Bethany ⚡️

I first met Bethany when I did her makeup for her bestie Mary’s wedding, and now it was her turn to be the bride — with Mary by her side once again 🥹

After trying a few eye options, we kept the lower lash line soft and natural to keep everything bright and fresh, with just the right amount of definition.

For the skin, we kept that gorgeous natural glow whilst using oil-controlling products to keep everything looking fresh and flawless throughout the day, with a little pressed powder for the T-zone when needed.

Such a special morning to be part of 🤍

Gail ⚡️

Gail has always loved emphasis on the eyes, so why change that up on her wedding day? ✨

We added a few individual lashes to really set those beautiful eyes off, paired with soft, lit-from-within skin and the prettiest rosy cheeks for a fresh, romantic finish.

Keeping her makeup true to her, just elevated for the occasion. 👰🏼‍♀️✨

A beautiful full-circle moment with my gorgeous bride Robyn 🤍✨

Years ago, I had the pleasure of doing makeup for Robyn when she was a bridesmaid at her sister-in-law’s wedding, and fast forward to now… she booked me for her own wedding day the moment she secured her date at the stunning Cornhill. 🥹🤍

It was such a privilege to be part of her special day and bring out her natural beauty with soft, glowing makeup that felt completely her. Robyn was absolutely radiant — that beautiful bridal glow was shining from within! ✨

The sweetest part of this job is seeing familiar faces come back for such special milestones. Thank you for trusting me with your bridal glam, Robyn. 🤍

Laura ⚡️

Laura actually became a client of mine all the way back when I worked at Urban Decay in around 2018 — back when the makeup world was all about glitter cut creases! ✨

So to have her come back all these years later and book me for her wedding day, without even having a trial, and put her complete trust in my style of makeup to make her feel beautiful from the inside out… it honestly meant so much to me.

And that’s exactly what we achieved. 🥹🤍

What a gorgeous bride, inside and out. The energy from you and all your girls was absolutely ecstatic, and I had the most amazing morning getting you all ready.

Thank you for trusting me with such a special part of your day, Laura. It was such a pleasure to be there and see everything come together. 🤍✨

Congratulations, beautiful bride! 🥂

That feeling when your full makeup is done and all that’s left to do is take out the pin curls 😍✨
