Hi! I’m Jessica, the owner and artist behind Black Wolf Esthetics & Lash, an Indigenous-owned wedding beauty studio located in Jamesville, NY. With over 19 years of professional experience in the beauty industry, I specialize in bridal makeup artistry, skin preparation, and event glam that brings out your natural features while elevating your entire look.
Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a full-scale wedding, I create timeless, custom makeup looks that are designed to enhance your confidence and photograph beautifully. My goal is to help every client look and feel like the most elevated version of themselves — while keeping the process relaxed, efficient, and fun.
At Black Wolf Esthetics, I offer:
• On-location bridal makeup services across Central NY and beyond
• Bridal trials to fine-tune your perfect look ahead of your big day
• Makeup for engagement sessions, rehearsal dinners, and boudoir shoots
• Wedding prep skincare treatments, including facials, dermaplaning, and light chemical peels
• Brow shaping, lash lifts, tinting, and permanent makeup to help you wake up photo-ready
• A comfortable, clean studio space for in-salon services if preferred
I’m proud to provide services for all skin tones and all identities, with a focus on creating a calm, inclusive, and luxurious experience. I understand how important your wedding day is — I work with intention, skill, and a whole lot of heart.
In addition to working with brides across New York State, I’ve also been selected as the lead makeup artist for the only fully Indigenous design team walking in both New York and Los Angeles Fashion Week 2025. This opportunity is not only a career milestone for me but also a reflection of the passion and professionalism I bring to every client I work with, whether it’s backstage at fashion week or in your bridal suite.
Black Wolf Esthetics & Lash is a one-artist operation, so you’ll always know who you’re working with from day one. I book a limited number of weddings per month to ensure that each bride receives the attention and care they deserves. If you’re still looking for a photographer or custom gown designer, I also work closely with creatives I trust and can make referrals for wedding photography and custom bridal fashion.
Now booking weddings for 2025 and 2026. I can’t wait to connect, hear more about your vision, and help you feel beautiful on your big day — because you deserve nothing less.

Hi, I’m Jessica, the artist behind Black Wolf Esthetics & Lash—an Indigenous-owned beauty studio located in Jamesville, NY. I’ve been working in the beauty industry for over 18 years, and I specialize in bridal makeup, hair styling, skincare, and lash extensions for clients who want to feel confident, radiant, and fully themselves on their big day.
My passion lies in creating timeless, glowing looks that enhance your natural beauty—not cover it up. Whether you’re looking for soft glam, bold bridal, or something in between, I offer a personalized experience from start to finish. I also provide in-studio skin prep services, including facials, dermaplaning, and brow work to help you feel photo-ready before your big moment.
While I personally handle makeup and most bridal styling, I also work with two additional stylists for larger parties or on-location weddings, ensuring everyone gets the attention and care they deserve. We’re fully mobile, organized, and trained to keep things smooth, efficient, and fun—whether we’re getting ready at your venue or in your home.
This year, I’ll also be representing my business as the lead hair and makeup artist for the only fully Indigenous team participating in both New York and Los Angeles Fashion Week—a dream come true and a reflection of the work I’ve put into this craft.
If you’re looking for a beauty professional who brings experience, calm energy, and a deep love for what she does—I’d be honored to be part of your wedding day. Let’s create something beautiful together.

Our wedding was on a beautiful Saturday morning. Jessica and Nikki were professional, friendly and very kind. They came on time, set themselves up neatly, interacted and kept the m...
ood fun and got done at the time that was planned out perfectly. One of my bridesmaids could not show up and Jessica graciously agreed to do the makeup for someone else. I also was able to get derma planing, hair and makeup trial at an appropriate timing before the wedding. It truly felt very smooth, easygoing and balanced. The final look was exactly what I wanted and was such a wonderful experience. It was trust at first sight ☺️❤️ 100% recommend
