Cheriene is the best and she made me and the girls in my wedding party look phenomenal on a very hot day in July. I didn't want a cookie cutter bridal look but something more adve...
nturous and she was up to the challenge. On top of that, she was just lovely to work with. Worth every penny!
As an androgynous queer woman who wore a suit to my wedding, seeing a makeup artist on the day-of wasn't in my plans. But my now-wife met with Cheriene to schedule getting her make...
up done, and after a casual conversation about it I got brave and asked her to do mine too. I was nervous, worried that she might add feminine touches I wasn't comfortable with. But Cheriene was AMAZING. She understood the look I was going for (smooth skin & photogenic face, no lipstick or fake lashes or anything) without me needing to go in depth about it, asked a few clarifying questions to be sure, and then did her thing. Her skills are versatile, as my wife got the traditional feminine look and she looked amazing too. I highly recommend Cheriene for anyone who wants their face to look good, and wife & I can personally vouch that she's a good choice for queers, femmes and androgynous people. Really anyone who wants their makeup artist to make them feel like a star.

s professional yet relaxed and can solve a problem if she needs to.. she perfectly and effortlessly covered an eye injury that my bridesmaid sustained the night before the wedding! She was an integral part of our special day and I would choose her over and over again if I could.
I was so happy with my wedding makeup for both myself and my bridesmaids! Cheriene was so much fun and yet very much a professional and made myself and my wedding party feel compl...
etely relaxed and at ease. I had never had professional makeup done before and wanted to make sure I still looked like "myself." Cheriene was great at asking me questions and listening to me and I so appreciated her time and effort. I would highly recommend her!
I used Cheriene for my wedding in September and her professionalism and results are stellar. She was very accommodating to my needs and kept making sure that i got the look I want...
ed. I told her I wanted a more natural look, but I also wanted to feel like a model. She certainly managed to capture everything I was looking for in my makeup trial. I fell in love with my new look. The day of the wedding she showed up on time and did not waste any time getting to work. I was very impressed by how efficiently she was able to work during all the chaos of the day. By the time she was finished my girls and I looked fabulous. I will use Cheriene for future events and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional makeup artist.
Cheriene was amazing from start to finish. I was a nervous bride (about everything, not just makeup!), but Cheriene made me feel comfortable with everything. I normally don't wear ...
a lot of make up - if I wear make up at all. So, I was really relieved when I talked to Cheriene about what I was looking for - I wanted to look like myself, but better! - she said she was very comfortable with that. The makeup trial was great - she showed up on time, and when the trial was complete, I felt amazing. I looked in the mirror and I started laughing because I was so surprised at how pretty she made me! Since I don't wear makeup normally, I wanted her to take artistic license in choosing colors that she thought would best suite me, and she was right. She knew exactly what shades would be best for me - it was great! We talked about what my bridesmaids would look like as well, and she planned out the colors for them too. On the day of the wedding, she was very professional, but warm and friendly. She showed up early, and got right to work on my bridesmaids. I was really nervous the day of the wedding, and when she was doing my makeup she made me laugh and told me everything was going to be okay. When everything was all done, I was so pleased with how everything turned out - my bridesmaids looked gorgeous, and I felt really beautiful. The makeup also stayed on all night. I hardly needed touch-ups. I would work with Cheriene again or recommend her to any of my friends/family who are getting married!!
