I Have Never Felt More Beautiful

Kerri was the make up artist for myself, my 8 bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother in law on my wedding day. Not only did she do the make-up for all 11 of us immaculately, she did so with time to spare, even after doing touch ups. Kerri is a master of highlighting a person's natural beauty so they still feel like themselves, just augmented in the best ways. My makeup didn't even smudge through 20 mph winds, some rain, food, drinks, and sweat. Everyone looked so beautiful, even through the end of the night. Cannot recommend Kerri enough for any of your makeup artist needs.

Kerri is the BEST!

Kerri was the absolute best! From the first email she was warm, professional and a great communicator. She was recommended by a friend and I was so happy she was available on my wedding day! She did an incredible job with not only my makeup, but my bridesmaids and mother/mother in-law. I don’t wear a ton of makeup and she made me feel like the perfect elevated version of myself. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Highly recommend Kerri! One of my best wedding decisions

Everything about working with Kerri was amazing!!! She did my wedding makeup and I also was lucky enough to have her do my makeup at one of my best friend's weddings a few months prior. Her style and art for makeup is unmatched - she makes you look so flawlessly natural and glowy. I have truly never looked or felt better getting dolled up than when working with Kerri! On top of her unmatched skill, she is just such a nice and down-to-earth person. I have enjoyed getting to know her through the trial, my friend's wedding, and my own, and she is such an amazing person inside and out. I will definitely be returning to Kerri for all my future makeup needs and strongly recommend her to others! One of the best wedding decisions I could have made :)

I loved working with Kerri and was so happy with my makeup

Kerri was recommended by a friend as well as by our photographer and she was great! Her presence and energy was so calming and confident, which was exactly what I needed while I was getting ready. I loved my makeup - it was the perfect “natural glam” look that I wanted after we made a few tweaks following my trial. All of my bridesmaids, my mom and my MIL also looked great and were happy with their makeup. (Photo by Kelly Benvenuto)

Don’t hesitate - best makeup artist you will find

Please don’t hesitate - you’ve found the best makeup artist in the area. She has patience and skill. She listens to what you want and provides her honest opinion. Kerri does a natural look but can go glam - she’ll stop and you will evaluate together. A true professional - don’t hesitate to book!

So thankful for Kerri!!

Kerri is a true artist! She is thoughtful and detailed in the work she does. She made myself and all of my bridesmaids feel so comfortable and beautiful! Everyone looked stunning and like the best version of themselves. She takes time to really understand what each girl wants for their makeup and nails it every time. She was also excellent with mother-of-the-bride and mother-of-the-groom make up as well! Couldn't imagine doing the day with someone else!

Beautiful, natural wedding glam!

Finding and booking Kerri (before anyone else scooped her up on my wedding date!) was one of the best decisions I made throughout the wedding planning process. From the start, I could tell Kerri was extremely talented, professional, and exactly what I was looking for to achieve the “natural glam” bridal look I was going for. She was quick to reply to my emails and feedback, which I was very grateful for when juggling multiple vendors at once. On my wedding day, Kerri arrived on time and with an upbeat, yet extremely calming presence. She did makeup for my three bridesmaids, mother, sister-in-law, and me and everyone looked absolutely STUNNING. A few of my bridesmaids were initially a little nervous, as they’ve been unhappy with their bridesmaid glam in the past, but Kerri quickly put them at ease. Everyone looked, and more importantly felt, amazing! When it was my turn, I suddenly felt a wave of unexpected anxiety and nerves. Kerri immediately picked up on this and reassured me it’s very common for brides to get nervous at this point in the day (who knew!) She maintained a calming space around us by limiting distractions and background noise and encouraging a few deep breaths. I truly cannot thank her enough for this. Kerri was the real MVP of the glam process and I left her chair feeling like the most beautiful bride. I hope to get the chance to work with her again in the future! 10/10 recommend!

Natural-looking, beautiful makeup

Kerri is so incredibly talented. She did my and my six bridesmaids' makeup for my wedding. I chose Kerri because it was clear that she can not only create beautiful, bold looks, but that she can also keep the makeup light and natural. I don't wear a lot of makeup and was nervous about looking overdone, but Kerri did an excellent job and talked me through each step of the process, making sure that I was comfortable with the products and colors she was using. My bridesmaids loved Kerri--she felt like another friend in the room, and really did a wonderful job with everyone's makeup. My mother chose not to get her makeup done, but when Kerri gently suggested she could use a little more eyeshadow, my mother agreed and Kerri ended up quickly touching up my mom's eyes in a really beautiful way. She even put a bit of lipstick and eyeshadow on my curious three-year-old nephew! I highly recommend hiring Kerri--she's professional, responsive, and was such a positive energy on my wedding day!

12 out of 10 – Kerri is the best!

Kerri is the real deal. Not only is her work stunning, but she is also super professional and personable! Kerri was always quick to respond with clear and concise answers, which is highly appreciated when you are dealing with multiple vendors and hundreds of emails during the wedding planning process. Day of, she made me, and all of my bridal party feel gorgeous, including my grandmother who had never had her makeup done before and was a bit nervous. Kerri calmed her nerves and gave her such a beautiful and natural look – grandma is still talking about it today! My entire bridal party is still talking about how incredible Kerri was and how much they loved their makeup. I couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful, glamourous, but not overdone look for my wedding that lasted ALL night long. I can’t wait to work with Kerri again in the future – THANK YOU, Kerri!!

Kerri is the best!

Kerri was an absolute pleasure to work with and she made me, my bridesmaids and my mom all look gorgeous for my backyard wedding. I decided I wanted a more natural look, and Kerri made me look like a glowy, elevated version of myself without completely covering my skin. On top of being incredibly talented, Kerri is a total sweetheart. You'll wish the process took longer just so you could chat with her more.

Do yourself a favor and book Kerri when you have the chance - she will go above and beyond to make sure you feel beautiful on your special day!

Kerri is an absolute dream!

There are truly not enough good things to say about Kerri. Kerri first did my makeup at my best friend's wedding in 2018. So when I got engaged in 2019, there was no question in my mind who to ask. Her makeup is flawless and so natural. She made all of my bridesmaids and my mom so comfortable and was so personable with each and everyone of them. Kerri treated me like one of her close friends and calmed my nerves while I was getting ready. She is a rockstar and she made me feel so incredibly beautiful on my wedding day. All my friends and I can't wait to host her at one of our houses for a makeup tutorial. Kerri is the absolute best.

Fantastic makeup artist!

Kerri was fantastic! She was responsive and flexible right from the start. We ended up changing our timeline, location, and number of people - Kerri didn't bat an eye. She was fun to talk to and listened to what each person wanted. We don't typically wear makeup and what Kerri did was light and natural and stunning. I definitely recommend hiring Kerri!

Kerri is the best!

Kerri was absolutely wonderful throughout this entire experience. She was so easy to communicate with and always to quick to respond. I did a trial with her, which was so much fun and so relaxed. She really listened to what I wanted and explained her thought process and did a beautiful job. The day of, she was such a kind, calming presence. She did an amazing job on my 6 bridesmaids as well, listening to what they wanted and tailoring the makeup to them. They were all so happy with it, and had nothing but wonderful things to say. My makeup was stunning and flawless and lasted the whole night. I looked exactly the way I wanted, and could not have been happier with Kerri or had a better experience!

Everyone NEEDS a Kerri

Kerri is the ABSOLUTE best! Upon first glance of her Instagram (her gorgeous makeup mixed with her love of all things spooky along with her insanely cute pup – both of which are right up my alley), I knew I wanted her to be part of my big day. When originally reaching out regarding a trial, she was extremely understanding of my anxiety about having a trial in the midst of a pandemic and focused on just my eyes while I wore a mask. Even with just having my eyes done, I left that day knowing I had to lock her in for the wedding. Fast forward to the day of the wedding, Kerri made my bridesmaids, both my mother & mother in law along with myself, look and even more importantly, feel gorgeous. Kerri knew what to highlight on each of us so that we all looked like an enhanced version of ourselves. I cannot tell you how many compliments I personally received about my makeup! I would absolutely have Kerri do my makeup again (and she will be for my best friend’s upcoming wedding in September!) – she is so easy going, personable, professional and excellent at what she does.

Excellent work!!

Kerri was absolutely awesome! She came highly recommended from not only our venue but also a co-worker. She was amazing with communicating - always speedy to reply whether it was a text or email. She was always very accommodating with any last minute changes. On the day of the wedding, she showed up with plenty of time. She finished in what seemed to be no time at all. She was very friendly and personable with all the girls and moms. I would recommend Kerri to anyone that needs a makeup artist!

She was amazing! Kerri did my wedding make up. I don’t wear much make up and wanted to make sure I still looked like myself. Kerri was perfect! She did an awesome job and all my bridesmaids loved her as well (proving she can do it all!)! I was beyond happy and highly recommended her for whatever occasion. Thank you Kerri!

This girl is a goddess!

Kerri is fantastic! I don’t wear a ton of make up and I’m not comfortable wearing heavy make up which has made it difficult for me to get my make up done professionally in the past, but not with Kerri! She does a great job of applying the make up with care and makes it look completely natural. Kerri is funny and made me feel at ease on my wedding day. She has the bride be alone while applying her make up to allow time to decompress and relax.. which worked out perfectly for me and my nerves. I highly recommend Kerri and will definitely use her again in the future!

Kerri is Amazing!

Kerri did the makeup for my bridal party and we couldn't have been happier. Not only did everyone's makeup look amazing, Kerri really listened to what each person wanted, provided guidance and advice when someone wasn't sure what they wanted, and make sure everyone was happy with their looks. We all had different styles and different comfort levels in terms of wanting a bold or natural look, and Keri nailed all of them. We also had the best time hanging out with her, and it was like having another friend in the room with us. I highly recommend her!

I knew I had to book Kerri for my wedding!

Kerri did an absolutely INCREDIBLE job on my makeup for my engagement photo shoot! We did a long shoot with 2 outfit changes and location changes on a sunny, windy day in Newport and my makeup looked just as good at the end of the day as it did at the beginning. Kerri first did my makeup for Miss Teen MA and I fell in love with her work. I then booked her for my prom makeup, too. Even then I knew she HAD to do my wedding makeup. My mom actually booked Kerri for my wedding as soon as we had a date because we both love Kerri so much! She is so knowledgeable and thoughtful about every detail. She plays up your natural beauty. I usually don't even show her inspiration pictures, I just tell her what I'm wearing and she does makeup to perfectly compliment my look! She always makes me feel glamorous & fabulous. I cannot wait to work with her on my wedding day!

Kerri was so wonderful to work with! She is so sweet and brought such positive energy to my wedding morning.

Having an amazing makeup artist was really important to me on my wedding day. I did a lot of research and am so happy I found Kerri. She had reasonable prices and her work was amazing. She is also so fun to hang out with and works fast while doing a perfect job, which is important on the wedding day when there's so much to do. I definitely recommend her!

Changed my view of using makeup!

I'm so glad I found Kerri to do the makeup for my bridesmaids and me. I don't usually wear makeup and often don't feel like I still look like myself when I do. But the way Kerri did my makeup made me feel so beautiful that day that I'm actually much more open to using it than before. I don't know how she did it, but she did it quickly and did it well. My makeup lasted all day, even through all the happy tears. She's also just fun to be around! I would highly recommend Kerri for anyone who is looking for a natural, classic look.

Kerri rocks! So great to work with

I love Kerri! Although she is mostly known for her AMAZING natural beauty looks, she was definitely up for doing a bit more drama for my big day. I felt so beautiful and just like myself but glammed up for the big day. Kerri is so fun and funny and she made me feel so at ease from the trial to the wedding day. I am so glad a friend recommended her because I couldn't have asked for a better wedding makeup artist!

Makeup Mastery

Kerri Herlihy is beyond talented in making the bride and her girls feel special during the getting ready process. And then what she does to keep everyone looking like themselves with a magical and fairytale level of beauty is spectacular! Kerri enhanced our wedding experience and I wouldn't have wanted to be in anyone else's chair for my wedding day. As soon as you book your ceremony and reception then your next call needs to be to Kerri, mine was!

Kerri made me, my mom, and my maid of honor look so beautiful for my wedding day. She was also so responsive leading up to the day, and was so cool in person.

Working with Kerri was such an absolute pleasure and I'm so happy to have had her help on my wedding day! She was so wonderful throughout the entire process - from booking to my trial all the way through wedding day. She was SUCH a calming presence on wedding day and all nine of us who got our makeup done with Kerri absolutely LOVED the way we looked, thanks to her! My makeup lasted perfectly all night long and looked amazing in pictures. And the best part was - I looked like myself, just WAY elevated :) would highly recommend - thanks again, Kerri!

I am SO happy I found and hired Kerri to be my wedding makeup artist. :-) She far exceeded my expectations in every way. She was a please to work with from the very beginning -- really responsive, flexible, and so fun! She's real and down-to-earth which made me feel comfortable and happy working with her both at my trial and the wedding. She does amazing work. I wanted beautiful, natural makeup and Kerri's work was more lovely than I could have pictured. It looked perfect -- elegant and special but not overdone at all, which is exactly what I wanted. All of my bridesmaids loved Kerri -- her personality and her work. Kerri was an awesome part of our special day and anyone would be crazy not to want her to do your wedding makeup!

Kerri is a true professional that will make you look like the best version of yourself! Kerri was recommended to me from another vendor who has worked with her in the past, and she did not disappoint. My makeup was stunning but still looked natural, and it photographed perfectly. My bridal party was also thrilled with how theirs looked! Kerri was incredibly responsive throughout the planning process, a joy to be around, and even showed up early on the wedding day. Incredible makeup and experience!

I could not have been happier with the makeup Kerri did for me and my bridesmaids for my wedding! I wanted a "best version of myself" natural makeup look for my wedding day and Kerri nailed it. At the trial she was so sweet and talked me through everything we were doing and made sure that I absolutely loved the look and didn't try to talk up or sell me on anything I didn't feel right about. On the wedding day Kerri was fantastic, so quick and able to make great suggestions which was so helpful for the bridesmaids. I've honestly never felt more beautiful than I did that day because of her amazing work to highlight my best features. Highly recommend!

I cannot stop gushing about Kerri to all of my family & friends. She absolutely knocked it out of the park! Her makeup is exactly as she states: natural, soft. elegant & never over the top. She made me feel like myself, just so much prettier! And it stayed ALL NIGHT! She is a pleasure to be around and lights up every room. She is professional and shows up earlier than necessary. My bridesmaids and mother absolutely adored their makeup. Look no further! Kerri is your girl.

Kerri is AMAZING to work with!! She did makeup for me and my wife, and it was flawless. Neither of us wear makeup, but she made us feel comfortable and made us look natural - like ourselves, but much prettier. She is also a ton of fun to talk to and a great listener (both about makeup and generally). I couldn't imagine going with any other makeup artist - Kerri is the best!!

I was very impressed by how professional and organized Kerri was, she arrived early, got everyone's make up done in a timely, but not rushed manner, and made sure that everyone was happy with how they looked.
I HIGHLY recommend Kerri!

Kerri was so much fun to work with and she made me feel and look so beautiful on my wedding day. I was really picky about selecting my makeup artist and I think I must have looked at the websites of at least 25 different artists before emailing Kerri and deciding to book her. For my wedding, I asked Kerri for a more dramatic look and she made me look like a movie-star! She also did a great job on the ‘maids and moms, accommodating everyone’s taste and preferences and making everyone look their best and feel beautiful.
From following her instagram and seeing what she did on all of my girls, she has a lot of range as a makeup artist and does a great job with the more traditional, ‘natural’ bridal makeup as well as more dramatic looks, like mine. I would highly recommend Kerri Herlihy to any bride in Boston

Kerri was amazing! I booked very last minute and luckily she happened to have my date open due to a cancellation (book early!) At my trial she was awesome - so easy going and easy to be around, and gave me some awesome tips. She was so great the day of, super flexible about adding people on who hadn't originally wanted their make-up done. She's quick and amazing at what she does. Definitely use her!

I had the privilege of seeing Kerri’s amazing talent at a close friend’s wedding back in 2014. I was immediately drawn to how flawless, natural, and absolutely beautiful the bride, her Mom, and her bridal party looked. Shortly after getting engaged myself, I contacted Kerri and booked her for my own wedding. When my Mom and I finally had the opportunity to meet Kerri at our trial a month before the wedding, I knew I made the right choice. Kerri is not only friendly, kind, genuine, and patient, but is a true artist and professional. On the wedding day, Kerri made each of my 8 bridesmaids, MOH, 2 flower girls, Mom, mother-in-law, and 85 year old Nana feel special. They each had their own look in mind and Kerri made sure that each of them was comfortable - she accentuated each individuals beautiful features flawlessly. I was blown away by my own makeup on that day and cannot thank Kerri enough for putting me at ease, giving me time to relax and unwind, and making sure I was happy with absolutely everything. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Kerri was great to work with and is an absolutely amazing makeup artist. I'm not super knowledgeable about makeup but she executed what I had in mind flawlessly. She is able to balance what will look good in person with what will look good in photos perfectly. I had eight bridesmaids, myself, two moms and two flower girls and she was able to get to all of us with time to spare. I would definitely recommend Kerri for any makeup needs!

I was so fortunate to have Kerri as part of my wedding day, she is genuine, has the biggest heart, and is so talented. She made me, my mothers, and bridal party look absolutely stunning! I went to see her a year before my wedding to have a trial and she totally knocked my socks off. I struggle with melasma in the summer, redness, fight an on an on and off again battle with cystic acne, and she made my face look flawless and just gorgeous. The best part is that I didn't feel or really look like I was wearing makeup at all! In addition, she gave me makeup application tips and product suggestions that have been truly invaluable. On the day of our wedding she really advocated for me as a bride and made sure that my time in the makeup chair was tranquil and uninterrupted. Your wedding day goes by so quickly and that is something I will always cherish and remember from that day!

I can't say enough about how amazingly talented Kerri is. Her artistic ability was beyond what I needed on my wedding day. We clicked as soon as I met the most ugly adorable cuddle bug of her dog at the trial. (I also have a gremlin looking dog who's 16 yrs old.) I know my skin isn’t easy to work with, since its so dry and stupid acne, but she was able to make my face look exquisite. My bridesmaids and mother had nothing but compliments about her work. She is so professional, friendly and easy going. You'd be making a huge mistake not to hire her!

Kerri did the makeup for my April 2016 wedding and I’m so happy we were able to work with her. She was so flexible and fun, it felt like hanging out with an old friend all day. She quickly and flawlessly did the makeup for me plus seven others and everyone looked absolutely beautiful.

I first met Kerri at my trial in October. I had engagement photos scheduled and figured I’d kill two birds with one stone. Not only did Kerri do an amazing job, she accommodated my weird schedule and traveled to my house to do it because she happened to be in my neighborhood. I was blown away at how flexible she was through the whole process and she’s so talented!

Kerri’s style is great because it’s so versatile. She accommodated girls who are makeup-phobic and made them look natural and beautiful and also accommodated those of us who wanted a bolder statement look. She’s a perfectionist and everyone was so thrilled with her work.

If you need makeup services for your wedding or any special event, Kerri is your girl. I can’t wait until I have an excuse to get my makeup done and see her again!

Kerri is AMAZING!! She not only did a fabulous job on my makeup for my engagement photos, but knocked it out of the park on my wedding day!! She did a GORGEOUS job on all of my bridal party and made me look like I belonged on the cover of a magazine!! I can't wait to keep finding reasons for Kerri to do my makeup because not only is she so talented, but a blast to be around!! If you are looking for someone to do your makeup for you wedding, look no further...because Kerri is simply the BEST!!

Kerri is absolutely amazing!! I have had the pleasure of being in Kerri's chair a few times before the big day so I knew how incredible talented she was and her great personality! She was so wonderful !! She was there for me, could sense when I needed a few minutes of quiet time and a glass of wine. Her calming energy was such an amazing presence to have with you on such a highly emotional ( and sometimes hectic) day! My bridesmaids were blown away by the natural classic look and couldn't have been happier. Even my step sister that never wears make up couldn't believe how her eyes popped but still looked so natural. Kerri really listed to everyone and made sure all the girls felt comfortable! Kerri is so talented, kind, fun, professional and brings an incredible energy with her that everyone gravitated towards!

Kerri is absolutely amazing to work with and extremely talented at what she does. She is the only makeup artist I wanted to have for myself and my bridesmaids for my wedding day. She can do anything when it comes to make up and makes you feel extremely comfortable with your final overall look. She uses all natural makeup and can do a natural overall look, which some of my bridesmaids requested, or a more dramatic look, which I enjoy a little more. She is a sweetheart to work with, and I greatly appreciate that she took my wedding day nerves into account when she was nicely letting me have my quiet time while she did my makeup. The make up she did for my bridesmaids and I is still all we can talk about! We have never felt more beautiful than we did that day. And the best part is the makeup lasts all day!! Even after hours of dancing everything was still exactly as it had been that morning. Kerri is an absolute joy to work with, and is both professional and responsive to all questions and emails, as much as she is friendly and kind. She was such a huge part of my wedding day I have never felt more beautiful than I did that day.

I met Kerri on a video shoot shortly after I got engaged last December. She was so down to earth (+ did a kickass jobs on the actors/actresses for the shoot) I knew I had to book her for my wedding. I don't wear much makeup on a daily basis and Kerri made me feel comfortable and created a natural look for the day where I still felt like myself. She also did an amazinging, stress free job on all 9 bridesmaids for an early morning brunch wedding with a tight time crunch, everyone looked so beautiful! Thank you Kerri <3

I met Kerri as a bridesmaid for a friend's wedding and I am so happy that our paths crossed. Kerri is seriously the best! I never felt so beautiful in my life and even though its already been a month since the wedding I am still getting compliments. You will not be disappointed if you use her services.

You won't find a better makeup artist or beautiful person inside and out than Kerri. You are doing yourself a disservice if you don't hire her for any event you need/want your makeup done. Her kindness, talent, and obvious love for her job helps her bring out the beauty in everyone who sits in her chair. I had never met Kerri before my trial and I felt like I had known her for years within the first few minutes of meeting her and I'm so glad she played a role in the best day of my life. My advice is to do yourself a favor and book her way in advance!

Kerri did such a beautiful job with makeup for me, my 5 bridesmaids, my mother, and my mother-in-law for my wedding in August. After my initial consultation with her at her home (with her adorable dog), I loved the makeup but saw that my face looked extremely oily afterwards. Kerri assured me that she would fix the problem on the day of, and she absolutely did. She also recommended several products for me to purchase ahead of time (oil absorbing powder and the right shade of lipstick) and did several sweet and friendly check-ins to see whether I had everything I needed before my wedding day.

My mother and mother-in-law looked absolutely stunning, and it was obvious that they felt great about their makeup. All of my bridesmaids looked incredible, as well, and Kerri did a great job of listening to what each of them liked and how they wanted to look. She was sweet, friendly, VERY quick, and professional, and honestly just added to the already happy but laid-back vibe of the room. I personally felt as beautiful as I ever have, and didn't worry about my makeup all night, despite sweating a ton on the dance floor. I'd love to use Kerri's services again in the future - thank you so much, Kerri!

I booked Kerri as soon as she told me she was free for my wedding! I knew she would be amazing so I was not worried at all that we didnt do a trial first. When we met for the trial, she was so nice, i felt like i had known her for years! She knew exactly what to do on me- the makeup came out beautiful and lasted all day even through a workout! The day of my wedding, Kerri showed up on time and ready to go. She brought such a fun energy to the morning, everyone loved being around her. Kerri did all eight of my bridesmaids plus me. She finished on time and was able to touch everyone up. My makeup looked perfect (even better than the trial if that is possible!). I really loved having Kerri do my makeup. I have never felt so beautiful! Thank you so much Kerri!

I wish I could give her 10 stars! Kerri did makeup for my 9/19/2015 wedding (myself and 8 other ladies). Everyone was RAVING about her. She made sure all of us look very natural, but made everyone's best features pop for pictures. Now that I have some professional photos back, I can really see that Kerri is at the top of her craft. Everyone looks stunning. I feel so lucky that I was able to snag her for my wedding! Kerri is also the consummate professional. She was always responsive to my emails and texts, very upfront about her rates, and pretty flexible on payment methods (paypal, check, cash, etc). She showed up right on time to the hotel, and was able to get everyone done by the appointed hour without even breaking a sweat. She even went to the trouble of buying us a bunch of sample lip glosses that the girls could use for touch-ups throughout the night. She's really great with fake lashes, as well. Mine stayed on all night, and yet I was able to remove with soap and water, without pulling all my real eyelashes out. In addition to being amazing at her job, Kerri is also just a lovely person. I could hear her chatting away with everyone in her chair throughout the morning, and she made everyone feel so at ease. I would recommend her without reservation. My only advice is to book early, because she is in really high demand!

I booked Kerri for my wedding on September 5, 2015. I couldn't have asked for a better person for the job! She was absolutely incredible. Kerri did 8 bridesmaids make up, myself, and my mother and everyone loved their results. Kerri was able to do 10 women promptly but also made sure that everyone was happy with their make-up and all with a smile on her face. As for my make-up, I felt so beautiful when she was done. I don't typically wear make-up and she made me feel gorgeous but I still felt like "me" in the end. I would highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for bridal make-up for their big day!

Kerri is the best in the business. She is professional, prompt, and she is so knowledgeable. She knows what will make a bride look her best. She does beautiful makeup!! I booked her for me and my whole wedding party(5 girls, Bride, MOB, and MOG). Every single lady in the wedding party absolutely loved their make up. I would not hesitate to rebook Kerri again for my wedding. She was the best vendor I worked with. She is fabulous!! Love her!!! I can't wait to get my pictures back ! Guests were commenting how flawless my make up looked. She is truly a gem!

I have not yet sat in Kerri's chair... but I cannot WAIT to! I recently booked Kerri for my wedding makeup and she has been a dream to work with so far. Based on all the amazing reviews and photos of her work, I am so anxious to have my trial! During the stressful time of wedding planning, it feels so good to not worry about how my makeup will turn out... such an important piece... because I know Kerri will do a fab job!

I posted the above prior to my trial. Now 2 months married, I can happily report that going with Kerri was the right choice... the only choice!! Kerri has a true artistic talent. She can apply makeup so naturally and the results are so stunning. She's also incredibly efficient, I can't believe what an amazing job she does and it almost seems effortless... of course it isn't... in such a short amount of time. Kerri was the BEST makeup application of my life on top of being the FASTEST. How does that happen?! I felt like a beautiful bride and all my girls loved her work too. It was wonderful to not have to worry about such an important aspect of my wedding day because I knew she would nail it. Thanks, Kerri!

Kerri is a rock star!!!! I wish I could give her more than 5 *'s . She recently did my makeup for my wedding on September 18th as well as my bridesmaids and mother. Myself , bridal party and picky mother were all pleased and excited with how their makeup came out. I just got some of my professional pictures back and my face and makeup are flawless. I felt so confident taking pictures all day because I knew my makeup was on point. Kerri arrived on time, responded to all emails and phone calls right away, flexible and extremely professional. She makes everyone feel so comfortable. I feel like she is one of my long lost friends. She is extremely down to earth and is a talented artist. I had her do my makeup trial mid August during a heat wave. I loved how it all turned out that I decided to continue you on with my day and took an intense CrossFit class later that day. At the end of the class my lashes were still intact and my face makeup survived all my sweatiness . ( and i sweat a ton!) I am one of the few brides that got nervous the day of my wedding and Kerri made getting ready fun . She did however serve as a psychologist for my anxiety ridden mom. My mom was legit shaking. When she sat in Kerri's chair I heard her talking to my mom and calming her down. After she was done with her my mom was a new person. My mother later that night told me if it was for Kerri she would of had a panic attack.( Thank you Kerri again for calming her down !) So if you are the anxious nervous type Kerri will help diffuse all of that. You can tell she really loves what she does and is passionate about her work . I highly recommend her and plan on using her again in the near future for other life event photo shoots. Also her dog Benny is the best pup around!

I searched long and hard to find the right make-up artist and I am so happy that I found Kerri. I chose Kerri because she does not cake on make up and everything looks very natural, while enhancing your best features. She was very easy to work with and was extremely accommodating and responsive. Within minutes of knowing her, it is like she is an old friend and is a joy to have around on your wedding day. She comes in with a vision, but will also keep working until you are completely satisfied. Furthermore, my make up held up perfectly the whole night (and we are talking a hot August 1 in Boston with a little rain)! All of the ladies looked BEAUTIFUL and it was so fun watching everyone come out of her chair one by one looking like glamorous.

I wish I could give Kerri more than 5 stars, she was absolutely amazing. I had the pleasure of working with her for my engagement photos, trial, and my wedding day. Each time I had a different look and I loved everything that she did. She was very responsive, flexible, and excellent to work with. She did beautiful work and let me experiment with different lengths of eyelashes which I loved. The day of the wedding she was very professional, on time, ready to go and flexible in adding people to get there make up done that had not originally signed up. It was an amazing experience, she has the best personality, and really does excellent work! Everyone looked beautiful and I can't thank her enough. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again!

Kerri is fabulous! She did such a wonderful job with everyone's makeup which included me, my four bridesmaids, mom, stepmom and mother-in-law. She really listened to what each person wanted and was comfortable with and they all looked gorgeous! As someone who doesn't wear much makeup on a regular basis, I couldn't have been happier with how natural it looked. Everyone told me that I looked like myself, but a little fancier :)

I did a trial with her not long after we got engaged and booked her on the spot! She is really sweet and was a blast to get ready with. She did touch ups on everyone before she left and even finished early!

I would highly recommend Kerri for your wedding!

Kerri is amazing. She recently did my makeup for my wedding on June 6th, as well as my five bridesmaids and my mother. Everybody looked beautiful; the makeup was flawless and lasted all night! Kerri arrived right on time and her calm and fun demeanor kept us all relaxed while we were getting ready. She took the time to listen to each girl’s preference and was able to give us each exactly the look we wanted. The eyelashes she brought were perfect, looked amazing and didn’t budge all night. Kerri even gave me an extra lip gloss and eyelash glue to make sure we would be set through the night! I’m so happy Kerri was with us before the wedding, she is extremely talented and I highly recommend any bride to reach out to her!

I contacted Kerri based on her outstanding reviews & she got back to me right away. We set up a trial & I explained that I've never felt like the nude & blush tones associated with a lot of wedding makeup suit me. Kerri was happy to go with a red lip & pretty gold eye makeup. My skin looked glowy & natural, and it all lasted all night. My guy couldn't tell I had fake lashes on, which is exactly what I wanted.
A few days before my wedding I learned that we wouldn't have time to get ready at the venue. Kerri was happy to change plans & come to my condo. She made my friends & my mom look gorgeous & was so much fun to have around! Recommend 100%!

One word...AMAZING. Not only is she ridiculously talented she made me and all others in my bridal party (including mothers) feel like it was also their special day! Everyone felt and looked stunning. From the moment I sat in Kerri's makeup chair for my trial I knew she would be more than our makeup artist for the day. She would be the calming and relaxing voice of reason while getting ready! She timed everything perfectly. Did some extra makeup and stayed late to change my lipstick color and touch up! I will be using her again for makeup for a boudoir session I plan to do for an anniversary gift! Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Kerri is amazing! She did the makeup for my 2/21 wedding and I am so happy she did.

As someone who doesn't typically wear a lot of makeup, I was nervous, but Kerri did a great job of finding a balance between natural and at the same time giving me an extra bit of glam for my wedding day. The products she uses didn't feel heavy on my skin and I didn't break out as I feared I would afterwards.

She is personable, professional, and truly talented. She is happy and willing to try different looks, and has a natural eye for what will accentuate your features best.

I highly recommend Kerri for your big day. :)

Kerri is awesome! Not only does she do a beautiful job with makeup, but she's a great person to have around on your wedding day. She'll help you feel relaxed and provide a good laugh!

Kerri did the makeup for myself, mother, mother in law, and 4 bridesmaids for my wedding on 9/27/14, and everyone not only loved how they looked but loved working with Kerri. Kerri arrived right on time, gave each girl a good amount of attention, made sure everyone was happy with their look, and offered everyone touch ups before she left. Before meeting Kerri, not everyone was on board with fake lashes, but after seeing how great they looked, they changed their minds. All of us looked our best, and I would absolutely recommend Kerri to any bride or anyone looking for a great makeup artist.

I knew I was going to work with Kerri for my wedding before I even got engaged! She had done my best friend's wedding the year prior and was so incredible...there was no point to even look for anyone else. Kerri listens closely to what each girl wants and every single person was thrilled, absolutely zero complaints. I felt beautiful on my wedding day. She did a gorgeous job on my mom, too! She is also just lovely to be around...I'm sure the rest of my girlfriends will be hiring her for future weddings, too!

I found Kerri via a Yelp search for "top Boston wedding makeup artists".... and I was certainly not misled. After admiring her work on her Facebook page, I booked her over 6 months in advance. She did my wedding makeup on 6/28/14, and also for 4 bridesmaids and my mom. Everyone looked outstanding! No one looked "fake" or overly made-up....really, she just finds the beauty in each person and brings it out. I couldn't stop looking at everyone's faces and my mom looked hot! She really made everyone feel so good about themselves and it only added to the spirit of the day.

Kerri was also a great addition to the bridal suite during the morning of preparations. She's super sweet and friendly. I felt calmed just by having her there and went to the wedding feeling very confident, knowing that she had completely taken care of me. I received SO many compliments on my makeup. At the end of the night, after hours of dancing outdoors on a warm summer night, my makeup was flawless! Unbelievable. That is why you hire a professional makeup artist for your wedding---you want it to last. The reason why you hire Kerri is because you want to be the most beautiful version of yourself. I highly recommend her--she's simply the best. Why take a risk on something so important? Just book Kerri as soon as you can!

Thank you, Kerri. I know I made a great choice, and the proof is in the photos!

Kerri was outstanding, fantatic, fun, you name it and she embodied it.

When I first met Kerri we talked a bit about my vision for how I wanted to look on my wedding day. "Pretty?" was what I told her. I don't normally wear any makeup (often lip gloss is "fancy" for me) but I knew my wedding was a special occasion that I wanted to look good for. Kerri took great care to try a few different looks on me at my trial, and made sure I was comfortable with what I chose before we moved forward. She never pressed a certain look on me and she was great to tell me what she thought might look great and what we could do without. I chose a natural look for my makeup and she didn't even skip a beat. When I told her I'd have six people besides myself she said "awesome". When I later contacted her and said I'd have two more her response was "sounds great". She made everyone look absolutely amazing and feel so fantastic, incuding my teenage nieces, which is no small feat! She also made us look amazing while sharing a hotel room with my hairdresser, and she took a room full of hairspray plus a very curious greyhound wandering amongst her stuff in style. :)

Kerri made the impossible possible: She made me feel so pretty for my wedding, and did the same for my bridal party. She was fun, relaxing, and so easy to get along with. I wish I had more events I needed her for; I'd hire her again in a heartbeat.

Kerri did the makeup for my wedding on April 26, 2014. She is amazing. She did the makeup for 6 girls and was very efficient and calm and did such a beautiful job. My makeup lasted all night and I got endless compliments. She is also very professional, responds to emails immediately, and arrived early on the wedding day. Definitely use her!!

Kerri did the makeup for myself, my mother, and my 4 bridesmaids for my wedding a couple of weeks ago. I don't typically wear much makeup and was worried that I would look not like myself or that the makeup would be obvious. I told Kerri that I wanted a light natural look, but had no other opinion or mere idea of any other input to provide her with! In the end we looked Perfect, so natural, clean, and she definitely highlighted everyone's natural strengths and beauty. To top it off she was amazingly friendly, sweet, and funny, and really had a natural talent of putting everyone at ease on a stressful busy morning! I cannot recommend Kerri enough, and have been trying to plan future events where I will have an excuse to use her services again!!

Kerri did my make-up for a photo shoot with a local magazine and I knew I had to have her for my wedding!! For each occasion she gave me the exact look that I was hoping for even when I didn't know what that look was. For my wedding, I had seven bridesmaids with varied preferences and she nailed it for each of them. Everyone was so happy with her work! Not only is Kerri incredibly talented and committed to making sure her clients are happy, but she's also an awesome person to have around. She is super down to earth and I loved having her there for all of the pre-wedding festivities. Again, whether you are into a natural look or a more glammed up look, Kerri knows how to deliver. In terms of cost, she is VERY reasonable, especially when you consider what her competition charges. (Although, from my perspective, she has no competition!). If you are looking for a make-up artist, look no further, you will not be disappointed!!

Kerri was absolutely wonderful! She was a joy to work with and put everyone at ease during the entire process, just knowing we were in such capable hands! From the trial to the day itself, everything was perfect. She made me, my MOH and mom look beautiful without looking like we were wearing lots of makeup! Not only is she a superb makeup artist, her great personality was a fun addition while we were all getting ready before the ceremony!

I would wholeheartedly recommend Kerri to any bride - or to anyone needing their makeup done for an event! My only regret is that I can't have Kerri do my makeup every day...!

Kerri is an amazing make-up artist! She is incredibly talented, and was very easy to work with. On the day of my wedding, she did make-up for varying members of our families, including my mother-in-law, who never wears make-up. Kerri was responsive to her usual style, and able to enhance her beautifully. She looked and felt gorgeous.

I could not have been happier with my own make-up, though I knew this from my trial. She captured exactly the look that I wanted, which was very natural. After working with Kerri, I will never go without her doing my make-up for formal events again. You will love working with her!

Kerri was absolutely super. Our first introduction was at the trial, where she expertly applied gradual layers of make-up going from "natural" to "dramatic." Since I don't wear a lot of make-up and did not have a good concept of what I wanted, this process was great and enabled me to choose a style based on what I saw.
On the day of, Kerri was so lovely to work with and added to the fun atmosphere. She was even able to very diplomatically handle a difficult family member who was getting her make-up done.
As another reviewer mentioned, her best talent lies in her ability to "elevate" a person's natural beauty so that they still look very much like themselves but more pristine. I could not have been more pleased with her work!

I have no reservations about recommending Kerri to anyone. I live out of state, so I booked her on a recommendation from my planner. I was not disappointed, she was amazing. We did my trial at her house before my engagement photos-which was fabulous since I could see how the colors photographed. She was very quick, but did a great job of explaining what she was using and why she wanted to use it--including the eyelashes that I am now in love with!

Kerri did my makeup and eyelashes again for my wedding, along with my bridesmaids and the mothers of the bride and groom. Everyone looked stunning. She knows how to make people look like themselves, but just elevated. Perfect. Kerri also put eyelashes on the two bridesmaids who wanted to do their own makeup, and they were very pleased. They just photograph so well! My makeup even lasted through a steaming hot August ceremony in a church without AC, a subsequent rainstorm, and lots of dancing.

Kerri will travel to the site where you are getting ready, and her rates are competitive- but above all, she brings a fun energy but also does a great job of bringing a calming down a bride in the stressful moments before she does her first look! (And will stay to retouch your makeup if there are some stress relieving tears :) )

Book her now.

As a former model I had worked with Kerri on a fashion photo shoot several years ago and I told her then that if I ever got married she would have to be my makeup artist. I think she thought I was kidding but when I finally got engaged she was one of the first people I called just to make sure she was available. There is a reason Kerri is my go to girl....she is simply AMAZING. I love make up and Kerri helped me combine my love for drama with a classic look for my wedding day. She even took on the task of doing make up for my entire bridal party and my mom, an all day job but she handled it like a pro, every single person (there were 8 total) looked amazing and she even stuck around to touch up everyone before we headed off to the ceremony. She was a joy to be around and when my family started to get a little rowdy she knew exactly what to say to get everyone back in line. When it comes to looking your best on your wedding day Kerri is the only person I would recommend. If you hire Kerri for your wedding day you will not be disappointed. In my opinion, she really is the best make up artist in New England.

Kerri is amazing to work with. She's full of energy and immediately puts you at ease when you meet her. She is a true makeup artist with great aesthetic vision and the energy/technique to execute it. She glamed me and my wedding party up on my wedding day and made us all look gorgeous but still like ourselves. Do yourself a huge favor and book her!
