Not much to say about Elizabeth other than that she is beyond incredible and talented. I am SO grateful that I came across her profile when selecting my glam for my wedding day. She was professional, fun to be around, very educated in her craft, helpful and honestly the best. She did full glam make up on 6 bridesmaids, stayed on schedule and they all looked absolutely flawless. I got out of her chair on my wedding morning feeling like the most beautiful bride. If you are looking for a make up artist that is talented, kind, easy going, punctual, and easy to communicate with look no further she is your gal!!!
Elizabeth was incredible! She made my makeup vision come to life, I could not have envisioned it turning out better. All of my bridesmaids loved her as well! I rarely get my makeup done or do much makeup at all, but she made me feel so beautiful and confident. When I did my makeup trial, she really listened to what I wanted and worked her magic to make it absolutely perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend using her!
Elizabeth did my makeup trial for my bridal shower and my day of makeup! I found her through a coworker whose wedding makeup she did. As someone who is very picky, I went into my wedding day at peace knowing I had the best of the best doing my makeup and I would look flawless. Between her talent and her giant sweet heart, Elizabeth truly is a dream to work with. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her!
Elizabeth was so professional, kind, and responsive throughout this entire process. She was quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had and she made myself and my mother feel very comfortable during our make up application. I could not recommend her more!
Elizabeth is very professional, communicates extremely well, and she is very reliable. I would recommend her to everyone!!
Elizabeth did amazing makeup for my wedding day! She was so great and easy to work with throughout the entire process, from my initial reach out to figuring out timing for the big day. She does a really great job explaining exactly what she's doing and the makeup she is using. I don't typically wear makeup and I know the moms don't either and she made every single person feel comfortable and so beautiful. I would recommend her for any type of makeup you need done!
Elizabeth is so sweet and her makeup was absolutely beautiful on myself, our moms, and bridesmaids! She took such detailed notes on our trial I was completely confident going into my wedding day knowing my makeup would be beautiful. Everyone else also loved their makeup! Highly recommend Elizabeth!
Nervous about makeup? Bad experience in the past? I get it. Prior to Elizabeth, I had two bad makeup experiences for weddings so naturally, I was terrified about having to find someone for my wedding.
And then I stumbled upon Elizabeth's Instagram account. I was blown away. Every single person looked gorgeous. She literally makes you look like the best possible version of yourself. I didn't even know I could look as good as I did! And my friends, who of course were also nervous about makeup, LOVED HER.
She is literally the sweetest woman and just wants to make sure that you're happy. You couldn't ask for anyone nicer or more talented to have with you on your special day. Thank you for helping me feel beautiful!
Listen, I hesitated to book Elizabeth at first because I’m kind of cheap and thought maybe I could save some money on makeup. But SHE IS WORTH EVERY PENNY AND THEN SOME. I’ve been in a lot of weddings where the bride looks amazing and the rest of the group looks good. Elizabeth made my entire party look gorgeous and was so sweet just getting in and getting going. She went over changes with me from the trial and made sure I was happy with the final look. I have a hard time speaking up when I don’t like things but she put me at ease. (In true Elizabeth fashion everything was perfect, so I didn’t even have to have anything changed). It helped me stay calm through the rest of the day and my makeup was on through the next morning and then some.
Like don’t even think about it, don’t hesitate. YOU. WILL. NOT. BE. DISAPPOINTED.
I’m just sad that she can’t do my makeup everyday.
Elizabeth was absolutely amazing. She was always in contact with me to figure out the details for the wedding morning to ensure we had more than enough time to get everyone done. She did amazing work and made all my girls and I look stunning. The makeup lasted all night (some girls even slept in it and looked good the next day too lol). She is ABSOLUTELY worth the price. If you are wondering if you need a makeup artist the day of your wedding the answer is DEFINITELY YES and you HAVE to book Elizabeth!!! I would book Elizabeth a million times over. Not only did she make me look like a beautiful bride, she made me feel like a beautiful bride!!!
Elizabeth was punctual, organized and so sweet! All the girls LOVED their makeup. I pray I get to be in a wedding again where she is the MUA ♥️
Elizabeth is such a talented makeup artist! She was so easy to work with and is the kindest person! I would highly recommend her!
Elizabeth was such an amazing person to have on my wedding day! She’s truly an amazing makeup artist and exceeds ALL expectations. She’s not only an amazing MUA, but she is so beyond kind, caring & takes great care of her clients! I could not thank her enough for how well she created my makeup glam vision along with all of my bridesmaids. She’s extremely detailed and makes sure her clients are 100% satisfied before leaving her chair. I could go on and on about how amazing Elizabeth is so look no further and book her for all your glam dreams!
Elizabeth was absolutely AMAZING and incredibly talented! She took the time to ask detailed questions regarding skin type, eyeshadow colors, etc. and I have literally never felt more beautiful in my life!!! My makeup from both my trial and day of lasted so long and still looked amazing despite sweating on the dance floor and tearing up all day. She is absolutely amazing and has a lifetime client in me! Thank you so much Elizabeth!!
Elizabeth is amazing. I can’t say enough about her. She is calm, cool, and collected. She is so sweet, personable, & really makes you feel so comfortable in her chair. I was amazed how she was able to adapt to the needs of the group, giving the mothers a soft glam as they requested & also rocking out full glam on the remaining members or the bridal party. Myself & my bridal party couldn’t stop thanking her for making us feel so beautiful on this day. The makeup stayed on the whole day and night, surviving hours of dancing. She’s so good at what she does!
Elizabeth is an incredible makeup artist who is easy to work with and very friendly. I hired Elizabeth for our wedding in July. She was super responsive when I reached out about her availability and answering any questions I had. I scheduled a trial run with her and she talked me through everything she was using and why, after the trial we discussed what i liked and did not like about the wear of the make or the colors used. From that she knew exactly what to change in order to make me feel more comfortable and get exactly what I wanted for my wedding day! For the wedding day she showed up on time to do the makeup for my mom, bridesmaids and myself. She did an incredible job and we could not have been happier!! I received so many compliments on how amazing my makeup looked and I left like the most beautiful bride! She truly listened to what i wanted and the changes I thought I needed and exceed all expectations. My makeup lasted all day and still looked fantastic by the end of the night! I highly suggest Elizabeth to do your wedding makeup as she did an incredible job and she will make you feel like your most beautiful self for your wedding!
Elizabeth was the best to work with! My bridesmaids were stunning and everyone was thrilled with her work. I would recommend doing a trial because I was confident she would make my wedding morning stress free. Plus her in home studio is so cute and she's fun to be around :) Would absolutely recommend her for your wedding!
Elizabeth was the most fabulous addition to our big day. She was sweet and personable and listened to all of our ideas. Her work was FABULOUS and my makeup stayed flawless throughout the entire day. Would recommend to any bride looking to have a fun, relaxed time getting ready to look even more beautiful.
Elizabeth was amazing and so wonderful to work with. She was professional and communicative and her work is absolutely beautiful. We so enjoyed having Elizabeth as part of the team on my daughter's wedding day. Highly recommend!
Look no further! If you want glam, celebrity makeup artist caliber, then book elizabeth. She is incredibly talented, sweet, and professional. IMO the best columbus makeup artist. She made me feel my best on my day. I can’t wait to use her for another event!
Elizabeth did my wedding make and was the absolute best! Super professional, so nice, and is an INCREDIBLE makeup artist, truly could not recommend her enough! I would absolutely love to hire her for another event in the future.
Elizabeth is the best of the best! She is absolutely INCREDIBLE at what she does and she is super easy to work with. She made my bridesmaids and I feel absolutely stunning, and our makeup stayed perfect all night. Highly recommend!!!
Elizabeth was wonderful to work with! She made everyone feel beautiful with our natural looking makeup. I cannot not thank her enough for doing an amazing job!
Elizabeth is an amazing makeup artist and a true professional. My mom and I had a makeup trial and she was so welcoming and helpful in figuring out what looks to go with. All my girls LOVED their makeup the day of the wedding and we got so many compliments on how great we all looked. If you are looking for a makeup artist for your wedding (or any special event where you want to look amazing) I would HIGHLY recommend Elizabeth!
Brides, your search for a makeup artist stops here with Elizabeth! Trust me! My wedding was in Jan 2021, and Elizabeth did an incredible job and my makeup lasted all night long. Also, all of my bridesmaids loved their makeup. She is SO talented, professional, and very genuine!
Elizabeth is WONDERFUL! I cannot recommend her enough. She is crazy talented and makes you look and feel your absolute best. I was amazed that even after hours of pictures, a few (happy!) tears, an entire wedding day and even into the wee hours of the late night after-party, my makeup was still intact and looked great! Elizabeth is extremely easy to work with, friendly, personable, and absolutely knows her stuff. Highly recommend!
Elizabeth was my makeup artist for my engagement photos and wedding and I couldn't have asked for anyone better! She did such an AMAZING job, overall. She was always very responsive and answered any questions I had. Elizabeth is also super kind and personable, so I felt comfortable with telling her what I wanted changed between my engagement photos and wedding. She did makeup for my 4 bridesmaids, mother-in-law, and mother, too. They all looked so beautiful. I would recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a makeup artist!!!
Elizabeth was an absolute pleasure to work with! I came across her Instagram feed right after we got engaged and couldn't find anyone that I liked more. To my surprise, she was booked (I couldn't believe how fast vendors booked up!)- nearly a year out too! Elizabeth knew how much I wanted her to do my makeup (probably because I didn't stop bugging her to see if anything had changed! ha ha!) for our special day and when we had to reschedule due to the pandemic and decided to keep it small to just parents and siblings, it turned up that she was available on our new date. She took the time to understand what I was looking for, what I liked/didn't like didn't like and I felt so beautiful on my wedding day- just as every bride should. We are doing part 2 next year and already on her wait list but fingers crossed I can use her again.. :) She is amazing ladies, don't wait! Thank you Elizabeth!
Do not walk, RUN to book Elizabeth! I still cannot get over just how perfect my wedding makeup was. Elizabeth is so attentive to your needs, wants and questions that going into wedding day I had no worries or concerns! Not only s she a great artist, but sweet beyond belief. My bridal party of 8 ladies had a blast hanging with her all day and loved how they looked as well.
Elizabeth made me feel like the most beautiful bride ever. I told her I would marry myself because that is how good I looked.
My wedding changed due to Covid but she understood and made changes with me! She helped me relax and she was so organized! You had nothing to worry about!
She also did an outstanding job with my bridesmaid makeup and mother’s makeup.
If you are looking for a makeup artist for your wedding she is the person! You will feel like a model and your makeup will stay on forever! I cried so much on my weddings day but my makeup stayed on the entire time! I highly recommend you hiring her for your special day!! You will love her so much!
Elizabeth was an absolute dream on our wedding day. She is by far the best and I would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect makeup artist to make your bridal dreams come true. She does not airbrush which I know a lot of brides want but she is so amazing at contour which is so much better! Elizabeth even went out of her comfort zone on my wedding day and cut time off from her normal time slots to make sure all of my girls and myself were ready for our early January wedding. And she did it! She even showed up at 5 AM lookin cute as ever to start on her first client! Please please please choose Elizabeth for your makeup artist on your big day. You will not regret it! THANK YOU Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was hands down the best makeup artist I have EVER seen. It is absolutely amazing what she can do. She not only did my vision perfectly, the makeup stayed on the whole entire day and night for everybody even the people that got theirs done at 7 am. She also offers a trial which is super nice to know what to expect and to make sure everything is perfect for your wedding day. Elizabeth is professional and fun all at the same time with reasonable pricing. Look no further and I promise you will not regret it!
My makeup was PERFECT for my wedding day. My skin looked flawless! I was so in love with my makeup.
Elizabeth was wonderful to work with! She was so responsive during the planning phase, arrived early on our wedding day, and even finished ahead of schedule. We all LOVED our makeup! She did a great job on bridal, bridesmaid, and mother of the bride looks. Highly recommend her for your events!
Elizabeth is AMAZING! I used her for my wedding last fall for myself and my 7 bridesmaids. Every single one of us loved our makeup! She was responsive and professional throughout the planning process and helped put me at ease on my wedding morning. She took the time to listen to what I wanted for my “look” and worked with me to make sure everything was perfect. Could not speak highly enough of her talent! I have gone on to book her for an additional event!
Elizabeth is so kind and professional! She truly listens to your ideas and preferences!
I highly recommend Elizabeth! She is so sweet and did an amazing job on our makeup for my wedding. Elizabeth did my makeup, my bridesmaids' makeup, and my mom's makeup and we were all so happy with her work! I am impressed that every single person was happy with how their makeup looked - not one complaint! Elizabeth is organized and wonderful to work with - so glad that I found her to do our makeup!!
Elizabeth did an amazing job for my wedding! Everyone looked more gorgeous than ever. The few modifications that I requested from my trial were adjusted at my wedding and the final product was perfection! I received so many compliments on my makeup at my wedding, as well as comments on posted photos. I highly recommend Elizabeth!
Elizabeth is incredible. She did mine and my bridesmaids makeup for my January 2020 wedding. She was quick to respond on initial inquiry, and easy to communicate with through the entire planning process. At my trial, Elizabeth listened exactly what I wanted. Every single one of my bridesmaids LOVED their makeup. They all said how Elizabeth listened to what they wanted and what their usual skin and makeup routine is. She used the best quality makeup, and her hygiene process between people was pristine (I appreciate this being a nurse!). My makeup stayed on the entire day, and even looked flawless at our after party until 1am. I am so thankful for Elizabeth and would highly recommend her,
Elizabeth is AMAZING!! I cannot say enough great things about her and her work. She is by far the best makeup artist I have had in all of the weddings that I have been in. All of my bridesmaids commented how much they loved their makeup and everyone looked flawless. Her makeup lasted through happy tears and dancing- I did not want to take it off at the end of the night! Thank you, Elizabeth, for your incredible work and attention to detail! You were a game changer in making me feel like my best self on my wedding day. :)
Elizabeth did makeup for myself, bridesmaids, and my mother and grandmother. Most of the women in my group do not wear a lot of makeup on a regular basis, so I was very choosy when looking at makeup artists. I wanted it look glamorous and done up, but not overdone, especially for my mom and grandma. Elizabeth was amazing at achieving a "natural glam" so that I felt made up and beautiful but not to the point where I felt I looked unlike myself. Elizabeth was also very helpful when I had very little idea about what look I wanted. My makeup lasted through taking pictures in the rain and sweating on the dance floor!
Elizabeth was the absolute best for my wedding makeup!! Ever since the beginning booking her, it was a great experience. She has wonderful talent and is such a kind person, I would recommend her over and over to anyone!!!!
Elizabeth is so amazing! She made me feel absolutely beautiful for my wedding day! She is also very sweet and personable and made me feel so relaxed. I highly recommend her, she takes her time and during her consultation she is very thorough through every step!
I have been in many weddings and had my makeup professionally done by the brides vendor so I knew what I wanted when looking for my own wedding. Elizabeth was everything I was looking for! I showed her some pictures I liked and she nailed it! I had her do a test run on the day of my bridal shower and it lasted until the next day I wore it to work, flawless! I’ve had so many compliments about my wedding makeup and future brides reaching out to me for Elizabeth’s information! Not only was my makeup amazing but so was Elizabeth! She is so nice and easy going!
Elizabeth is AMAZING. I highly recommend her to make you look beautiful for any special occasion in your life. She was extremely laid back but was very responsive during my entire wedding process. She listens carefully to what look you’re going for and makes sure she gives you exactly what you want. She is extremely talented and so easy to work with. I will continue to refer her to all of my friends who are getting married! Book her ASAP! You will not be disappointed!
I absolutely loved Elizabeth! She is so sweet and very talented. She did an amazing job on my wedding make-up, as well as for my bridesmaids. I also love that eyelashes come with the make-up - that definitely completes the look. I highly recommend Elizabeth - you can tell she is passionate about her work, and she is super focused on what she’s doing. I got so many complements on how beautiful I looked on my big day. Thanks Elizabeth!
I felt BEAUTIFUL on my wedding day because of Elizabeth!!! She has TALENT! My makeup lasted my ENTIRE wedding day. She is so incredibly kind hearted and genuine. I received so many compliments on my makeup and how pretty I looked the whole day. The way she blends the eye shadow, masks any line, and blends the blush to the perfect touch amazes me. My Mom passed away three years ago, she was very into makeup and always made sure I wore lipstick. When I looked in the mirror, I almost cried because I wish my Mom would have seen me. She would have been beyond thrilled that Elizabeth applied my makeup. Thank you Elizabeth! If anyone is questioning having Elizabeth the answer is YES you want her. One hundred percent!!
I found Elizabeth on The knot and she was recommended to me by another local makeup artist. Elizabeth is amazing and so calming to be around! I felt so relaxed on my wedding day in her chair which is huge! She walks you through every step as she is doing it and makes you feel so comfortable. My bridesmaids and I LOVED our looks! We all felt so beautiful and Elizabeth made sure we loved everything about our glamorous looks! Thank you Elizabeth!
Elizabeth is super talented makeup artist and very easy to work with. My bridesmaids all loved their makeup too. I would highly recommend her.
Elizabeth was AMAZING!! All of our makeup was stunning and done perfect to our specific requests from MOF, MOB, Bride and all my bridesmaids. We all looked flawless and got SO many compliments through the night. She was also very calming and relaxed while doing the makeup and really made me a little less stressed before the big day/night (the calm before the good storm). I would highly highly recommend her with her professionalism and fun and creativity with each girl to fit all our looks! Looking for an excuse to use her again in the future :)
My day would not have been complete without Elizabeth! Not only were the makeup services she provided above and beyond my expectations - she is just a wonderful person in general to work with. Elizabeth is very punctual, and showed up on time to all engagements. She offered great advice when choosing make up styles, and was willing to customize a look for you. She was very easy to communicate with, and didn't mind that I was a very "organized" bride who wanted to stay on top of things. I recieved SO many compliments on my glam bridal makeup. She finished myself and my MOH in the amount of time she quoted! I could not recommend her more!
Elizabeth is simply amazing! She is so sweet and incredibly talented.
I was obsessed with her photos on Instagram, so I decided to work with her for my engagement photoshoot as well as my wedding day!
She’s so easy to talk to; she takes the time to explain everything that she’s doing and ensures that she’s achieving the look you want!
I had to make some last minute changes to my wedding schedule, but Elizabeth was so easy to work with and very flexible!
She made me look STUNNING and did exactly what everyone wanted and more!
The makeup lasted the entire night and I got so many compliments.
Elizabeth is very professional, fun and makes you feel very comfortable! I would definitely recommend using Elizabeth for your special day and all of your makeup needs!
Elizabeth is fantastic!! She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. She is so sweet and really listened to what I wanted. I would recommend her to every bride!!
Elizabeth was so wonderful to have be apart of my beauty team for my wedding. She is the absolute sweetest and is so talented! She did makeup for myself and bridesmaids and was able to make everyone look flawless, while catering to their individual styles. Everyone’s makeup stayed perfect all night and we all got so many compliments. I can’t recommend Elizabeth enough!
Elizabeth did a makeup trial and the makeup for my engagement shoot and was fantastic! I wanted a really professional and glamorous makeup look with emphasis on my eyes and I am in LOVE with how it turned out. Elizabeth was so fast at communicating, flexible, and so affordable for everything she did. I was a little nervous because she didn't do airbrushing and it was even better than the airbrushing I've had in the past! I think the only way to describe her makeup is flawless. And the best part is, she really listens to what you want as a client and goes above and beyond. Trust me, Elizabeth is the way to go for your wedding! :)
I contacted Elizabeth after stalking her work on instagram. I'm not a huge makeup wearer, so finding a happy medium for my wedding day of natural meets fabulous made me nervous. I have received nothing but prompt and helpful responses from her from the very beginning. She even went out of her way to schedule my trial run to align with my engagement pictures since I am an out of town bride. She listened to what I wanted, what I didn't, and the end product was AMAZING. Can't wait for the actual wedding day!!
Elizabeth was incredible. Her makeup skills were second to none! As a Mother-of-the Bride, I was a bit anxious ,
Yet Elizabeth had a wonderful way of keeping me calm with her gentleness and upbeat conversation, as she worked on my eyes, face, & lips. She had oodles of supplies and I could tell she was experienced!
I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Later, I had tons of compliments ! The makeup lasted the entire night(even after I cried during the ceremony) thank you, Elizabeth!
Lizzy did an amazing job! She was right on schedule for all of the bridal party, and she made each of us look flawless! She was also very attentive to our needs and wants!
Elizabeth is not only one of the sweetest people I have worked with but also she made my bridal party stunningly beautiful...I wo hi ld highly recommend her without hesitation.
Elizabeth was amazing and so super sweet!! Not only did she make my makeup look absolutely flawless for an event, she gave me tips and pointers along the way so I could attempt to recreate it on my own!
