Lilly and Cody's May 2025 wedding was a beautiful celebration set in the historic gardens of Meridian House in Washington DC. The day began at Lyle DC Hotel in Dupont Circle, where Lilly spent a calm and intentional morning getting ready with her family. It was an honor to be a part of such a meaningful and beautifully curated garden wedding in Washington DC. -Hi there!

My bride actually had two bridal previews with me! Kristina thrives as an interior designer in her day job so amazing ideas and inspiration of all sorts are always floating around. Sometimes, everything looks so good that it is difficult to choose! My job as your hair and makeup artist is to collaborate, brainstorm, and refine your look so that you feel like your best version. This is exactly what Kristina and I did for her big day! -Hi there! I'm Olivia and I help brides fe

One of my core values is intentionality so being purposeful with every step in the process is super important to me. It is even better when clients value intentionality too, so we can create the best and prettiest look for them! From the start, I appreciated the complete trust that Vienna put in me as her wedding hair and makeup artist. In her initial inquiry form, Vienna shared that she was looking for someone who was "relaxed and stress-free who [could] deliver a natural,

In this post, I am going to break down Claira's incredibly kind and thoughtful review with photos so that you can live through a little bit of her experience! She shared about her experience from when we first spoke to the final touch up- so I thought it was fitting that I use her voice to walk you through her story and experience! -Hi there!

What I love most about working with brides over their wedding weekend is the collaboration, trust, and intention that goes into every detail of their hair and makeup looks. Each bride has their own style, rhythm, and way of celebrating, and my goal is always to create a beauty experience that is personalized and reflects exactly who they are! Michelle's wedding weekend was the perfect example of this. From our first preview to the final touch ups for her reception, we curated

Melissa knew exactly what she was looking for when it came to wedding makeup. In short, she wanted makeup that was natural, glowy, and something that would make her feel like her best version. -Hi there!

My most recent bride, Justine, was truly a joy to work with. On our discovery call, she shared, "getting ready is one of my favorite things to do, so I really just want to cherish this time with my family." It was very important for her to have an artist who would help her have the most enjoyable morning surrounded by her favorite people. In addition to this, Justine valued someone who would collaborate with her and play around with different looks to make sure her final look

Joanne didn't know it at the time but she wanted to book bridal hair and makeup in addition to peace of mind. Her wedding at Woodberry Kitchen was a reflection of her values-- intimate, thoughtful, and full of heart. From our very first phone call, we connected over her engagement in Portugal, her vision for an effortless look, and her wanting a day centered around family, friends, and having a good time. Her vision aligned so naturally with my style, and I couldn't wait to

What I love about hair and makeup is that I am able to get to know my brides on a deeper level. During the process, we'll chat about who you are, your hair and makeup vision, and any concerns or worries that you have for your big day. My goal for each of my brides is to make sure that they have a seamless yet fun beauty experience, address any issues I can, and be transparent about the process. -Hi there!

One of my favorite parts of my job is getting to know each of my brides on a personal level. My favorite brides are the ones who inspire me. Brittney was one of those brides. I loved working with her because she truly has such a warm soul and can light up any room she enters. -Hi there! I'm Olivia and I help brides feel like their best self in the most comfortable way. My hair and makeup style is natural, authentic, and inspired by soft glam. I'm located in Baltimore and Conn

The most important skill a hair and makeup artist can have is not about the hair and makeup. You read that correctly. There are so many incredible artists. But there are also many dissatisfied clients. That's why I truly believe the most valuable skill is an artist is can have is active listening. Many times, brides are looking at beauty options for their wedding day only to realize that at the trial, the way they envisioned their look was not at all how it was executed. Fre

Not all of my brides are born with perfect skin. For those who are-- count yourself lucky!! Many work super hard to achieve the skin you see on my Instagram profile and portfolio. Sometimes, I post photos of bridesmaids in my stories after a wedding, and if you look closely, you can see that makeup on them looks just a little different than on their bride. It still looks great but the difference between bridesmaids' versus brides' makeup is the skin underneath and the months
