Very glad I chose Kirsten as the makeup artist for my wedding. She was thoughtful, meticulous, and really took her time to make sure everything was perfect. During our trial appointment we tried out a few different lipstick shades until we found the one that was just right, which I really appreciated. She also suggested a different eyeshadow color than the one I had in mind, and it ended up looking so much better with my complexion.
Kirsten took detailed notes of each of the products we ended up choosing as well as the style of application. She brought these same notes to the wedding day appointment so everything went smoothly and we didn't have any surprises.
She also did a few touch-ups for my husband without overdoing it. It was a fun experience that gave him an extra boost in confidence:)
I felt I was in good hands the entire time and I couldn’t have been happier with the final result. Highly recommend!
Kirsten was absolutely amazing. From the setting up of the makeup trial, to skin care and skin prep recommendations, to the wedding day, she was very responsive, helpful, and extremely easy to work with. I highly recommend her!
Kirsten was fabulous! She was very flexible and worked with my schedule since I was planning my wedding from Florida and was only in the area a couple of times in the 8 months before my wedding. The day of my wedding, Kirsten was on time and she did a fantastic job! I could not have been more pleased.
