    Exactly what I wanted

    I was looking all over Rochester for a makeup artist who could do the subtle, natural, slightly vintage look I wanted - everything I could find seemed overdone. Then I found Nicole and immediately knew she was the right fit. There were some 20s-30s stylistic touches to my wedding aesthetic, and she added in perfect era-appropriate details without me even needing to ask. The makeup looked great both in photos and in person, and lasted all night. She was easy to work with, responsive, and surprisingly affordable to book. I you want a subtle, natural, thoughtfully designed look that photographs well (but still looks like you!) then I highly recommend Nicole.

    She is so patient and compatible with ANYTHING you're looking for to make your event perfect. She is tremendously talented. I have used her twice. Once with a previous wedding (I was the bride), and 5 bridesmaids. PERFECT MAKEUP! Then recently (years later), I'm getting married again and she did my engagement photo makeup! Absolutely stunning. Light, sweet but so impressive.

    Nicole is an amazing make up artist - true talent and professionalism. She is timely, personable, and incredibly gifted at her craft. She executed everything I wanted perfectly and even better than what I had imagined the final outcome could be, I am so happy with her services!

    I went to elementary, middle and high school with Nicole and have known her since we're 10 years old. I've seen her love for fashion and makeup develop from when we're quite young and have seen the amazing work she's done on makeup for many of our friends' weddings over the years. When it was time for my Big Day I only trusted her with my face. She traveled 10 hours to be there just to do my makeup and hair. She spent so much time and energy and at the end it didn't even look like I was wearing makeup. It was magazine-worthy work that I wish I could replicate every day.

    My wedding was also super tense with a lot of drama. While I've known Nicole for many, many years we aren't particularly close. Nevertheless, she provided me with a lot of calm and was a great buffer between myself and people I wanted to avoid.

    Let me start with: I am *not* make-up inclined, so the thought of trying to do it myself was terrifying. I also had little idea of what I wanted to look like day of before I talked through it with Nicole. She saved my butt! Not only did she help me decide what look(s) we wanted for the day, but she was very flexible. Our wedding was held in Bethlehem, PA, and she was willing to make the drive out for us (about 5 hours from Rochester). To make her drive worth it, I decided to book for myself as well as the three bridesmaids.

    Nicole was on time, got set up quick, and worked around our lunch schedule, too. She was super efficient and everything looked awesome. Plus, it lasted the WHOLE day. We had a 1920's Art Deco theme, and she was able to work the make up to look theme appropriate, but NOT "costume-y".
