I’ve always enjoyed helping people feel their best and right from an early age I loved applying makeup and creating hairstyles on anyone that would sit still long enough. As an adult I’ve found many different ways to do this and makeup is a huge part of that for me. It's such an incredible honor to help women feel beautiful and pampered for their special occasions, be that bridal, school balls, graduations or family photo shoots.
I trained at The National School of Aesthetics here in Christchurch in 2008 as a Beauty Therapist and then retrained at the Kristen Stewart School of makeup in 2012. I was asked to do my first wedding not long after this and I've been practicing makeup ever since. I would say that weddings are my favorite but I also enjoy smaller groups and one on ones. My style is very soft glam, I’m not a huge follower of trends.
Now I always feel its important to mention that I am a mother of three. I work hard for my family so if you book an appointment please honor it, no shows will not get a second appointment. For bridal trials and single bookings I will often accommodate you at my home so please be aware that there may be a child or 2 popping in and out. For weddings and larger bookings I am mobile so although I'm based on the western side of Christchurch I happily travel Canterbury wide and I'm always happy to discuss traveling further afield.
I absolutely LOVE what I do and would love to chat about any special event you have coming up.
