Why did you want to get into the wedding industry?
Connection is everything to me, and in every form. I don't think it is has to necessarily be marriage between two people, but just witnessing and being a part of such an important story is so fulfilling for me. This type of celebration is full of that, between parents, siblings, friends, etc. That and I just can't get away from anything artistic in life. If I weren't a makeup artist, I'd still be designing or creating art elsewhere. I love telling stories with color.
What makes your business stand out?
Having a makeup business in Seattle, I would say my business stands out with my experience and love for all skin tones. Whether you're Irish, Puerto Rican, Asian, African, or any beautiful mix in-between- rest assured I have a gorgeous look for you and we will have a blast creating it.
Tell us about your personal style when it comes to your craft?
I would say the base of what I do is always very timeless. I want things to last all day, I want your photos to turn out amazing. I do always try to add a dash of sexiness with everything I do though. A little edge to each look so it feels exciting, and creates that little spark in your belly. I also like to have a good time getting there. I love to connect with my clients and have fun during the process.
Favorite part of working with couples?
Taking them to the next level. I have quite a few clients that don't wear makeup regularly, or have not necessarily thought of themselves as "sexy". I love creating a look that they not only feel comfortable with, but are excited about. I love handing them the mirror and seeing their first reaction of "Is that ME?!". I always know we nailed it at that point.
Favorite part of wedding day?
Brides with their moms or grandmas. So much joy in those tiny moments.
Advice to couples in selecting a vendor in your category?
Without talking to them, fall in love with their portfolio. That will narrow it down to 2-3 people. After that, make it a point to chat with them and see who you truly connect with the most. Connection with your artist is insanely important and I think it's overlooked quite often. If you aren't connected to the person who is in charge of your look on your Wedding Day, that is where mis-communications can take place and really put a damper on things. Trust your gut!
