I cannot recommend Seema enough. From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding—she checked in with me multiple times leading up to the wedding to make sure she fully u...
nderstood the look I wanted. That level of care and attention immediately put me at ease.
She is also incredibly knowledgeable about makeup and skincare. In the months leading up to the wedding, she shared thoughtful product recommendations and helpful tips to prep my skin, which made such a difference in how everything looked and lasted on my big day.
On the wedding day, she was professional and organized, which made a huge difference given my large bridal party. She kept everything running smoothly and made me feel completely comfortable with the timeline.
Most importantly, she made me feel more beautiful than I have ever felt. Her talent is truly exceptional, and she has such a calming, reassuring presence. Anyone who gets the chance to work with Seema should consider themselves very lucky.

She was also flexible and added the bride's aunts makeup at the last minute as the aunt forgot all of her make-up at home. She was also upfront and clear about her prices and her services. I would highly recommend Seema!

She made me feel calm, beautiful, and confident. Def recommend. She is amazing!!

I have nothing but good things to say about Seema as both a person and a makeup artist. As a woman of color and someone who rarely wears makeup, I was really anxious about booking ...
a makeup artist for my wedding. From our first conversation to the bridal trial and then the wedding day, Seema was responsive, warm, transparent, flexible, and detail-oriented. She is a true artist who made everyone (bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law) look beautiful while highlighting each person's unique features. Seema has a calming presence and went above and beyond (even helping us to get dressed in our Indian outfits and providing me with a touch-up kit for later). She cares deeply about her clients and takes time to understand your unique skin type and desired look. For example, I tend to sweat a lot and was concerned about my makeup running and/or looking shiny. To my pleasant surprise, my makeup stayed put and looked fresh throughout the night without feeling heavy or cakey. Book with Seema today. I promise that you won't regret it!

You looked absolutely GORGEOUS✨ Wishing you a lifetime filled with love, happiness, and beautiful moments🩷

with a limited amount of time. Seema was great to communicate with about the schedule for my wedding and what the other girls wanted for their make up. Everyone was incredibly happy with their make up and Seema listened to each girl and what they wanted based on all of us having different skin types. I have acne prone skin and I am very skeptical about who does my make up, but Seema did an absolutely amazing job and I couldn’t have been happier 😊 She also gave us these nice little goodies bags to help us keep up with our make up after she left. Shes is just all around amazing!!

My makeup stayed on with multiple crying spells throughout my wedding day! My makeup had no smudging at all! It looked 100% until the end of the night.I didn't want to take my makeup off; that's how beautiful it was! I absolutely love anything that is shimmery/glittery and before she left she gave me body shimmer which I wasn't expecting! It was soo fun! Seema took her time during my makeup trial to make sure I loved everything about my makeup and that I was comfortable! I used my trial makeup for my bridal portrait shoot so it didn't go to waste!

Seema did such an amazing job with mine and my wedding parties make up!
Seema was so understanding of my wants for my makeup and we actually ended up completely changing what we c...
hose during our trials(because I had a last minute change of heart) on the wedding day and it was PERFECT- it was actually what she had recommended at the very start. I had zero fading, even after a night of dancing and happy tears.
She is amazing at what she does and I never had any doubts.
She made each of my bridesmaids look flawless and was so great with dealing with my mother and mother in law with their make ups choices too. She even at the last minute helped my niece with her lashes.
The day of the wedding Seema went above and beyond and I could not be more grateful for her expertise, understanding, patience, and skill.
Choosing Seema was one of the best choices I could have made for my wedding day.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience with Seema! From the moment I spoke to her prior to officially booking, she made me feel completely at ease, taking the time to understand ...
my preferences and recommending skincare tips to ensure my makeup looked its absolute best on the big day.
Not only did she excel in perfecting the soft glam look, but she also went above and beyond to create a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere at her studio for my trial. She also stayed in constant communication leading up to the wedding!
On the wedding day itself, she worked her magic not only on me but also on my mom, mother-in-law, and bridesmaids, making everyone feel special and beautiful. I cannot thank her enough for her exceptional talent, warm personality, and the care she put into making us all feel our best. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and amazing makeup artist for their special day! Be sure to book her early so you don’t miss out!! ♥️🥰

she made it such a good experience. Super friendly and easy to talk to! Even gave pointers for skin and makeup products based on her experience. The makeup was flawless - we all received compliments ALL night! I was even getting comments on how great the eye makeup was the next morning (my sis got married - I absolutely went to sleep with my makeup on lmao) I highly recommend Seema to anyone in the area!

p for all of us. Then my husband surprised me with my own private lessons with Seema. She is so gentle and patient with teaching proper makeup applications. She is very passionate about good skin care and makeup. Not only did she teach me things I can to everyday and on special date nights, she has taught me how to shop for the products I need for my skin. I love the facial cleanser and lotion! Seema is the best! I will use her again and again for my make up needs! Her prices are good and she is worth every penny. Don't wait for a fancy event, she is amazing with the everyday care and make up too. I may do a refresher training and makeover just because it's fun and I'm sure there is something I could have forgotten since that session. I would give her 7 stars if I could because she is more than 5 stars!

Seema was PERFECT right from the beginning! I met Seema when she did my makeup as a bridesmaid at my best friend's wedding. I knew immediately she was who I wanted for my wedding. ...
She made the process of scheduling and booking with her so easy. During my make-up trial she talked through every part of my make-up to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. She took the many (many lol) make-up pictures I sent her and somehow combined the best pieces of each of them into the most perfect look for me! She asked so many questions just about the wedding day that I hadn't even thought of yet. Her experience was so valuable and helpful during the stressful planning of everything. She called me a week or so before the wedding and we walked through the entire timeline to make sure everything was perfect!! On the day of the wedding, we had a minor setback when we arrived at the church and Seema was so amazingly calm. She had everything under control because she worked in plenty of buffer time to make sure we stayed on schedule. I can't explain what an asset it was to have Seema there on my wedding day! I have already recommended her to 3 brides. Her work, personality, and vision for my look was nothing short of EXCELLENT! She is one of the reasons my wedding day was perfect!

They say that you can’t expect a perfect wedding day, but mine was with the help of Seema. We originally met at her home, after my having to unfortunately reschedule repeatedly, wh...
ich she handled with nothing but grace and kindness. She took her time to make sure she had down exactly what I wanted and adjusted as needed. My 9-year-old daughter - who thinks makeup is ridiculous - even enjoyed the experience of sitting there and giving opinions. Then came the wedding day, a day typically riddled with anxiety, but her skill and calmness brought a peaceful presence to the room. She was efficient and sweet, accommodating, and ensured even my daughter had what she wanted. Even my makeup aficionado best friend took selfies saying she has been in many weddings and never once had liked her makeup until Seema did hers. We were all ready before the time needed, everyone looked *stunning* in photos, and my makeup lasted through wind, hours of photos, and multiple instances of happy tears. I did not even want to take it off when I went to bed because it still looked better than any other. I recommend reaching out to her to see if she has your date available. You have enough things to worry about when planning a wedding, so just get makeup off the list and rest some of those worries by booking her!

hoping, but also to just chat and get to know me on a personal level. She made the experience so enjoyable which made me all the more excited for the wedding day! In between the trial and the wedding day she answered my every text/question and even called me a few times to make sure we had all the details clearly worked out so the day of would go smoothly, especially since I had a larger bridal party. Fast forward to the wedding day, all my bridesmaids and the mother of the bride and mother of the groom were all OBSESSED with her work!! She killed everything from the bold/glam looks to the more soft/subtle looks. Seema is a true perfectionist with her work, but rolled through it like a true pro in order to keep us on schedule. I truly cannot recommend Seema enough! Extremely talented and professional while also so personable and friendly. Such a sweet person through and through.
Side note: I cried happy tears the majority of my wedding day and you would never know!!

and suited my personal skin tone and complexion beautifully. She did the same for my bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law on my wedding day. I opted for a more "glam" look and it was exactly what I was looking for. My bridesmaids went for a more "soft glam" look and they all looked so beautiful. My husband also told me he had never seen his mother look more beautiful than when Seema did her makeup. Book her now, you will not regret it! :)

The day I went to her home to get my engagement session makeup done, I didn’t want to leave. I wanted to stay there all day and talk to her. Please hire her without thought, you will be amazed by her artistry and her personality. She never rushed to get me, my bridesmaids and mothers makeup done. She showed up extra early to give her undivided attention. We all LOVED her and how she made us feel beautiful. LOVE YOU SEEMA!!!
