    Loved Whit!

    I had a wonderful experience working with Whitney for my wedding day. Her hair and makeup technique is awesome and she really listened to what I envisioned. She is a wonderful person and made me feel so comfortable and pampered :) I highly recommend Whitney, she's really talented and such a sweetheart!

    Whitney did my hair and make up for a photo shoot/ suprise proposal and she is truly an Artist! She is not only super sweet, she really took her time in understanding my vision and transformed me even better then I had imagined! My hair and make up literally withstood a blizzard, it was amazing. She is seriously the best, you won’t be disappointed!

    Whit is the best!

    I am pretty comfortable with doing makeup and I think it is fun. That said, I had no interest in worrying about that mess on my wedding day. The stakes are far too high! So on one sleepless night I stumbled across Whit's IG through a series of clicks and was blown away by her work. So I reached out and crossed my fingers that she was available... I procrastinated.
    Lucky for me she was available! Securing the date was super straightforward and easy.
    The trial was so much fun. She is so easy to talk to and I instantly felt comfortable. We worked through my vision and tweaked things here and there and I left feeling like a million bucks! Fast forward to my wedding day... she outdid herself. Like, I did not think it could get any better but it did. We tweaked the look again (she is so patient and flexible) and I LOVED the way it turned out. I felt so confident and good in my skin that day. Oh and the make up was gorgeous in photos and lasted all day which is basically everything you want for your wedding day!

    Don't hesitate! Book Whit! She is the real deal and going places!

    Thanks Whit!!!

    There’s so much to love about Whitney – she’s (obviously) gorgeous, genuinely sweet, and most importantly, so incredibly talented! She provided hair and make up services for my destination elopement on the coast. She accommodated scheduling a trial well in advance since it would be the only time I’d be in the area prior to my wedding which I really appreciated. On the day of the wedding, she arrived early and was flexible with a last minute getting ready location change. Whitney took my feedback from our trial and nailed my hair and makeup on the day of – I felt so beautiful! My Mom wears almost no makeup day to day so she was hesitant about the outcome of her look. Whitney carefully listened to my Mom about what she did and didn’t want and created a natural make up look. The end result of her hair and makeup was stunning. I wish I was local because I would use Whitney for any hair and make up needs in the future in a heartbeat!

    Whitney was absolutely amazing. She made a last min opening for me to do my makeup for my enagagemt session. She came directly to my house for my own convience. She was so sweet to talk to and chat with the whole time. We played music, sang, laughed and had fun! My before and after was amazing and I was ultimately impressed. I will recommend her to everyone i meet! She will be traveling to Bend with me for my wedding in June!! Love you Whit!

    Whit truly does such amazing work! She did my hair and makeup for my senior photos and it was nothing short of perfection. She has an amazing personality, and prides herself in doing a stunning job every time she has a client. I would highly recommend her to anyone she is the best!

    Whitney was the only person I trusted with my hair and makeup for my wedding this past summer. When I found out my date was available, I was so thrilled. Whitney made the entire process so easy and painless, from her flexibility working out a time for my hair and makeup trial with my busy schedule, to the morning of the wedding, having such a fun and easy going attitude she just fit right in with my bridesmaids and everyone enjoyed her company. She absolutely slayed my hair and makeup and I was so happy with it! I would choose her again without question!

    Whitney was amazing! She did both my hair and makeup for a styled shoot and it turned out amazing! She truly has an eye for what she does. She is also the sweetest person you’ll ever meet.

    My mother has always been in awe with Whitney’s ability to apply makeup on everyone with such an amazing technique and care. My mother asked me shyly if I would ask Whitney if she could do her hair and makeup for her very special day. Despite Whitney being busy, she agreed with such a positive attitude and left my mother completely satisfied with her transformation. Thank you Whitney for everything, you’re truly such an amazing women and make up artist!

    Whitney did the makeup for my wedding on 1/1/17 and did an excellent job! She handled myself, my two bridesmaids, and both mothers makeup like a true professional. Our makeup looked just as good at the after party as it did in the beginning of the day. Highlighy recommend!

    Whitney and her hair + makeup squad are incredibly talented and professional women to work with. They added to the excitement and fun the morning of my wedding, and were exceptionally kind and patient towards my mother and mother-in-law. A couple of my bridesmaids had they hair and makeup done at 7:00 am and it was absolutely flawless and lasted throughout the day and night!! I felt just as I'd hoped for my wedding day, like the best and most beautiful version of myself. I would absolutely recommend Makeup By Whit for any special occasion.

    Whitney and her team are simply amazing! She did my makeup for two wedding ceremonies this fall and nailed it...everyone wanted to know who did our hair and makeup. Her attention to detail and perfection for every last detail is everything you want for your wedding day! I looked through a ton of artists in the Portland area and when I came across her work...I knew instantly I wanted her artistry for my big days! Get her before she is booked next summer ladies you will not regret looking like a 10 on your wedding day!

    Whitney is absolutely incredible! She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day, and my makeup turned out even better than my trial run! (Which was insane because the trial run was PERFECT) I absolutely recommend Whitney to anyone for any occasion. She is so professional yet so fun, and people were complimenting my makeup all night long.

    Whitney was phenomenal! Not only did she make me look and feel beautiful on my important day, but she made the day start out fun and relaxed. It set the tone for the rest of the day and I couldn't have been more thankful to find Whitney. I would recommend her to anyone and use her again!!! Loved her!!

    Whitney's work is stunning! She made myself and all of my bridesmaids look and feel our absolute best! One of the best aspects is that we still looked like ourselves, but with flawless skin and just the right amount of pizazz.

    Whitney is incredible to work with! She is incredibly talented and listens carefully to her clients’ wants. She’s done my makeup and hair multiple times (I’m very, very picky!) and she has knocked it out of the park every time. I can not recommend her enough. I’ve used other well known stylist who haven’t come close to her ability.

    Whitney is AMAZING! I cannot say enough about her, she was absolutely wonderful. She did my makeup, my mothers and my bridal party and did an absolutely fantastic job. Everyone loved her and she made everyone looked beautiful by just enhancing their best features. From the trial, to emailing beforehand, to the day of, she was a pleasure to work with. She was the only makeup artist that was flexible in trying more than one look for my eyeshadow because I couldn't figure out which way to go. She is genuinely funny, bubbly, extremely warm/nice person and helped me stay calm on my big day. I couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist for the most memorable day of my life, please use her!

    I had my makeup and hair done for my senior pictures, unfortunately there wasn't a category for it, and she was amazing! Not only did she do an amazing job on my hair and makeup, she's a great person to work with. She was so nice, and I had a lot of fun.

    Whitney is a true pro and definitely is well worth it enhancement to any event! She did my hair and make-up for my 80’s themed birthday bash and I felt amazing! You’d be crazy to not hire her for your next event.
