Choosing Kelsey as my wedding day makeup artist was truly one of the best decisions I made. I didn’t really know what I wanted going into my trial and I’m a very indecisive person,...
but Kelsey was able to listen to the little details and read me perfectly. I’m not someone who wears almost any makeup, so it was important to find someone who could make me feel like a bride, while also still looking and feeling like myself. My makeup turned out absolutely perfect, both in-person and in photos. I truly felt like the very best version of myself on my wedding day, and I couldn't have been happier with the result!
Not only is Kelsey a talented and efficient makeup artist, she is also so down-to-earth, personable, and fun to work with. She was a calming and upbeat presence while getting ready, and she made sure everyone felt relaxed and beautiful. She flawlessly handled my group, doing makeup for me, five bridesmaids, and two moms. Every single person was thrilled with their final look, how well it lasted all day, and the compliments they received from wedding guests! Her work is impeccable, and her presence is exactly what you need on a busy wedding morning—calming, yet upbeat and enjoyable. If you are looking for a makeup artist who is professional, fun, and can guarantee everyone in your party looks and feels amazing, Kelsey is the only choice! I cannot recommend her enough!!

ell you after a night of celebrating your wedding who wants to take the time to wash it off, I know I didn’t and my husband wouldn’t even think of that after having to put me to bed.
