With over 10 years in the beauty industry and 500+ weddings under my belt, I've learnt a thing or two about making people look and feel their best in front of a camera. But great shoot results take more than a good makeup application. They take an understanding of the brief, the people, the creative direction and all those little details that bring a vision to life.
I've worked across weddings, creative shoots and freelance production, so I'm just as happy getting stuck into the creative process as I am making sure every last hair is in place. I love working with a team, bringing ideas to life and making sure the talent in front of the camera feels comfortable, confident and camera-ready.
What you can expect:
-
Professional hair and makeup application tailored to your brief, brand and creative direction.
-
Looks that complement the talent, wardrobe, styling and overall vision.
-
Thoughtful skin preparation and product selection for camera-ready results.
-
Professional hairstyling, finishing and those all-important final checks.
-
On-set touch-ups and maintenance where included in the booking.
-
A collaborative, adaptable and solutions-focused approach.
-
Clear communication, good energy and respect for production timelines.
Whether it's one person in front of the camera or a whole team of talent, I believe the details matter. The goal is always to make the process feel easy, the talent feel great and the final result look even better.
