Erin was absolutely amazing to work with. She did two styles for me. One was for a promise ceremony and the other for my wedding. I met her by chance and I’m SO glad I did! After seeing her work for the first event I immediately hired her for the wedding. She is lightning fast and pays so much attention to detail. I would hire her over and over again. I’m most sad that I don’t have events coming up where I can have her do my hair! Hire her. She is just perfect.

Deatrice (New Found Beauty Makeup Artistry) provided make-up for myself, my bridesmaid and my mother. I couldn’t have been happier with the results, and I know everyone else was equally satisfied. She has a wonderful eye for color, respectfully listens to your requests, and moves throughout the getting-ready period of the day with a calm, collected stress-free attitude. She was on time and ahead of schedule. I highly recommend her – she’s worth every penny.

Her main goal is for clients to look in the mirror and recognize their reflection and feel like an elevated but natural version of themselves.

Her team had a set pre made schedule for each of my girls, listened to their beauty visions, extremely friendly, and even my pickiest bridesmaids were blown away and obsessed with how they looked! Also, due to my venues schedule, we had to get ready at my house and her team brought their own table/chairs and left my house cleaner than it was before they arrived.

          Hi! My name is Alaina and I have been a makeup artist professionally for just over 10 years and also have been a licensed Esthetician in NC since 2010- Proud Aveda Alumni! I LOVE meeting new people and helping them feel and look their best, while also making it a comfy and safe experience for you! When you LOOK good, you FEEL good. And I truly believe that. I specialize in natural bridal and special event makeup, and have been known to go a little crazy for Halloween too. Fun facts: I'm a busy dog mom of 4, and when I'm not doing makeup looks, you could probably find me rappelling down a mountain or hiking on a trail.

          I have had the privilege to see this woman grow from being just a little girl with a glint in her eye. She has always been curious and loved making people feel good. She is quite the professional.

You're already beautiful, I'll just help you shine!

          Theresa did an absolutely incredible job with make-up on my wedding day! She worked alone and was able to do make-up for myself, 2 bridesmaids, and 2 mothers all before it was time for photos! Not only that, but she did an incredible job and all 5 of us were so happy with the looks she gave us. From the beginning, I loved the way she highlighted someone's natural beauty with make-up. I loved the look she did for me because it was very natural, yet made me feel bridal and beautiful and put together! She prepped the skin beforehand and everything was very soothing and clean feeling! (I have very sensitive skin and was concerned about this, but it was no problem for her at all, and my skin felt so fresh and like it was glowing!). All of her make-up also felt very light and effortless - I could barely tell I was wearing make-up and the lashes also did not bother me. Also, I cried a majority of the day, and despite that fact the make-up lasted all throughout the day and night!! She was very kind all throughout the day, and made casual conversation with all of us - we all felt comfortable with her! I highly recommend Theresa for all your make-up needs on your wedding day, prom, or other event! She is wonderful! Thank you, Theresa, for everything!

          Liz has been a licensed esthetician and makeup artist for nine years now. Before becoming a bridal makeup artist she was a library assistant and dabbled in art for over 10 years! She’s married to the love of her life and a mama to a beautiful baby girl. Liz’s background gives her a unique perspective on each makeup she does, and she loves to keep you laughing! Lashes and laughter that’s all we need! Based in North Carolina, Liz will help you customize the makeup of your dreams!

          Liz at Dark Hearts Artistry made my wedding so special with her wit, uplifting energy, and talent. When I first reached out to her, she got back to me quickly and was transparent about her process, pricing, and even gave me an example timeline for the amount of people I was planning to get ready with. She also connected me with a hair stylist who is wonderfully talented at working with naturally curly hair. Liz took the time to get to know me over the year and would remember small details that most people forget, like my dog's name or a show my Autistic sister likes to watch. She is a big proponent of building and maintaining meaningful connections with others––and her makeup is a lovely reflection of this intention. For my wedding, she created a beautiful makeup look that felt lightweight on my skin but still glamorous, taking the details from our makeup trials that felt right and adding her own unique twist. Before starting that day, she said, "I have something in mind that I feel is very you. Do you trust me?" When I looked in the mirror afterward, I saw a reflection of myself that only Liz could enhance. I felt very "me," comfortable in my own skin and (as a person with anxiety) not nervous in the slightest to show my face. Liz, Lyndsay (hair stylist), and Marie (hair/makeup) did a wonderful job at making my bridesmaids and family members look and feel their best while also capturing their inner beauty. While my primarily Latina group can be notorious for being particular, they absolutely loved their hair and makeup. Dark Hearts Artistry was gracious with everyone and put us all in a wonderful, spirited mood!

From the first time meeting her at the trial, she put me at ease, listened to my wants and don’t wants , and completely nailed the vision I had with little inspo pictures to go from in terms of my makeup. I was very particular about my eyebrows and she worked her magic and they never looked better ! Hazel was such a good sport during a hectic wedding morning. I was told by other hairstylist the look I wanted for my hair couldn’t be done due to the heaviness and surplus of hair I have , but she KILLED IT !!!! She is kind, funny and so very talented! 20/10!
