    My wedding fairy godmother

    Miranda did a lovely job on my hair and make up for the wedding. Everyone commented on how beautiful it looked. She really knows how to make you pop for the camera and finds ways to highlight your best features. She's also super sweet and personable - it's nice to have someone who is easy to talk to and makes you feel calm, especially on a day as emotionally charged as your wedding day.
    I definitely recommend Miranda for your hair and make up needs!

    Miranda did a wonderful job on the day of my wedding. She was recommended by a friend of my husband. I’m so happy that she did an amazing job. I had so many compliments that’s night. She’s very down to earth, personable, and easy to talk to. She is very skilled in her work and she listen to what I wanted. Her assistant helped with my mom and my bridesmaids hair and make up and they where all happy and satisfied. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family.

    Miranda is the BEST! She came highly recommended by a good friend of mine and by the makeup artist I had booked - Miranda did my hair and my bridesmaids' and mom's hair for my wedding this weekend. Everyone looked stunning and just as beautiful by the end of the night after some crazy dancing.

    I can't express how much I loved my hair style - I had a braided crown - and how helpful, fun, and kind Miranda is! She made me feel so comfortable and confident and I felt so beautiful. Thank you so much, Miranda!!

    Miranda is AMAZING!!! I absolutely lucked out in finding her to do my hair and makeup for my wedding day. I’m not great at describing what I wanted, but she absolutely nailed the vision I didn’t even have in my head yet :)

    I will absolutely go back to get my hair and makeup done for special occasions, and maybe I’ll even conjure up a few excuses just so I can feel as beautiful as she made me feel for my wedding. Thank you Miranda!!

    Loved working with Miranda for my wedding! She is excellent at communications, quick to respond to emails, and super organized. I had a really general idea what I wanted for my bridal hair, and sent her various ideas. From there, she was able to pick out the common themes that I liked from different photos and created a dream updo! We did a trial run and I let her know what I liked, didn't like, and what I wanted adjusted, and she took all those in stride and created an even better updo on the day of. She did my hair, 2 bridesmaids' hair, and my mom's make-up, all without running over time. She also had a colleague with her to do my other 4 bridesmaids' hair (she was also super on schedule). And let me tell you, my hair stayed in place from 7AM when she finished with me, all the way to past the after party! I got so many compliments on my updo and it looked great in photos. Thanks again for everything!!

    I had my wedding on November 11, 2017 and chose Miranda to my hair and makeup! I had 2 trials because I really could not make up my mind in how I wanted my hair and makeup to be. The day of the wedding was slightly different from the two trials I had bc I again changed my mind, but Miranda exceeded my expectations and did my hair and makeup exactly how I pictured it! She takes her time and she's amazing at what she does! My hair and makeup lasted throughout the whole day and I highly recommend her. She has a such a sweet personality and she's wonderful to work with! You'll love her!

    Having Miranda be part of our wedding was just like having another family member there with us.

    After my original MUA canceled on me a few weeks before my engagement photo session, my sister recommended me to Miranda. Miranda asked me to send her photo inspirations and on the morning of the engagement photoshoot, she turned me into a bombshell beauty.

    For the makeup trial before the wedding, she took my feedback from the engagement photos H&MU and designed a bridal style for me that spoke "stunning" and "gorgeous!"

    By the time wedding morning arrived, I was so exhausted and you can see it in my face - eye bags, lackluster skin. Months leading up to the wedding have been stressful on my body and I just needed to look my best on this one day. Miranda transformed my tired face into the bride I've always dreamed about. While I was sitting in her makeup chair, we chatted, I took the time to close my eyes and rest and she kept me calm and distracted me from getting too emotional about the long day ahead. It was just like having family there with me during this process. She has a calm demeanor to her and I felt totally comfortable with her.

    When I attended one of my girlfriend's wedding, I absolutely loved her look. My friend is beautiful but I felt her make-up artist accentuated her beauty. When it was my turn to prepare for my wedding, she was the first person I asked on who her make-up artist was. It turns out to be Miranda! Right when I first met her, my fiance and I felt so comfortable. She was professional, sweet, and so easy to talk. I did feel nervous because I had my make-up done before but it is always a hit or miss. Miranda was so accommodating when I was trying to set up our make-up trial on the same day as my engagement shot. I really loved most of my make-up that day. She was so open when I told her a few small changes and she really helped me find my ideal look for my wedding day.

    For my hair, I have thick hair and tons of it. Although most like it, I was so worried my hair would look too puffy. However, Miranda did such an amazing job on my hair during the trial. It was absolutely how I envisioned it.

    I was a little bit nervous leading up to my wedding day since I needed my bridesmaid to be ready on time for the tea ceremony in the morning. Miranda was so helpful coming up with a schedule that worked with my schedule. On the wedding day, Miranda and Hyddie were early to our place. They set up so quickly and we were ready to roll. It was so funny because there were so many distractions with people running in and out of the room where Miranda was doing my make-up. I was so impressed she took everything with a big smile and we finished on time! All of my girls and my mom looked so beautiful. I was so happy with everyone's look. Thank you again Miranda! (Yes, I wrote this on her Yelp but I realized not everyone would use yelp)

    Everything about Miranda is on point, seriously.

    + She is organized and professional - Miranda is super responsive, reminds you about upcoming deadlines, and gives you good suggestions about wedding planning.

    + She listens to your needs - Miranda spent more time with me during my trial to find a lip shade I was happy with. And after I had the trial make up on for the entire day, I gave her feedback on what I thought about it. She REALLY listened because my wedding day make up was FREAKING STUNNING. This lady has some kind of magic!

    + Her technique is legit - She knows how to start simple, which is good for people who don't normally wear make up. Likewise, she knows how to build and incorporate alternative products to achieve a more dramatic look (especially useful if you want contouring or your eyes to pop). Most importantly, she uses sanitary practices! Miranda always cleaned her brushes after each person on my wedding day and made sure her hands were clean all the time.

    + She has a great personality - Miranda is sweet, kind, genuine, and easy-going. She was able to connect with all the people she put make up on during my wedding. Everyone always felt comfortable with her :)

    Honestly, I'm sad I won't be able to work with Miranda anymore and I have to go back to doing my own make up everyday :( Out of the 7 vendors I hired for my wedding, Miranda is hands down the BEST in every way.

    Miranda from Love and Artistry has truly been a pleasure to work with! She was very responsive from the very first email to the multitude that followed before my wedding date of June 4, 2016. She originally was only available to do my makeup when I first contacted her in April 2016, but as soon as her previous appointment had rescheduled, she kindly notified me & gave me the option of having my hair & makeup done by her! My original trial with Miranda did not include hair, but on the day of Miranda perfected the look that I had hoped for & my hair was gorgeous! Miranda is not only good at her artistry, but a sweet and considerate person that made the whole process and day much more comfortable and enjoyable. I would highly recommend her services to all family & friends!

    How you look on your wedding day is a big deal, and Miranda makes sure you feel and look your best! Miranda was organized, responsive, and super accomodating to some of our last minute changes. I ended up being a little indecisive about my hair and makeup after the trial, and Miranda patiently took the changes and executed them flawlessly on the wedding day. We also added another person at the last minute and she was cool with it. We had a total of 7 people getting hair and makeup, and Miranda enlisted two helpers, which ensured we finished on time. She also gives you a touch up kit just in case. Also, her pricing is very competitive.

    Beyond that, Miranda is such a sweetheart and made me truly feel like a princess! She really accentuates your natural beauty!! Thank you Miranda!!

    I am truly happy that I have found Miranda. The results in real life are as amazing as the pictures. She worked on my sister, mom and me for my wedding on 04/23/16. It's not just her work that's flawless, her costumer service is as well. She is so sweet and very comfortable to work with. The reason why communication is very important to me is because of my anxiety. She informed me on everything that she was doing and kept the conversation going. She went beyond of what I've asked for. Also, it was my first time wearing foundation! We decided to go with airbrush because it felt like we weren't wearing anything. Since she knew it was my first time wearing it, she did our make up perfectly! I couldn't ask for a better experience. Her time on responding to my emails are very quick.

    Searching for a makeup artist is probably every bride's biggest headache! I felt very lucky to be introduced to Miranda through a friend. Throughout our communications, she was very professional and accommodating. I was nervous about how the makeup would turn out for my wedding day since I almost never wear and I did not want to look totally different from myself. Miranda charged a very reasonable makeup trial, which turned out amazing. I rarely say "Wow" about how I look in the mirror until after I saw her work on me. At that moment, I told her, "PLEASE save the date for my wedding!" After the trial, I went to my bridal shower. My girlfriends were amazed at how pretty the makeup turned out.

    On my wedding day, Miranda was very punctual and well-prepared. She quickly set up her mini studio and started working on my bridesmaids hair. She was very nice about helping my bridesmaids look good. Without extra charge, she even offered to help my bridesmaid put on their extension lashes. I really appreciated her putting so much effort in making things perfect for us. She even helped me with fixing my tan lines on my chest and shoulder area. She spend extra time to help me match the colors so that I would look my best on my wedding day. When my special man came to pick me up, I left in a flash! But Miranda called us back quickly and was able to get a hold of my bridemaids. She wanted to make sure I had my mini-bag of touch up makeup that she prepared for me for the day. It was a special gift from her. It's hard not to love her!!! She cared about my makeup during my wedding day more than myself :) At the end of the day, I actually didn't need the touch up bag after all, because with her skills, the makeup lasted 10 hours. Yes, 10 hours! I went home after the long wedding day. I looked into the mirror, and there I was, still looking amazing with makeup and curls. I would definitely recommend Miranda as a makeup artist. It's well worth it!

    Miranda did my hair and make-up for one of my pre-wedding events and it turned out absolutely gorgeous. She also did my sister's hair and make-up for my wedding reception, which also turned out really beautiful. I especially liked the questionnaire she sent me beforehand about my preferences, skin type, pet peeves, etc. - it was really in depth and allowed me to give her a good picture of what I was looking for. She also is super friendly and made sure to make me feel at ease and comfortable while in her studio. Her pricing also was extremely reasonable, particularly in comparison to some other hair and make-up artists I'd looked at. I would definitely recommend her to other Indian brides and hopefully will be able to use her services again in the future!

    Miranda is awesome at what she does. She was extremely organized and on time. She did my hair and make up for my wedding day. She also did my mothers make up and one of my bridesmaid's hair. Miranda made me a beautiful bride. My mother and best friend looked awesome! I was extremely satisfied with her talent. I will definitely hire Miranda again.

    Make-Up and Hair was one of the aspects of my wedding that I was incredibly nervous about. I don’t wear very much make-up and have had nightmares of my make-up being done professionally for other events. I mean, I love the drag queen look, don’t get me wrong- but I didn’t want to look like that on the most important day of my life!

    My requirements were:

    Someone that was talented in both hair and makeup (let’s be real, that’s a huge relief when you only have to look for ONE artist!)
    Someone that had experience with Asian skin/hair. Filipinos are OILY! I needs make-up that would stay
    An artist who not only fit my budget, but whose talent was freakin amazing
    And lastly, someone who would listen to my wants/concerns regarding makeup/hair, consider my feedback and do their best to make me happy with the outcome.

    For months, I searched across the web, even got into the far pages of google (page 10 guys, page 10) and was getting stressed with each passing day- I could not find an artist that fit my criteria. I was losing hope, but then I turned to Facebook for recommendations and Miranda’s name came up. With just maybe 1 minute of looking through her portfolio, I knew I had found the one.

    During my trial, Miranda listened and quickly knew exactly what I was going for (natural tones, nothing too dramatic, etc). Guys- I’ve never felt more beautiful in my life! I loved my hair as well, but wanted to return for a 2nd trial for a different style. Miranda knew exactly what I was looking for and as soon as she brought the mirror to my face I beamed! Her products are top notch from the Airbrush make-up to the hairspray. She also gives you a little goody bag to help with any touch-ups- awesome! The goody bag consisted of a little jar of your exact lipstick, bobby pins, hairspray for any fly-aways, lip applicator, oil blotter, etc. Her 2nd artist that day, Caroline, also provided the same goody bags to my bridesmaids. Talk about going above and beyond!

    I worked with Miranda for my wedding in Aug 2015. She did an amazing job with my makeup and hair! I was completely happy with the results - she responded to all my suggestions and feedback. What I also loved about Miranda was her responsiveness and reliability!! She was always EARLY (to my trial and day of) and responded to my emails quickly.
    She was also able to put together an amazing team of artists for my 7 bridesmaids and 2 moms. We were on a tight schedule but the girls finished early. I would highly recommend Miranda for any special event or wedding!

    Miranda is great! She did my hair and makeup along with hair and makeup for my mom and grandma. She also brought in a hair artist and a make up artist to work on my bridesmaids, my mother in law, and my aunt.

    Months before the actual wedding day, she was very responsive and was able to create a timeline for when everyone was to get ready. She was very prompt in answering my questions, adjusting the schedule and how many other artists we needed as my bridal party was constantly changing their mind about whether they wanted certain services or not. I was never worried about not being able to get a hold of her and I was confident that she would be able to make certain adjustments given that I let her know in a reasonable amount of time.

    On the wedding day, Miranda and the other two artists came on time and began setting up their stations. Things went smoothly and they adjusted accordingly when some of my girls weren't in the room in time for their appointments. Everyone was ready in time for the ceremony and we weren't rushed at all.

    I appreciate that despite having to do hair and makeup of 2 other people before me, Miranda allotted more time to do my hair and makeup. Miranda made me feel so beautiful! I feel that her makeup enhanced my natural beauty rather than altered it. Also, my hair was great! It held up the entire day! I felt so bad taking off my makeup and taking down my hair at the end of the end because Miranda had done such a great job.

    Miranda is not only very professional, kind, and friendly, but very talented and excellent at what she does. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing makeup or hair services for any occasion!

    Miranda and her team were amazing and we (me and my bridal party) loved our makeup and hair. I had 7 bridesmaids which makes it hard to coordinate but Miranda made the process so easy and she was super flexible about any requests that we had. One of my bridesmaids was able to add on a makeup service on the day of the wedding since we had time and they were able to accommodate her. For all 8 of us, there were 3 makeup artists and one hairstyllist. This worked out very well because we were all able to finish on a timely manner. It was fun and relaxing to let Miranda and her team beautify us. Everyone loved their looks and it lasted the whole day. Miranda's prices are affordable and she is such a a sweet and caring person. You can tell that she has a passion for makeup and loves what she does. She listens to what you have concerns about and will make suggestions. My makeup trial with her was really fun too. She is a very talented makeup artist and I was so glad to have her beautify me on the day! My friend loved my makeup and hair that she's also using Miranda for her makeup and hair for her wedding day next year!

    Miranda was exactly who I was looking for after having a bridal hair trial gone bad with somebody else 1 month before my wedding. The moment we met, I knew she would be perfect! She has a great personality making it easy to work with her and her positive energy is very contagious (what every bride needs). On wedding day she was on time and everybody in the wedding party wanted to take her home as their personal hair artist! She was a great pleasure to work with on such a special day. I would highly recommend her for any occasion and will definitely keep her number for future events! Thank you for earning my trust when I felt hopeless and making me feel beautiful on the most important day of my life!! Xoxo
