I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Natalie for my wedding back in October. She is incredibly talented, and made me feel and look beautiful on my wedding day. ...
During my trial, Natalie helped me create a customized look, combining inspiration photos and tailoring coloring to best suit my skin type. She brought this to life on my wedding day perfectly! Natalie also did the makeup for the women in my bridal party, and everyone loved the outcomes (which is truly a testament to a great makeup artist)! Natalie was a joy to work with and I loved having her a part of my wedding day. Thank you Natalie!!
Natalie was my dream makeup artist. She gave me an insanely perfect soft glam bridal look that lasted all night. My skin has never looked so good. She somehow knew exactly what I w...
as looking for and delivered that and more without me having to ask. She also made my mom look FLAWLESS, and gave us some excellent skin care advice that I am still using. She was so much fun the morning of my wedding, and I will definitley be booking with her again for future makeup adventures!
Natalie did an amazing job with the make up for me, my mom and my friends at my wedding! She does such an incredible job making the makeup look and feel natural and highlight the b...
eauty of the person. I felt so beautiful and comfortable the entire night and was amazed at how well it looked up until I went to sleep. She was such a great presence getting ready with us. We had a blast! I can't recommend her enough!!
Natalie was amazing. The makeup for myself and my bridesmaids and mom was absolutely stunning. It was so natural and comfortable, and so beautiful. She also was just so easy to wor...

Natalie and her assistant Courtney did makeup for myself and my bridal party and MOB and MOG for my wedding and made all of us look so stunning! My makeup was a glamorous, elevated...
yet natural look that made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself. We started early with a big bridal group and yet ran fully on time or ahead of schedule thanks to Natalie and the makeup still lasted through the end of the wedding at midnight despite taking our first look photos during a drizzle before the rain cleared. Natalie is so talented and professional easy to work with, she adjusted to everyone's preferences. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how much they loved their makeup and one of my own bridesmaids just used her look from Natalie as her own bridal inspo photo this weekend! Highly recommend booking Natalie if you can!
Natalie is the best best best makeup artist ever. She singlehandedly calmed my extreme anxiety about my wedding!! I came to her after doing a makeup trial with a different makeup a...
rtist and feeling SO bad after. I decided to break my contract with the first makeup artist and my friend helped me find Natalie after searching instagram for artists she thought I'd like. Not only is Natalie SO SKILLED at doing makeup, but she is SO GOOD at taking direction. I was so afraid to speak up about little tweaks but am glad I did and she went above and beyond to write down every little comment I had at my trial and implement them on my wedding day. She even liked the lipstick I use so much she added it to her own repertoire! She absolutely BLEW ME AWAY on my wedding day; I have never felt prettier in my entire life. I wish she could do my makeup every day!!
I can’t say enough great things about Natalie—she made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I had 13 people in my bridal party, including the officiant, and everyone was beyond ...
thrilled with their makeup. In fact, many of us loved the looks so much that we ended up buying the products Natalie and her team used afterward.
I first discovered Natalie when I was a bridesmaid in another wedding, and after being in several weddings, I can confidently say she’s the best makeup artist I’ve ever worked with. I knew I had to have her for my own wedding, and she absolutely exceeded my expectations.
If you want flawless, long-lasting makeup and a team that makes you feel pampered and gorgeous, I highly recommend working with Natalie!
I cannot recommend Natalie enough! From the moment I first made contact with her, she was friendly and professional. When we met for the first time at my trial it's like we became ...
immediate friends. Having her there on our special day was perfect - it's like she was part of the crew! She made everyone feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful! Not to mention that she totally nails the look. I was very particular about wanting to look natural and accentuating my features and she did just that. Everyone in my family also loved how they looked. The makeup lasted hours, even through an extended reception/hours of sweaty dancing! Thank you Natalie for everything!!!!!
Natalie was incredibly professional, communicative, and lovely to be around. She made me feel comfortable and like we could talk as friends. My look for the wedding was an elevated...
version of my everyday and I felt like a truly looked like the best version of myself rather than someone else.
She was also wonderful with my step daughters making them feel special and navigating all the different teen needs.
I would hire her again in a heart beat.
Natalie is the absolute BEST! Natalie was my makeup artist for my wedding and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. She is so sweet and kind and makes everyone feel comfortable....
She made me feel so beautiful on my big day. I cannot thank her enough. She is professional and so lovely to work with. Natalie knows her stuff! I couldn’t have imagined my day without her! Thank you Natalie for making me feel beautiful.
Natalie was the absolute best and I’m so happy to have worked with her on our wedding! She is so talented and I would recommend her to anyone!
NATALIE IS THE BEST AND YOU SHOULD 100% HIRE HER FOR YOUR WEDDING! As someone who is so picky with makeup (and so are my bridesmaids), stumbling upon Natalie's instagram was like f...
inding the holy grail, and she does more than live up to her work posted online. Natalie is absolutely amazing and so beyond talented. She's also so incredibly kind and welcoming. I immediately felt comfortable as soon as we started messaging/I sat in her chair for the trial. She went through every picture on my pinterest for the trial to really understand what I liked and what I didn't. She was so fun and professional on the day of the wedding too. My makeup was phenomenal (and lasted the entire night). I truly have never felt more gorgeous in my life. She was also really, really great with my mom and bridesmaids. She talked everyone through their looks and made everyone feel so confident. She's the best hype woman!! I cannot recommend Natalie enough. I will be recommending her to every bride I talk to.
I truly can't recommend Natalie enough - I had an amazing experience working with her from initial booking, to the trial, to my wedding day! She seriously is the sweetest and so so...
talented! I was extremely picky when it came to deciding on a wedding make up vendor - I wanted to look natural and a lot of what I was seeing were these crazy transformations! I wanted makeup that would look good on my wedding day but also in pictures and stumbled upon Natalie on Instagram and was like i HAVE to have her! Natalie seriously delivered. My whole bridal party loved chatting with her day of and I am so happy with how all of our makeup came out. It also lasted from 12pm - 2 am! Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone!
Truly could not recommend Natalie more! She did an incredible job on mine and my bridesmaids/mother's makeup! Not only does she do an incredible job, but she was so much fun to hav...
e while getting ready too. Her advice literally stuck with all of us all day and we still can't stop talking about how great she was. My makeup didn't budge in the slightest and I was sweating (a lot). I didn't stop dancing, I was drinking and eating all night and my makeup literally still looked perfect when I went to bed at 3am. I still look back at my makeup in the pictures and think how it still looks just like me but just elevated. She does such a perfect job. Can't wait to go back to her for all my makeup needs! She is just such a wonderful person inside and out and just made me feel so comfortable throughout the entire process.
I hired Natalie for my wedding this past September and she was the best! She is the ultimate professional and is super talented. At first I was unsure with the look I wanted for my...
day and Natalie was amazing to work with. She knew how to achieve exactly what I wanted and my makeup came out flawless in my pictures. Not only is Natalie great at doing makeup she has the best energy and knows exactly what she’s doing. When choosing Natalie to do your makeup for your wedding you are in the best hands possible!
Natalie created the perfect natural, glowy look I wanted for my Cape Cod wedding this past July. Not only did she work with me to create a flawless, uncontrived look (with AMAZING ...
skin) but she also brought the best energy the morning of. The morning was easy breezy, worry-free. She just gets it. Please do yourself a favor and hire Natalie for your big day.
Natalie is hands down THE BEST! Hiring Natalie to do my wedding makeup was by far the best decision! About 1 year before my wedding I had done a trial different makeup artist and w...
as unimpressed with the results. After that experience I was super diligent in looking for a makeup artist (stalking all their reviews, instagram photos etc ) and was so impressed when I came across Natalie! In person- she did not disappoint, during my trial she asked all the right questions and my trial makeup was stunning. On the day of there was nothing to be nervous about because I knew Natalie would deliver! I was so impressed with my wedding day makeup and cannot recommend Natalie enough!
Natalie is top notch, nothing but the absolute best, she is an angel. She is compassionate, gracious and really the kindest person you want to have with you getting ready.

uch of my own research I hired Natalie to do my makeup for my wedding along with my bridal party, including my Mom, MIL and My grandmother. -- she was my first choice and I am so glad she had my date open.
As well as doing your makeup she keeps you focused on keeping calm. I had the most fantastic wedding because of her, she set the tone in a positive way which left me feeling incredible. She was an absolute pleasure to work with from the moment of first contact and she is truly uplifting. I would have Natalie do my makeup everyday if I could! My makeup was more perfect than I could have ever imagined, and lasted ALL night.
Natalie was the best decision I made for my wedding day. She is incredibly talented and somehow finds a way to make you look beautifully glam yet still totally yourself. The level ...
of beautiful I felt on my wedding day was unlike anything I’ve ever felt before! Aside from that, Natalie is also just an incredible human. She is so even-keeled and gentle, and she makes you feel so ease, even when the wedding day jitters start acting up. I couldn’t recommend Natalie more highly!!!

Natalie is so talented. I am very grateful that she was a part of our wedding day. You will not find a better make-up artist out there. From the trial to the wedding day, I felt co...
mpletely comfortable and knew that with her skills I could sit back, relax, and enjoy the experience. She’s also so sweet and has the most peaceful energy. I could chat with her for hours. My makeup was stunning and stayed immaculate all night long, even after hours of dancing. The bridal party and my Mom’s makeup was also beautiful. The pictures turned out awesome because her of incredible work. I cannot wait to come up with an excuse to hire her again!!
I met Natalie in 2019 at my sister's wedding where she glammed all my family members and me. I knew then that for my wedding day I would have to have her too. On the wedding day,...
Natalie was an absolute dream to work with; professional, timely, and most of all made everyone feel their best. She kept me calm through the chaos and stayed for touch-ups which made everyone feel amazing for the entire night. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how much they loved their glam and how much of a pleasure Natalie was to be around. HIGHLY recommend Natalie Shafie she truly is the best in every way!!

ined. She made me feel so beautiful and confident from the day of the trial through my wedding day. She was so helpful throughout the entire process, offering advice and answers to my many questions along the way. She is truly so talented and her kindness and care was felt by every one of of my bridesmaids, mother of the bride, mother of the groom, and flower girl. She not only created stunning makeup looks that complimented each person, but they were flawlessly applied and stayed through a humid, then rainy, July day and through the end of the night. I can not recommend Natalie enough and feel so lucky that I had the opportunity to work with her for my wedding!

my wedding day. My mom and bridesmaids have never felt more beautiful. She captured exactly what I was looking for on my wedding day. Plus she's SO fun to hang out with! Can't recommend Natalie enough!
Natalie is amazing at what she does and was such a joy to work with. Having had some less than ideal experiences in the past, I spent a lot of time looking for the right artist for...
my wedding day and knew right away that Natalie’s natural-but-still-glam style, and her ability to customize makeup to the person (rather that applying the same look to everyone) was what I was looking for.
I loved my makeup and that of my bridesmaids and mom/MIL on the wedding day - everyone looked amazing and still like themselves. Plus, we all had a great time getting ready together. Natalie was relaxed, positive, and a lot of fun to have with us for the few hours before the wedding.
Natalie took my few tweaks from the trial to really make sure I was happy. I felt beautiful and the look lasted all through the night. I can’t recommend her enough - thank you!

ked like goddesses, they were so happy with their looks. Natalie is so professional and really understands how to bring out your natural beauty with glamour and elegance. My makeup also didn’t budge all day and all night, I seriously considered wearing it for the brunch the next day! I will definitely hire her again for any future events!
Natalie was one of the best decisions I made with wedding planning. She came highly recommended by a friend of a friend who described her as extremely talented, professional, and s...
omeone you want to be around on your wedding day-- which is all so true and she somehow still blew me away. She delivered exactly what I was looking for during the trial and of course after I changed my mind on the look right before the wedding:), she was able to execute my vision perfectly for the wedding day without having to do a second trial. The day of the wedding she arrived early with a huge smile and hug and had the best energy throughout the entire day. The makeup came out so perfect, I felt like myself but elevated and not at all overdone, and it held up flawlessly- I only had to touch up my lip gloss a couple of times. I seriously cannot recommend her enough!

My mom and I were already thrilled with the make-up she did for our trials and then she even kicked it up a notch on the day of the wedding. Truly a treat to have Natalie for your big day. Highly recommend her!
You need Natalie for your wedding day. I cannot even put into words how amazing working with her was. She is a true artist. I have never liked getting my makeup done until Natalie....
She makes you look so flawless but still natural and not overdone. My bridesmaids and I were absolutely in love with our makeup and received so many compliments. Natalie is also one of the nicest people I have ever met. She is so warm and so positive. I felt immediately calmed the minute I sat in her chair. She is a great listener and truly customizes your makeup to suit you. To top it all off she is organized and so responsive. Truly a dream to work with. My bridesmaids and I still talk about how amazing she was. Thank you so much Natalie!

k natural and Natalie completely nailed it. I felt SO gorgeous (and very me!) on my big day! The best part about Natalie is how comfortable she makes you feel sitting in her chair - she is so lovely (and stunning!) and her energy was exactly what I needed the morning before my wedding to help calm my nerves. I truly felt like I had another friend/hype girl in the room with me! If you're a bride looking for bridal or event makeup services, run don't walk and book Natalie for your special day!

sence is so positive and calming and I knew she would do my wedding makeup from the moment I met her at our trial. Our wedding was impacted by the pandemic and throughout the entire rescheduling process she was so easy to work with and was so supportive of our date needing to change. Working with her was a great experience and she is extremely responsive and professional which is exactly what we needed for everything to flow perfectly on the day of my wedding. Myself and all of my bridesmaids and family felt so beautiful. Everyone said it was the best makeup they had ever had done for a wedding which made me so happy. She executed my bridal vision perfectly and made me feel like myself but elevated. Everyone needs Natalie for their wedding, she is the absolute best.

essionally done because it always looks like "too much" even when I ask for a natural look, but Natalie hit the nail right on the head. The makeup was beautiful and natural and exactly what I asked for. She was so sweet and fun to be with during the day. I could not recommend her more!
I had originally hired Natalie to do both my wedding makeup and all my bridesmaids' makeup for my August wedding....but, that obviously got covid'd! However, Natalie was extremely...
understanding and flexible, and worked with me to postpone to a date in 2021, AND she accommodated me by doing just my makeup and my sister's makeup for the little minimony we held instead this year. She is incredibly talented (and sweet, funny and cool) and gave me the exact look I was going for. Can't wait to work with her again next year!

I don't wear a lot of makeup normally, so I wanted to go with a natural but enhanced sort of vibe so I would still look and feel like myself. She did that perfectly and then some with my look. It looked fresh even 12 hours later, despite having rain during my outdoor ceremony! I would recommend Natalie to anyone, she's amazing!

I cannot say enough about Natalie. You must hire her!!! From my first email inquiry to post-wedding communications, Natalie is nothing short of amazing. Her work is absolutely stun...
ning. I’ve never in my life felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day and more importantly, I felt like myself! Natalie helped me achieve exactly the style I wanted - natural glam with a focus on my eyes. I didn’t have any sample photos for Natalie but rather communicated the “look” I was going for and she executed it PERFECTLY. Her use of airbrush made me feel light and ensured my makeup was applied flawlessly - and it stayed on perfectly all night! My bridesmaids all LOVED Natalie and are still talking about how obsessed they are with her work. I received endless compliments throughout the evening and after my wedding about how stunning my make up was and how I “still looked like myself”. Natalie is a true artist, making your wedding a dream with the finest products, but most importantly, she has a tremendously calming aura about her. She brought so much zen, good vibes and positivity to my bridal suite on a morning that friends say is typically “chaotic”. With Natalie, it wasn’t. I felt completely at ease with her. Natalie has a special way about her and I can not recommend her and her artistry enough.
I’m so glad I picked Natalie to do my and my bridesmaids’ makeup for my recent wedding. The look was glowy, pretty, not-bridal makeup - just what I requested. Natalie was easy to ...

I can not recommend her highly enough. On a day when you want everything to be perfect, Natalie did her part with professionalism and lightheartedness that set the tone for everyone.
