Kim Baker Beauty is all about helping people feel like their best self, inside and out. This is so much more than makeup. We don't take it lightly that we are the first people you are with on your wedding day. How we make you feel is our top priority.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wedding was 10-02-2022 at Temescal Beach House in Oakland. Kim did my hair and make-up as well as the hair and make-up of my mom and 2 bridesmaids. Throughout the process-from my very first phone/video call with her, until the wedding day- Kim was kind, responsive, professional, and completely fantastic. She's genuine and calming which for me, was exactly what I wanted. I do not wear make-up or do my hair so this was the aspect of my day-of wedding prep that I was most worried about. I didn't want heavy make-up or to not look like myself. I also didn't have a pinterest board or a ton of my own ideas because that world (of hair and make-up) is intimidating to me and just not a language I speak. Kim was SO good at giving me options, talking me through things, and REALLY listening to my preferences. She was adaptive and sincere throughout the process and I felt SO beautiful on my wedding day. I looked like me, but leveled up a few notches, and my friends and family recognized me. The hair and make-up also lasted all day which was awesome. Kim is seriously the best (also queer friendly which was great). I cannot recommend her more highly.

My work can be described as elevated, intentional, and polished. Whether I am working with a bride who prefers to look more like their natural selves or a bride who is a sucker for full glam, I strive to create a luxurious experience for my clientele on their wedding day. Customizing your look with even the most subtle details can prove to be so impactful in enhancing your beauty. I can’t take all of the credit though! Your beauty inspires me— And at the core of it all, your own beautiful face is the roadmap to creating the most elevated version of yourself.

For those of you planning a wedding, or any event for that matter, there are countless difficult decisions that need to be made. And, a lot of the times you worry about whether you’ll make the right choice. Well with Raven, it was one of the easiest choices that I made during my wedding planning. Raven was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was professional, communicative, helpful, and a complete sweetheart! I had her booked to just do the makeup for me and one of my bridesmaids. So I truly appreciated the fact that she made time to do my mother-in-law’s makeup last minute as well, and she was extremely gracious about it. Trust me when I say this: you will not regret choosing Raven for your makeup/beauty needs.

I can’t wait to discover all the stunning wedding venues the PNW has to offer! When I'm not doing hair, you can find me trying a new coffee shop, making kombucha, or hiking with my husband and our dog, Livia. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

April did my hair for my wedding in June, 2022. I left my trial feeling even more excited about my wedding because she was amazing at helping me figure out the right style for me - to feel like myself, but a little fancier. I loved the style she created. On my wedding day, April brought such a calm presence to the room. Everyone in my wedding party was thrilled with their hair styles and enjoyed getting the chance to sit in her chair. I absolutely loved my wedding day hair - it was exactly as we'd planned, lasted all night (through some serious dancing) and was comfortable the entire event. April is an absolute expert and I'd trust her completely with my hair for any occasion!

Moderne Beauty did the hair and make-up for my wedding. I am pretty picky about my hair and makeup, and don’t generally like the way I look when made up.

I felt glamorous but still able to recognize myself in the mirror! She is so talented and would absolutely work with her again. Monina was great to work with, and I enjoyed coming to the studio and had two amazing facials. She also helped coordinate everything on the day-of, and I could not believe how efficient the staff was while still being great at their jobs! They finished 8 ladies in 4 hours, and I think everyone looked beautiful. We did not feel rushed, and had time to enjoy ourselves. My hair and makeup still looked great 12 hours later!
