    great makeup artist and person!

    Kara was absolutely fantastic. She listened, was a calming presence and did an excellent job on my makeup (even managing some tears). I would absolutely recommend her to a friends/family.

    Wedding makeup

    Kara was absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to anyone in the Asheville area. We had our wedding in Green Mountain, NC and she drove out there with no hesitation. She is friendly and professional and warm and listens to everything you want. If I could pay her everyday to do my makeup I would!! Everyone was blown away at the work she did. She makes you look natural but with makeup. You don't look like anything is caked on. When I do maternity photos I'm definitely going to use her again. She was so amazing I'm literally thinking of any event I can come up with just so she will do my makeup!
    Kara, thank you so much! I loved my look and working with you!! I will definitely be in touch for maternity makeup!! I will upload photos once I get them in!!

    Kara was awesome! She came recommended through my planner, Willow Event Designs, and was so easy to work with. She came up for a makeup trial earlier in the week and was very open to my thoughts and feedback on how to adjust for the weekend. I felt comfortable and beautiful on my wedding day thanks to Kara!

    Wedding day makeup for bride, mother of the bride, and bridesmaids

    Kara is wonderfully creative, kind, and fun to work with. More importantly, she is responsive, timely, and proactive, all of which are significant to a bride. I had no idea how I wanted my wedding makeup to look, but after a few (probably overgeneralized) descriptions, Kara NAILED IT. I couldn't have been more pleased and hands down recommend her for your engagement photo shoots, bridal portraits, or big day!

    Kara is amazing! She made me feel like a princess on my wedding day and made my bridesmaids look even more beautiful than they already are. I wish she could do my makeup everyday. She really is the best. I highly recommend Kara 100% to anyone looking to have their makeup done for any event.

    Kara is Amazing!!! She did my makeup for my engagement pictures, and my wedding. She is great at everything from soft natural makeup, to super glam. She is very professional and was so fun the day of my wedding. I would definitely use Kara for any of your makeup needs!

    Kara is amazing! Never in a million years did i think anyone could make me love a portrait of myself, but she did. She is great at knowing what you want and what will look best and making it happen. 1. Portrait of me 2. Kara did several of my bridesmaids makeup as well!

    I loved my entire experience with Kara. She made all of my makeup dreams come true on my wedding day, and for my bridal portraits. More than impressed and happy to always look back on pictures. Thank you Kara! You are the BEST, hands down.

    Kara was absolutely wonderful to work with- from the trial to the day of my wedding. She made me feel like a million bucks and I look back on my wedding photos absolutely in love with my look for the day. I can not recommend her enough!
