HOW CAN I BOOK YOUR SERVICES?

HOW LONG WILL MY SERVICES TAKE?
For bridal hair and makeup services, two to two and a half hours, depending on your look. For bridal party members, 45 minutes for makeup and 45 minutes for hair.

DO YOU HAVE A TEAM?
I work independently and do not directly hire any secondary artists or assemble teams for large parties. If your party exceeds what I can accommodate in the requested time, I can refer you to a number of trusted teams that may be available to help.
HOW DOES TIMING WORK ON THE WEDDING DAY?
I will create a detailed timeline for your wedding day services once we know what time you need to be ready by. This timeline includes detailed time slots for each person's services and also outlines how each person should prepare for their appointment.
WHAT PRODUCTS DO YOU USE? DO YOU SELL MAKEUP?
All of the items utilized in my kit are of professional quality and have been carefully selected for their ability to photograph beautifully while still looking natural. All of the products that I use are long-wearing, and water resistant. For hair, I used a mix of salon professional products from Amika, Redken, and Kenra. For makeup, I use a variety of camera-ready products from brands including (but not limited to) Makeup Forever, MAC, Laura Mercier, Tarte, Ben Nye, Temptu, and Stila. I do not sell makeup but I am more than happy to recommend products and where you can purchase them.
DO YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH WOMEN OF COLOR?
Yes, I work on anyone with a face and have experience painting all skin tones and types.
DO YOU OFFER ADDITIONAL SERVICES?
Yes! In addition to your wedding day, I am also available for engagement photos, boudoir sessions, and rehearsal dinner services. These sessions are highly requested and are a great addition to your bridal services.
HOW LONG WILL MY MAKEUP & HAIR LAST?
All day! I use makeup primers and setting sprays along with waterproof products to ensure that everything stays put through tears and sweat. If there are any touch-ups that need to be done, I will do them before leaving. If you want us to stick around till after your ceremony because you are changing looks before the reception, you can pay additionally for each hour starting after all services have been rendered.
MAY I DO A BRIDAL PREVIEW BEFORE I COMMIT?
Absolutely! I want you to be 100% sure of your decision. Choosing vendors that you like and work well with is the most important part in planning your wedding. I will need a minimum of 2 hours for the hair and makeup preview or 1.5 hours for hair or makeup and I will arrive 15 mins prior to set up.
IS A PREVIEW APPOINTMENT REQUIRED?While I always recommend having a preview of your bridal look before the big day, the addition of a preview is not required to book.
HOW LONG DOES A PREVIEW TAKE AND WHAT DOES IT ENTAIL?
The Preview is where we will go over all the details of the wedding, decide on a look that fits well within your style and theme, and make any adjustments if necessary. We will take pictures of the completed look and go over the contract if you’re ready to sign and secure your date.
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK MY PREVIEW?
Anywhere from 3-6 months out from your wedding date is recommended, or at least after you have solidified major details like the look & feel, dress, and accessories. You’ll want to make sure you have an idea of the look you might want your hair and makeup to look like before we meet for the preview.
SHOULD I BRING ANYTHING TO MY PREVIEW?
You are welcome to bring hair/makeup inspiration photos of styles you like, a photo of your dress, your veil, and any hair accessories you might be using.
HOW SHOULD I COME TO MY PREVIEW?
With a clean, makeup-free face, along with your hair down (washed and dried from the day before). You may also want to wear a top color similar to your dress to help you visualize the look.
WHY DON’T YOU DO PREVIEWS ON THE DAY OF MY ENGAGEMENT SESSION?
It’s best to separate the Engagement and preview sessions on two different days. The preview is meant to focus on your specific wedding day look which is not necessarily the same look you will want in your engagement photos as you may want to make adjustments.
