working with brides on their big day! Making them feel beautiful is the most rewarding part of my job. I believe in 100% satisfaction and I don’t want anyone getting up from my chair feeling less than perfect. Working with these wonderful woman is such a privilege and I love what I do!"

“I love being in the cosmetology industry, not only to make women feel beautiful on the outside, but to bring out their happiness from within. That's what I believe beauty truly is- happiness, their glow and smile. Helping a client to realize this by pampering them, and showing them all their best qualities is a great feeling! I love that I get to be a part of making people feel confident! I'm very lucky I get to love what I do, it's never "work" and it’s always a fun and exciting experience.”
Susanna

“I work to ensure each client is satisfied whether they want to simply highlight their natural beauty or want to try something bold and glamorous. I love working on clients of all ages and like finding each person’s best feature and accentuating it. What I love about weddings is getting the privilege to help in the execution of each client’s most memorable and special day. Getting to know each client in my chair makes each session unforgettable and so much fun. I aim to have everyone leave my chair feeling a bit more fabulous and confident (and of course with a good quality setting spray to keep their makeup looking equally fabulous through the day and night!).”

Solange is one of our speedy stylists and works great under pressure. No client leaves her chair without feeling beautiful, and usually amazed at her speed and talent! She has forgone working in a salon so that her schedule can focus on just weddings (and her weekend schedule certainly reflects her dedication to weddings!) We love having Solange a part of our team, and brides love her as well! There aren’t enough words for the talent she has for wedding day styling.
“My passion for hair still keeps growing. I decided that I wanted to be a stylist when I was a teenager. Working with Laura and the Make Me Up Bridal team has been the best experience of my career. I have a huge passion for styling hair. Being such an important part of a brides’ special day is such a privilege. Brides are so busy preparing for their special day that often they forget that when they are getting ready each moment is going to by quick. I make sure that the bride is relaxed and takes in the moment! I want her to feel beautiful when walking down the aisle, and thankfully I have the privilege to be part of that feeling.”

Weddings have become a passion of mine over the past 6 years. It’s the atmosphere and thrill of getting a bride and her bridesmaids ready for one of the most important days of her life. I? enjoy meeting each and every bride as I? do my best to make her feel absolutely beautiful. I? will continue to learn and further my skills and experience.”

“I have had my cosmetology license for over fifteen years now, yet it never gets stale or boring. How could it, when you meet so many different people, with different personalities, styles, hair types, etc.? I decided at a very young age that I wanted to be a stylist. I wanted to raise a family and being a stylist allowed me to have the flexible schedule I needed to do that. As I began to work with brides preparing for such an important day in their lives, I realized how important an assignment it is. A bride should feel her most beautiful on her wedding day, and I have the privilege to be part of that.”
Kailah

Not all stylist have the skills to specialize in wedding hair, so when we find a stylist who is skilled and has a talent for updo’s and styling, we snatch them up. We are so happy to have Kailah on our team!
“I've enjoyed a range of interests from spray tanning to specialized coloring techniques and precision hair cutting. I have enjoyed this career choice because every day is different, I love the unpredictability it allows. I have always loved when a wedding party would come into the salon, so now working for Make Me Up Bridal allows me to always do what I have enjoyed. I love being a part of someone's special day, the energy is alive with excitement and romance. It is so much fun to meet new people and hear their stories and being able to help them achieve their look for the special day is a privilege. I always say I wish I could do this every weekend because I love what I do so much. I heard a quote once that truly applies; "love what you do and you will never work a day in your life."
