My wife and I had the privilege of having Anna do our makeup for our LGBTQ+ wedding! I cannot recommend Anna enough. Not only did she do a beautiful job with our bridal makeup but ...
she was incredibly easy to talk to throughout the whole process. Right after she finished my makeup I learned that my mom couldn't make it to help me get ready, which naturally sent me into tears in the bathroom. Hearing me cry as she packed up, she waited to leave until I was finished. She tuned up my makeup perfectly (there wasn't much tuning up to do; despite my tears, the makeup had actually held beautifully) and made me feel confident as I left for the ceremony. Book her RIGHT NOW!

Anna was amazing to work with, from the makeup trial to my wedding day. Everyone's makeup looked beautiful and she really listened to what we each wanted. She even went above and b...
eyond and drove to her studio and back to the venue to bring me bobby pins when we realized no one had any. She also brought a speaker with her, which was great because the getting ready suite didn't have any.

Anna was the best! She was super easy to communicate with and is very transparent and fair with pricing. It is really special that she doesn’t up charge for the bride. She was rec...
eptive to all my notes during the trial, changed things and wasn’t done until I felt we got the look. She made me look and feel so beautiful, while still looking like myself. I don’t wear makeup everyday so i was nervous for how I would look - but it was gorgeous. I was getting compliments till the end of the night.
She was also extremely prepared and brought all her own equipment including chair, lighting and table. She was so helpful and accommodating for elderly people in my party getting makeup done and listened and executed everyone’s wishes. I would book her immediately!

cts—she took the time to explain the why behind every step, so I could truly understand how to create a look that lasts, photographs beautifully, and feels like me.
Her professionalism, kindness, and deep knowledge of makeup made this such a special experience. She empowered me with tips, techniques, and personalized guidance that I’ll carry with me. I can’t recommend her enough—she’s a true gem in the bridal world!

I was so fortunate to have Anna as my make-up artist for my wedding. Anna set up a pre-wedding trial run which was so fun and helpful when talking through how my make up would look...
on my wedding day. Anna gave such good advice when selecting high quality products and was flexible when I changed up the color of my eyeshadow the day of my wedding. Anna did all of my bridesmaids makeups too and everyone was super satisfied. Anna did touch ups right before pictures (it was a hot summer day) which was very helpful. I would highly recommend Anna, she is a very talented and professional make-up artist.
