I met Tia when I went to do a makeup trail for my wedding day! My sister in law recommended her, since I loved the makeup she had on her baby shower! At my makeup trail she was very patient with me, very kind and made lots of conversation! On my wedding day, lots of this went wrong, I was stressed, filled with anxiety. Tia, was patient and so reassuring everything was going to be ok and was very calming in that situation she was able to get me calmed down. She kept checking in on me and tried to get me laughing and smiling again! My makeup stayed all day long after partying too hard! I didn’t even take it off at night (I know that’s gross) and it was still going strong! If that doesn’t tell you how good the quality is i don’t know what will! The third time I went back to Tia was for my birthday this year! She absolutely killed the game again of course! For my wedding makeup we went for clean girl makeup this time we went dark and bold Smokey look! Tia killed it as per usual! I’m not the most confident person, but when Tia does her magic it makes me feel 1000 times more confident! 100% recommend Tia!

Shannon absolutely slayed my wedding day up-do, and was such a sweetie! She also crushed every single one of my bridesmaids' styles AND they stayed all night, even through the massive rager we had on the dance floor of the reception (photos from the last hour attached as evidence so you don't have to take my word for it!!). I actually have never been to a wedding where the bride's (horror) or some bridesmaids' hair hasn't fallen out before the ceremony even started. You will never have to worry about that with Shannon. She recently moved to Colorado and has reasonable prices as well. BOOK HER!!!!

Jenn was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding day! She spent 3 hours with me during our trial, creating intricate braids and putting flowers all over my hair as I had asked (I was going for boho/fairytale vibes, it was a barn wedding after all!). I ended up changing my hairstyle a bit from the trial to only one side up, so that the other side could swoop down with more volume as I was used to. I also decided that I wanted the flowers pinned in a cluster instead of all through my hair. Jenn was very creative and adaptive, and the final style was absolutely gorgeous. With the killer makeup (natural and elegant), I felt like a princess on my wedding day. She also did a beautiful job with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law’s hairstyles. Perhaps most importantly, Jenn is a real sweetheart and put me at ease the morning of my wedding. It was really helpful to have that easygoing, positive energy on a very overwhelming morning. I can’t recommend Jenn enough!! (Posted photos of both my trial & wedding day hair/makeup—both looks were amazing!)

I excel in listening to the needs of the bride while providing her with impeccable makeup and a positive attitude. When I’m not doing makeup, I enjoy spending time with my husband, daughter, and dogs.

I have olive complexion and was worried about finding an MUA that would know how to match my undertones and finding the right colors for shadows, blush, etc. Nicole did a wonderful job! She asked me what kind of look I was going for and for any inspiration I had. I had some tweaks after the trial and she so kindly made adjustments for the big day. She nailed the look! There was a rainstorm and tornado on the day of my wedding and makeup stayed on the entire day and night. I was flawless!
