Danielle is the absolute best! I have known her for over a decade, and she always makes me feel beautiful and special! She has a knack for making you feel like you are more beautiful than you can imagine!!! I wouldn’t want anyone else doing my makeup for an important event!! She is the real deal, and I have followed her from Hingham to Boston and now to Wellesley!!!
I can't believe how much I loved my hair and makeup for my wedding! Danielle and Kenz nailed it and I couldn't have been happier with how it turned out. They were all on time, kept everything moving smoothly, and were fun to hang out with all day while we were getting ready. I'd recommend them to all of my friends for their wedding days!
Danielle is an absolute gem. She can do anything and makes you feel like the most special woman in the world. We worked together for 2 years teaching me how to do my own makeup for my micro wedding and then absolutely beautifying me (and my bridal party) for the big day a year later. Her talent and attitude made me look and feel my absolute best. Could not have done it without her and would not want to do it with anyone else. Can’t wait for the next event. Could not recommend more.
5 stars is not enough! Danielle is absolutely phenomenal, not just with doing your makeup - but her personality makes you feel so comfortable. I was a ball of nerves getting beautified before my wedding, and she was able to make me relax. She made sure I had everything I needed down to the genre of music I wanted while getting ready. She is absolutely wonderful!!
Danielle is a phenomenal makeup artist, 5 stars is not enough. She was recommended to me by one of my bridesmaids and that was the best recommendation I could have gotten. She put me and my wedding party at ease, and for someone that does not frequently wear makeup, I did not have one worry about how I would look. Danielle is truly skilled at her art, instills confidence in all her clients, and makes getting ready the morning of the wedding easy. My makeup was absolutely flawless for the whole day and night- sweat, tears and all! My mom, mother-in-law, and bridesmaids were SO happy and couldn’t say enough good things. It was such a treat and I recommend her many times over.
Attention all brides, your search for a makeup artist is over! There is simply no one better than Danielle. On top of her incredible talent, she is hilarious, and can put any bride's nerves at ease. She is extremely accommodating, and will work with you to make your day perfect. All of my bridesmaids looked gorgeous, with an individual look that was best suited for them. Also, I had never worn false eyelashes and was a little nervous, trust Danielle, they'll look amazing. Book Danielle now, you won't regret it!
This woman is a magician! I have to say, I have never felt so beautiful! Danielle did an amazing job. Hands down, she is the best. Any look you want, it can be done. From natural to full blown glam, Danielle is your girl! Book your trail & see for yourself! You will NOT be disappointed.
Danielle was by far one of the best individuals I met during wedding planning. She was responsive, prompt and professional, but more importantly really takes the time to listen to you. Her amazing personality will make you feel welcomed and at ease in her chair, and her talent will make you feel like a queen.
My shower and wedding makeup was flawless and lasted all day and night. Thank you Danielle!
Danielle was the makeup artist for my wedding this past September. The "big day" can cause a lot of anxiety, but Danielle made me feel calm and relaxed. She is truly talented. My makeup looked flawless. Not only is Danielle amazing at what she does she is an extraordinary person. She had us all laughing and smiling the entire time. I cannot thank her enough.
Danielle did my make up as well as 4 cousins, nieces and sister for my sons wedding last weekend. She was punctual, professional and perfect! We all looked beautiful. She pampered and entertained us from the moment she arrived at our hotel. Mackenzie did our hair and I can't say enough about her talent in being able to patiently work with each of us for amazing results!
It was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend!!!
Danielle is amazing! I met her at my friends wedding and absolutely loved her approach. She has an incredible passion and enthusiasm towards what she does. She truly goes out of her way to make the day perfect for the bride and the bridal party. I was just amazed at how everybody looked when they were done. She even gave the little kids their own "mini makeup experience" that made them feel part of the day. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!
Danielle is the best makeup artist there is! Her personality is fabulous and her skills are unmatched. She has done all of my friend’s weddings and bridal showers and we’ve all been so happy with the results. I don’t wear much makeup and Danielle gave me such a perfect, natural look. I gave her a very broad description of what I wanted and she brought my vision to life. Danielle is an expert at giving everyone an original look that fits their style and skin tone. No one ever looks overdone or not like themselves. I would recommend her for any and all of your makeup needs, especially wedding makeup. My Maid of Honor just booked her for her own wedding next year since she was so happy with how Danielle handled makeup at mine. She’s an amazing presence to have on your wedding day.
Danielle was the absolute best make up artist a bride could ask for. When i went for my trial run she made it so easy and talked to me like we had known each other for years. I had seen a picture of her work after my trial run and decided that i had liked that makeup style better than what i had picked out and Danielle listened to my changes and said it would be no problem. Danielle traveled to the hotel that my wedding party and I were getting ready at and let me tell you all my girls absolutely adored her. I had some crazy bridesmaids that do not embarrass easily but Danielle fit right in and thought they were all hysterical. She took the time to talk to each girl as she did their makeup and actually cared to get to know everyone. Danielle was a delight to work with and everyone loved their makeup and eyelashes. Danielle did fabulous work and if i ever need a makeup artist again she will be the first one i call. I will be recommending Danielle to everyone and if you choose her for your big day she will not disappoint.
I have been going to Danielle for my makeup (and advice on makeup…..and life) for years. She is not only a master in her trade, but she gets to know her clients and can pinpoint exactly what they want.
Danielle did the make up for me, my bridesmaids, and both mothers for my wedding. It was absolutely perfect. She gave us all a look that was both natural, and accentuated our features. Everyone looked gorgeous, and we had fun doing it. She is an expert at putting everyone at ease, and has the best sense of humor. I LOVE YOU DANIELLE, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!!!
My sister first recommended Danielle to me when I was looking for a makeup artist for my wedding - and I’m so grateful that she did! Danielle is so talented, and she made me feel absolutely beautiful on my special day. She also did the makeup for my mother, flower girl, and all my bridesmaids! She personalized everyone’s experience, giving everyone a look that they were comfortable with and that was appropriate for the occasion. An added bonus: Danielle is fun and hilarious, and she gets along well with everyone. That made me feel so relaxed and helped us all have a good time while getting ready. When I look back on it, I realized she did all of this while doing makeup for 8 people and made it look so effortless.
A few months ago, I was back in Massachusetts for my baby shower (I live in Colorado now and sadly cannot call Danielle to come over and do my makeup anytime I want), so my sister and I asked Danielle to swing by our house to do our makeup for the occasion. Danielle made me feel like a glowing mama at 6 months pregnant, and we had such a good time getting ready with her.
If you’re looking for a prompt professional who uses only the best products and does fantastic work, Danielle is great for anything from major events and large groups to something smaller and more casual. And one final tip: she is an eyelash wizard, so GET THE LASHES!
She is hands down the best in the industry!!
I have had the pleasure of knowing Danielle for over 10 years. Not only is she a wonderful human being, she is an extremely talented make-up artist. I had Danielle teach my daughter’s middle school friends how to apply age appropriate make up and those lessons have stayed with them through high school. So much so, that they requested Danielle for Prom make-up. She has a gift for tailoring her knowledge of make-up application to everyone’s ‘beauty’ comfort zone while bringing out the best features of what they already have.
As the mother of the groom, I wanted someone who could give both myself and my mother a sophisticated and flawless look. Danielle suggested airbrush application and I am so glad she did. I have never felt more beautiful than I did that day. My 70 year old mother had a pep in her step the entire evening as she too, felt her best! Thank you Danielle for being a part of such a special day and for giving your clients nothing less than perfection.
Danielle is the only makeup artist I have ever recommended due to how amazing the experience is from start to finish. We hired Danielle for my brothers wedding, and I can honestly say I have never felt so confident walking into an event. She is extremely personable and listens to what your vision is 100%. During your makeup application you will find yourself laughing or having genuine conversation. She is so personable and caring with her clients. I recently had a shoot in Lincoln, RI where I asked her the night before if she could do my makeup and she made it happen last minute for me! Her execution is so flawless and you just know she knows her stuff. Over the summer my mom and I had an in-home makeup class with Danielle as well, and it was so eye opening learning how to really apply makeup the right way. There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing this person is- just hire her! You will not regret it.
I have had the honor and gift of knowing Danielle for years but from the first time she did my makeup and helped me choose makeup it felt as if she'd known me my entire life. She listens and is intuitive to what the customer really wants and elevates it.
She will make you feel beautiful and confident but above all YOU, inside and out.
She is palette master and product guru.
For any event or advice, she's my girl!
Danielle came highly recommended by my cousin who was in a wedding that used Danielle for makeup. My cousin spoke of how friendly and wonderful Danielle was, and how comfortable she made the bride feel. Personally, I am not one to wear a lot of makeup, more of a natural look, and I do not like all the attention/ pressure to be directed towards me. I met Danielle for the first time when she came to my house for my wedding day trial run. She was amazing! So friendly and outgoing; talkative which broke any awkward silence there could have ever been.
Before we started going right into makeup, Danielle got to know me and asked what kind of look I wanted for my wedding day. We looked through Pinterest together and then got to it.
The whole time Danielle was doing my make up I was just sitting comfortably in a chair with my mom and a couple friends. She had us all laughing the entire time. I have never felt so comfortable having everyone just stare at my face.
When she was finished, I couldn't believe how natural, but spruced up my makeup looked! And the EYE BROWS! My eye brows had never looked so good!
On the day of my wedding Danielle came to my house again (thank god), and did my mother’s, my mother in law’s, my Nana’s , my aunt’s make up, along with one bridesmaid. I was a little anxious on the day of my wedding because I wanted to make sure we were not late, but Danielle had everything under control. She has such a calming and happy presence that after I got my make up done I felt like I was ready to get married. This is coming from someone who constantly had nightmares about having forgotten to get their hair and make up done on their wedding day. (Haha)
My makeup was able to last all throughout the night! I didn't lose a lash or have any runny makeup, and I was dancing all night long. I loved the way our photos came out. My face, to me, look flawless.
I would 110% recommend Danielle, not only for your wedding day, but for any day you want to look amazing.
Danielle is truly a master of her craft. Over the last 5 years, Danielle has been part of every big life event our family has had. Both my wedding and showers, my sisters wedding and shower, various black tie events and even fun night outs. She is meticulous in executing the vision of your dream look while staying on top of timing - especially when time is tight and she does it all with a laugh, smile and the best pep talks around! She is the best of the best. You will not regret having her do your makeup, you'll only wonder why it took you so long to find her!
When I was engaged I went to a friend’s wedding — when she walked down the aisle, she had seriously never looked so gorgeous. Exactly like herself, not overly made-up, but all of her best features were amplified. Later she told me her secret: Danielle Austin. I booked Danielle ASAP. I’ve never felt more beautiful. She is truly talented — book her, you won’t regret it!
Danielle, by far, is one of the top makeup artists in her industry. This amazing woman makes every individual that sits in her chair feel special. Not many people can do this! I have had the opportunity to work with Danielle both personally and on a corporate level. She is truly talented and anyone that uses her services will come to realize how lucky they are to have met Danielle. Best of Boston finally realized the talent she brings to all of her clients!
Danielle is an amazing makeup artist, I was so lucky to have found her when I did, I had just had a make up trial at a salon on the south shore that's very large and very upscale and well known for bridal hair and makeup, and the hair was fine, but the make up appointment was terrible, firstly the make up artist smoked, and I could smell it on her fingers as she applied it, I even let her know it was bothering me and asked very politely to wash her hands, I then found out half way through the application that it would be a different person the day of the wedding, the salon used mineral makeup and came across very shiny and sparkly. Pretty pretty princess was not the look I was going for, this was my wedding not halloween. At the time I thought it would make sense to get my hair and makeup done at the sameplace for one stop shopping, but I was so put off by that experience that I started looking elsewhere. I thought having a make up artist come to the house the morning of my wedding would be to expensive. Let me tell you it was soo worth it!
Enter Danielle, when I met her she took to the time to hear what I was l looking for, a natural but slightly more glammed up look that made the most of my features with out looking overdone. Her technique is flawless, she was able to give me a natural glow and applied a few false lashes that I was super nervous about but looked stunning but not fake and over done! The best part was her coming to the house after we had gotten back from the hair salon, having her there to do my Mom and my sister's make up as well, my wedding was in 2012 and she still does mine and my sister's make up. I also should add that my Mom looked stunning, she is an older woman in her 60's that has had a lot of sun exposure and is legally blind, and has one eye that droops significantly d/t some surgeries, Danielle made her look amazing, my sister is Asian (adopted) and I am white, Danielle did a fantastic job on both of our looks and picked really natural looks for both of us. I feel like I should add that b/c it's nice to know she is great with many different skin tones and facial structures. The best part was that she put us all at ease and made us look and feel beautiful, and was so much easier having her in the house. I am so grateful to have met her and had her a part of that day!
We love Danielle!! Danielle has helped us with multiple family weddings. What sets Danielle apart from many is not just her talents with brushes, which is amazing; it’s is her authentic ability to listen. She calms your nerves and gives you and your whole party the look you are going for. Smokey, you got it! Glam, sparkle, no problem! Fresh faced light touch, you only better!
She is also very fun and matches her energy to those in your party. Everyone looks stunning and is ready to go!
I can’t wait for the next wedding so we can do it all again!
I tell everyone who will listen that having Danielle as my makeup artist was the best decision I made for my wedding... or at least a very close second to marrying my husband! I vividly remember meeting Danielle for the first time because she is truly one of those people who instantly make you feel like you have known her your whole life. Danielle’s ability to to create the perfect look is unparalleled; she is a true artist that is able to highlight the beauty in each face that she touches. You will laugh until your face hurts and you will leave with a true friend. I can’t express this enough: you need her for your wedding!!
If you want to look camera ready on your wedding day — and all the exciting events leading up to it — do yourself a huge favor and call in Danielle. She can do any look you want, from natural to full-on glam. And best part, you will look like yourself; just the best version of you! And don’t just save her for your wedding, you’ll want her on your side for every event in your life. P.S. She will also give you tips that will let you present yourself more beautifully every day as well as treatment ideas tried and true by her. Love!!!
Danielle my go to girl! Not only is she AMAZING at her makeup skills but she is hilarious while she does it! No one makes me feel as beautiful as she does! Danielle is a natural, I have recommended her to countless clients, friends, family and no one has ever been disappointed! She is a superstar, look no further for your big day! It will be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding look!
Danielle is AMAZING. She has done my make up for my wedding and some of my friends weddings. She will also be doing two of my friends weddings this year. Danielle makes everyone feel comfortable and is so easy to work with. Everyone loves her and her work. Every time she has done my make up I get so many compliments. One of my friends even said she wished she did her make up for her wedding. Like I said she is AMAZING!
Danielle Dumas Austin.....Not only is she beyond speculator at what she does but she is kind, fun, loving and personable. She arrived to my house on my wedding day punctually, prepared and ready to go. The best part is that she blends in like family and enjoys everyone around her. She makes you feel listened to, valued and respected. She takes your requests and ideas on how you envision your look and turns it into a reality! I have never felt more natural and beautiful in all my life. Trust me when I am say you will not be disappointed. She is amazing.
I cannot say enough good things about Danielle ! I had Danielle for my wedding and her work was amazing ! My bridesmaids have hired her for there weddings as well and are always happy. Every bride wants to look the best version of themselves on their wedding day and that’s exactly what you get with Danielle. Not only is she professional but she her personality lights up a room!
Danielle is the ultimate professional in makeup artistry. Many women are overwhelmed and intimidated by the entire makeup process but Danielle puts you at ease from the moment you sit in her chair. Her engaging personality and gift of gab makes you forget what you were nervous about in the first place. When you catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror when she’s finished, you won’t believe you could look and feel so beautiful but still look like yourself. I highly recommend Danielle for any special event but even for a seasonal update to learn the latest trends for your lifestyle that are age appropriate. She’s the best and you’ll love her! xoxo
I met Danielle when she was was working at Neiman Marcus in Boston. Her personality was incredibly warm, confident and charismatic. It was clear that she knew her way around the makeup counter. She generously shared her time and knowledge. After our first chance encounter, I continued to seek out Danielle any time I had a formal event that required amazing makeup. She was always quick to respond to my text messages asking if she was available. In addition to her talent for makeup, Danielle has a way of making everyone feel beautiful from the inside. She connects on a personal level and shares her positive outlook on life. It’s contagious. Of course I had to have Danielle do my wedding makeup. That was the easiest part of planning my wedding. She met me at the hair dresser’s and followed me and my bridesmaids to the venue while we prepped for photos. The entire experience was so enjoyable. I can’t rexommend Danielle enough!
Danielle is a gifted artist with a positive, upbeat presence. She is calming and supportive while providing the most amazing makeup looks - genuinely some of the most beautiful makeup looks I have ever had (and I'm a makeup junkie). On top of that, she knows how to maximize technique for both lasting makeup and makeup that looks incredible in photos. I highly recommend Danielle for any event makeup looks - you will not be sorry.
Having Danielle do my makeup for my wedding was the best decision I made during the entire process of planning my wedding!! I knew that makeup was the one thing that I didn't want to worry about on my wedding day and believe me if you hire Danielle you will not be disappointed. Danielle is a true professional and has a passion for her work. The only advice I have is if you are planning on hiring Danielle make sure you book in advance because she is in high demand!!
My daughter was married in Boston in July of 2018. One of the BEST decisions we made was to choose Danielle Dumas Austin as our makeup stylist for the wedding. She came highly recommended by a friend of ours and boy were they right! Not only is she a wonderful and knowledgeable stylist but she has the sweetest and most caring and funny personality too! She is a joy to be around. She also came by herself and made up about 12 women in a timely but unhurried fashion. She knows all her products extremely well and knows instantly what works on any given skin type. My favorite thing is she gives you a fresh, natural look that enhances your face so as not to look “made up”. Her work is stunning and everyone in my daughter’s bridal party was thrilled with her! Many of her clients return to her for make up for other events as well. You will LOVE her!!!

At 49 years old, a Bridesmaid! Summer of 2018. Danielle managed to awaken a glow & brightness I had felt I lost. I have scarring from skin biopsies & fear being overly made up. Danielle not only made me look fabulous, she restored my confidence in me. From age 21-52, she brought the beauty out in each of the 10 girls in the bridal party. TEN of us! With skill, Wit & understanding! She didn’t carbon copy us. She personalized each of us to be the best version of ourselves. I’ve also had the pleasure of her in home makeup instruction. She shared the professional techniques she uses & I’m happy to say I get compliments daily now. I’m not going to lie, I wish I could have the bridal party look she gives every day! I used her instruction for my own private elopement December 2018 & will use her services for my future daughter in law & myself in 2020
Danielle was my makeup artist for my wedding and she was absolutely AMAZING! She is beyond talented and knew exactly what I wanted even before I told her. I had never felt so beautiful! My favorite part of my makeup was how much she accentuated my features (made my eyes POP!) while keeping it so natural and looking like myself. She handled all of my bridesmaids and it was a very big wedding party, all the while keeping me so calm for the big day! Please hire Danielle as your makeup artist you will not be disappointed!!!
Danielle was amazing, she did the most beautiful natural yet elegant look. She really listened to what I wanted (and my bridesmaids!). She was so calm on such a hectic busy morning, which was much appreciated by an anxious bride :)
I'll always remember Danielle...she had just finished my amazing make up and there was a knock on the door and my flowers were delivered when I looked in the box, my bouquet was completely wrong (smaller than all the bridesmaids flowers too!) I started crying, Danielle and my sister were right there to calm me down and reassure me the right bouquet would be delivered. My sister immediately called the florist and Danielle said every bride has to get a cry out of the way and that was mine, she had me sit right back in her chair and she touched up my makeup (even though it was probably still perfect). A little while later a beautiful bouquet was delivered!
Everyone loved working with Danielle, since my wedding she has been referred to many friends and I've never heard a single complaint just more referrals!
I highly recommend Danielle for your wedding day, she does wonderful work and was a joy to be with!!
Danielle did my makeup for a friend’s wedding and was absolutely incredible!! Not only was she super talented and made us all look fabulous but she was such a professional when we encountered a few issues with parking morning of. Her flexibility in that moment added so much to making us (and the bride) super comfortable and ready to look our best!
What I loved most about Danielle is that she is not only a makeup artist - she's a teacher! I found that hiring her was truly an investment which has paid dividends. She worked with my daughter who still uses the tips and tricks she learned every time she puts on makeup today!
Danielle is absolutely amazing! I am a salon owner/hairstylist and in my opinion, she is the best on the south shore. She has done my makeup for 3 different weddings I have been in. I have witnessed her talent many times.
I am obsessed with her work. Whatever age you are or how little too heavy you like your makeup she truly delivers. She makes you feel beautiful. My mother is getting remarried this May and Danielle was one of my first calls!
Danielle is incredible and her work is just as incredible. I was a bridesmaid in my friends wedding and she was such a delight to be around. She took her time with each individual girl and did the makeup to suit them. I went in with very little knowledge of what looked best on me and came out with a makeup look 10x better than I could ever imagined. Not to mention she knew exactly how we would look on camera and made sure the makeup from glam to more natural would photograph beautifully! Every girl, especially the bride, looked stunning on and off camera!
Danielle is amazing! She will have you laughing if you need a laugh, or keep it serious...whatever the situation calls for, Danielle can handle it. She’s been able to direct the drama away from the bride (it’s not your day, bridesmaid #2) without any hard feelings. She has a wonderful way with people. Your grandmother, flower girl and you will all feel special and have age appropriate make up! I’ve recommended Danielle to all of my friends and coworkers! This is one of the easy decisions!
Danielle is a MUST for Bridal squad. She is the calm during the chaos of the day. Her personality lends you to feel like your hanging out with your best friend who happens to be THE BEST in the makeup biz. Her skills lend to a flawless, natural glow that’s sure to last all day and night.
Danielle is amazing at her craft and what she provides for her brides, bridesmaids, mothers, plus so much more. I used Danielle for my Wedding this past September, 2018 in Newport, RI.
Let me start off by saying I went to two different make-up trials before I found Danielle. I immediately felt at ease with Danielle when I came in for my trial. Danielle did the makeup for my bridal party and some extended family. Every single person LOVED it, and all of the bridesmaids who were not married yet already know who they are using for their wedding. From the flower girl who is 4 years old, to my great aunt who is 96, she managed to nail everyone's distinct personalities.
The morning of my wedding I was so nervous, I hadn't slept the night before. Danielle's magnetic personality immediately calmed my nerves, and she helped made everyone in the room feel beautiful and special. I really felt like I could trust her, and things were in good hands. Also, just to note, my makeup stayed put from 11am to 11pm!
Danielle is THE BEST makeup artist you could have for your wedding, for many many reasons. Makeup aside, she is a true professional and the most reliable vendor I worked with for my wedding. She communicates quickly, checks in before appointments, and has been in so many highly-emotionally charged situations (hello, weddings) that she can handle anything. For example, I had a huge parking issue at my getting ready location, and she wasn't even fazed. She quickly came up with a game plan and resolved the issue on her own, and kept me calm through the whole predicament.
As for the makeup: Danielle is a true artist and has such skill. She always comes prepared for any skin type or color, has the cleaneast / most organized / expansive makeup kit, and ensures that everyone feels comfortable with their end result. She asked me (the bride) for the type of makeup I wanted for my brial party, just to check in if I had any special requirements. I didn't, and so she checked in individually with each of my bridesmaids and tailored the makeup specifically per their tastes and requests. My mom and I both never wear a full-face of makeup and wanted something that would come across in pictures, but that would still look like "us". I felt so comfortable in my makeup (which I'm never comfortable in makeup), and felt like the best version of myself.
The booking process was easy and professional. I met Danielle for a trial and we discussed my daily makeup routine, what I was looking for, and a game plan for the trial. After the trial she made sure that I was comfortable, and asked me to wear it around for the day and see how the products felt on my skin and wore over time. She didn't want there to be any mistakes day-of, and having that trial gave me such peace of mind. She wrote down everything I liked and didn't like in detail, and referenced those notes for my day-of makeup. She was so prepared!
I cannot say enough good things about Danielle. She is so prepared, professional, reliable, and the best presence to have while getting ready for your wedding. She bonded with our whole group and kept things fun, but also moving timely. She was well aware of the timeline and didn't dawdle, but she took individual care with each and every one of us. I highly highly recommend Danielle for your wedding day makeup!
Danielle was absolutely FABULOUS to work with! Danielle did my makeup, my mother, grandmother and the mother of the groom, as well as all my bridesmaids. She truly listened to what we each wanted and the results were incredible! Not only did the makeup look great (and natural) in pictures, but it lasted for the entire day, night, and for activities the next day - even with all the tears of happiness. The eyelashes even lasted for several days! She worked quickly and efficiently and made sure there was plenty of time for touch-ups and never seemed stressed or rushed. Beyond the beautiful makeup, what I was the most impressed with was what a pleasure Danielle was to work with. She is an incredibly sweet person with a very calming and enthusiastic presence, perfect for what I needed on my wedding day. On what can be such a stressful day, it was wonderful to have someone who was so happy, relaxed, and attentive around. I would highly recommend Danielle, and I look forward to working with her in the future when I need my makeup done professionally. Thank you, Danielle for making me look and feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day!
I’ve known Danielle for several years. She has done makeup and educational sessions for family members. Danielle was the makeup artist for our sons wedding party; many members which were individuals she had never met and everyone was absolutely thrilled with the results. Her demeanor is calming, and assuring during hectic times. The ending results are always beyond expectations.
I highly recommend Danielle, she is the ultimate professional who is dedicated to her art and has a contagious positivity to everyone she meets!
I’ve had my make up done multiple times for different events.
It has never been done as well as Danielle did for my wedding. She knew exactly the look I was going for and did an amazing job. It was flawless! In addition to doing fabulous make up she’s also a pure joy to be around. I was so nervous getting married and she made me feel so comfortable and we laughed a lot. She made sure to incorporate my 8 year old daughter and made her feel so special. Danielle is a true professional, an exceptional make up artist and a wonderful person.
Danielle is an absolute pleasure to have on your wedding day! She made me feel beautiful on my wedding day. She is the sweetest most genuine person. Highly recommend!!!
Danielle is an absolute pleasure to work with! She did my wedding shower makeup, rehearsal dinner makeup and wedding makeup! I couldn’t recommend someone more than Danielle! She truly puts her heart and soul into her work and it shows! Danielle will always have my business if I need my makeup done! Not only do you get the best service, you gain a friend! BOOK Danielle and I promise you won’t regret it!!
Danielle is the absolute best makeup artist I have ever come across! She gets to know her clients and truly cares about her work. She was recommended to me by one of my bridesmaids and is now the “go to” makeup artist of all of my best friends. I already have two weddings this year where Danielle has been booked. There was no question she was the top choice based on our experiences with her in the past! She really makes every type of girl look and FEEL beautiful!
Thanks for all that you do, Danielle!
Danielle does breathtaking work, and she's such a pleasure to have
around on the Big Day. Here's my best proof: I've been married twice,
and Danielle did the makeup for both weddings. When I remarried, I
wanted NOTHING to be the same as the first time wedding (as you can
imagine, it didn't go all that well, hence the second wedding). I'd
had vendors that I really loved and trusted the first time around, but
I couldn't stomach using them again, for the associated memories. I
made an exception for Danielle, because her talents are that
impressive, and her company that lovely. I recommend her
wholeheartedly. She'll make you look beautiful and feel beautiful.
Danielle is a rare gem. She did my make up for myself and wedding party. Never felt so glamorous in my entire life. Flawless.
Danielle is incredibly talented! I first saw her skills in action on my Sister-in-Law at my brother's wedding. Years later when it was my turn, I connected with her and arranged a make-up trial. Prior to the trial we spoke a bit via text and I shared some photos of myself in a couple of different make-up looks from every day beauty to Vegas make-up.
During the make-up trial Danielle made great conversation and was skilled with the application. The finished look was a little more on the Vegas side than I had in mind and we chatted about what I wanted to change (more chocolate brown, less black) and what I wanted to keep (all the lashes!). I did not schedule an additional trial and instead trusted her to take my feedback and apply it to my wedding day.
On my wedding day - she nailed it. It was exactly what I had in mind being soft, yet boldly glamorous like a bridal magazine. It was the absolute best and most beautiful version of myself and it photographed like a dream! By the way, if you're on the fence about lashes, get them! You will look like a princess in your photos. She also did an amazing job on my maid of honor, who looked simply glowing! My make-up stayed put the whole night, even through a ceremony in a church without AC, and hours on the dance floor.
If you work with Danielle you will not only love the experience but you will be forever grateful for her skills as you look at your wedding photos years from now and how great you look in them.
