If you are currently mapping out your bridal look, here are the makeup details I am absolutely loving right now:
● Glowy, radiant skin
● Petal pink glossy lips for a soft, fresh finish
● Subtle eyeshadow with just a hint of shimmer—nothing overly sparkly
● Soft, but naturally defined brows
● Individual lashes that perfectly enhance without overpowering the delicate eye makeup

Which of these details is a non-negotiable for your own wedding day? Let me know in the comments!

Trial vs. Wedding Day!

Your bridal trial is the time for us to come together, map out your entire vision, and dial in your specific look. We figure out exactly what works for you so there is zero guesswork on the morning of your wedding.

When the big day finally arrives, your only job is to sit back, relax, and let a professional take care of executing that look. You deserve to fully enjoy your morning knowing you are going to
look and feel your absolute best.

It was such a pleasure working with the beautiful Lianne Masquelier to bring her vision to life at her trial and on her wedding day.

Brides-to-be, what is the number one detail you want to make sure you nail down during your trial? Is it the lip combo? The complexion? The eye look? Let’s chat.

Have you picked up your copy of the San Diego Style Weddings Magazine summer issue yet?

If not, consider this your final reminder because the new fall and winter issue is releasing very soon. Having my work featured on the cover of this summer edition has been a huge highlight, and I feel incredibly fortunate to share that my work will also be inside the upcoming issue!

I have absolutely no idea what image was chosen for the next cover, so I will be waiting right alongside you to see it when it finally hits the stands.

I adored all of my wonderful summer brides this year, and I am so looking forward to working with my upcoming fall ones.

Taking a second to step out from behind the brushes today. We just crossed 2,850 of you here, and I am so incredibly grateful for this growing community. Next stop: 2,900!

These sneak peeks from Alexandra’s wedding day look like an absolute dream.

From the quiet morning moments getting ready to the stunning architecture and backdrops at Park Hyatt Aviara everything about this celebration feels so romantic and incredibly chic.

For Alexandra’s bridal look, we wanted to ensure her makeup felt just as sophisticated. We kept her skin soft and radiant, highlighting her features with a natural elegance that perfectly matched the energy of the day.

The beautiful Stephanie Smith was absolutely glowing for her intimate courthouse wedding! Her bridal vision was all about fresh, radiant skin and a soft pink lip to perfectly complement her
naturally beautiful features.

It was such a joy to spend the morning getting her ready for her happily ever after.
