I can't tell you how lucky I am to have both Whitney and Dakota for my big day. To say they did an amazing job would be a huge understatement, they were incredible! I am not a person who wears a lot of makeup so I wanted to make sure I still looked like me- she did exactly that. Whitney made me feel so beautiful, and all of my bridesmaids hair and makeup looked amazing! Plus they were so fun to be around, made it feel like we were getting ready with friends!
I hired Whitney Stassi Artistry and team to do my makeup/hair along with my 8 bridesmaids for my wedding. To say I was pleased with her services is an understatement. She and Dakota arrived 40 minutes early to set up (we started at 7am in Hood River) and started right on time, even a few minutes earlier than expected. She provided me with a day of schedule that was sent to me a month prior. We were on time all day and even finished a few minutes early. I felt as though she was a part of our bridal party. She is so sweet and easy to talk with. I felt extremely comfortable having her be with me on the biggest day of my life. Her makeup skills and professionalism is like none other I've seen. You will NOT be disappointed hiring Whitney Stassi Artistry for your wedding or any event. Best in the business by far!!
Thank the Beauty Gods for blessing me with Whitney for the most important day of my life. My two very best friends both choose Whitney as their wedding day make up artist based off my recommendation... and of course, I had to have her as well. I’ve known Whitney for the past several years in a professional artist/client relationship. She is the upmost professional and most kind hearted, talented Artist in the industry. It was so special for me to have her by my side on my wedding day ensuring I looked and felt beautiful. She not only makes you look gorgeous, but her genuine heart knows how to make you feel so beautiful on the inside as well. It was so special to have her there because it was literally like having her there as one of the girls. She was punctual, efficient, caring, thorough and just overall amazing. I will never have another make up artist touch my face besides her and I highly recommend you choose her also!! She is the best.
Whitney is AMAZING. I was so grateful to my Maid of Honor for recommending her because she really is such a talented make up artist! I am super picky about makeup too, so believe me when I tell you that I was looking hard to find anything I was unhappy with. There just wasn't anything to dislike, my makeup was flawless. She is incredibly professional and kept in touch with me every step of the way, even when I was overwhelmed with wedding prep and wasn't as communicative with her. She listened to what I did and didn't want, and made sure I knew that if I wasn't happy with it I could tell her and we'd do something else. Of course with someone as talented as Whitney, it never came to that. She started off with a lighter look and went progressively darker as I wanted her to, rather than putting really heavy makeup on to start. That was something I was particularly happy with. She had great insight on what would look good/natural on me, and I felt so beautiful when we were done. The pictures turned out amazing, too! I couldn't be happier.
10/10 would recommend, and would use Whitney again for any occasion I might need to get dolled up. :)
Whitney, is truly one of the best!! She knows how to accentuate and make your best features pop. From a bold lip, to dazzling eyes, or a simplistic look that makes you glow, she's the one to go to! Her experience, professionalism, knowledge, passion, and love speaks volumes through her artistry. Not only is she extremely talented but very personable and reliable, I'm just lucky enough to call her one of my best friends :)
Our team has had the opportunity to work with Whitney on a few weddings now and to say she is talented, reliable, professional and extremely personably would be an understatement. She has great energy on wedding days, people love being in her chair and her makeup speaks for itself. We recently had her do our makeup for our own company photos and we absolutely loved it. She listened to what we wanted, provided feedback and we couldn't be happier with how our makeup turned out. Highly encourage you to explore her for your makeup needs for any event.
Whitney is AMAZING!! I had no idea who to turn to when it came to hair and makeup and a friend referred me to Whitney and I am so glad she did. She is so friendly and she made myself and my bridal party so loved! I looked more beautiful than I could have imagined on my special day and it is all due to Whitney Stassi and Rachel Sailors (hair). Whitney and Rachel came and met me and my bridal party at my hotel prior to heading down to the venue which made planning so easy. I highly recommend Whitney Stassi Artistry!!
Whitney is professional, organized, and an amazing artist! She cares about her clients and ensures that you are completely happy with your makeup! I would highly recommend her!
Whitney is extremely hard-working and takes her passion very seriously. She is thoughtful about every detail, making you feel flawless. She is flexible enough to work with your vision while maintaining her high standards. Or if you’re like me and don’t always have a clear vision, she instinctively knows what will complement and highlight your natural beauty. Plus, she is super sweet and helpful! I highly recommend her work.
Whitney is hands down one of the best artist I have ever used! She is not only reliable and friendly, but really listens to what a client wants. Not only did she enhance my features, but she made me feel comfortable in my own skin on one of the biggest days of my life.
Whitney’s professionalism and skill are an amazing addition to any bride’s day! I highly recommend her.
The BEST magic maker ever!
Whitney makes the whole wedding makeup experience all worth it! She’s organized, on time (early always:)), efficient, precise and makes you feel and look beautiful effortlessly!!!
She’s a 10/10!
Whitney is an amazing artist! She made me look and feel beautiful on my wedding day and was so kind and professional. Everyone commented on how flawless the makeup turned out. I would definitely recommend her services!
Whitney was the perfect choice for all things beauty for my wedding. She knew exactly how to bring my makeup vision to life. I’ve never felt as beautiful as I did on that day. She also had a hair stylist on hand who did a flawless job on my up-do. Whitney was fun, on time, laid back, meticulous, and knew what to do to make my bridesmaids, my mom, and me all look and feel gorgeous. I cannot recommend her highly enough! I wish she could do my makeup every day!!
Whitney is kind-hearted, professional and made me feel at ease when I called her about my wedding. I didn't exactly know what I wanted as I have seen so many different makeup options on all other brides but she was able to suggest something that brought out the best features in my face. Not only that, she made me feel beautiful and that's all a girl wants on her big day right? On my wedding day, she was early and even had brought me a Starbucks with "bride" on it for when she was doing my makeup (SO SWEET). I couldn't have been more happy with the results and how Whitney was with the whole experience. She truly is gifted.
Whitney did makeup for the entire bridal party for my daughter’s wedding. She is very talented in making everyone feel and look beautiful.
Because of her work, the wedding pictures turned out great! I highly recommend Whitney for her professionalism. She was a joy to work with!
I have had Whitney do my makeup many times - Just for fun, date nights, my engagement photos, and for my wedding day (bridesmaids too - who all loved her - such a fun day)! Not only is she the sweetest person, but she is also a super talented artist!! She is organzied and timely, providing a detailed schedule (for my big day) and was always right on track, which helped everything go smoothly. She listens and makes everyone feel so comfortable. She has ALWAYS made me feel so beautiful! To be really honest, I wish she could do my makeup every day! Whitney is very passionate about her craft and it shows! I highly recommend her services!
Whitney is the best! My MOH recommended her to me since Whitney did her makeup at her own wedding, and I couldn't have been happier with my choice! My bridesmaids and I spent a lot of time with Whitney and her accompanying hair stylist, Dakota, on the morning of the wedding, so I was thrilled that they were so sweet and easy to be around. All of the girls looked amazing, and Whitney and Dakota did a great job of listening to what each girl wanted. Whitney and Dakota were organized and efficient, but also did a wonderful and thorough job. My hair and makeup was exactly what I wanted and everything stayed in tact through a tearful first look and ceremony as well as a couple hours of dancing! I highly recommend Whitney Stassi Artistry!!
I chose Whitney to do my makeup for my wedding. She had a great package detail for me and my bridesmaids. The makeup trial was so laid back and she was really receptive to me wanting to make changes afterwards.
She was punctual, friendly and fit right in with my group of girls. My makeup stayed fresh and in place for about 12 hours.
She was awesome!
Whitney made my wedding weekend a dream come true. She did my makeup for both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding day and I've never felt so confident and beautiful. I don't wear a lot of makeup and was worried I wouldn't look like myself. Whitney was really sensitive about that and made sure I felt comfortable and natural.
The morning of the wedding she arrived and was set up and ready to go with a smile on her face in what felt like minutes! She was ahead of schedule the entire day because weeks before the wedding she'd put together a schedule that I could send out to the girls ahead of time. This was SO nice because everyone knew in advance when they needed to get ready for makeup. Each time one of my besties got out of her chair I was even more stunned than the one before, and they were all super happy with their look as well. Whitney was one of my bridesmaids and having her do my makeup was one of the most special moments of my wedding day. Looking up at her and seeing her smiling ear to ear because she was so excited for me made me feel SO special and calm. Thank you for being an absolute pleasure to work with and have as a friend! I will continue recommending you to everyone I know!
I am not sure how any person could write Whitney a bad review. She is RESPONSIVE, PROFESSIONAL AND ON TIME. She came all the way to our wedding in Sunriver and she was at our house in Caldera in the snow/ice EARLY. (6:45am) She is so incredibly talent and I have had my make up done by multiple people in the past. Every person commented on my make up at the wedding. My mom who never gets her make up done only wants to use Whitney for any upcoming events. She will make you feel like you woke up a princess. If you want the best of the best and can understand if she has lag time between her doctors appointments for being pregnant (aka 24 to 48 hours) then book her. She is worth every penny! XOXO Whitney! Another successful wedding and you made me look and feel like a million dollars! :)
I chose whitney to do my make up for my engagement photos, wedding, step daughters senior pictures AND now my maternity photos! I had seen her name and work tagged in photos on IG & FB and have tons of friends who had used her services and they all looked gorgeous! Not only was I impressed by how beautiful she made me feel, she was so sweeet and kind to talk to to each time I sat in her chair. I highly recommend her services!
I did not have a good experience with Whitney unfortunately. I was recommended from a friend as I became the bride to be shortly after my friends wedding. It was incredibly hard getting responses from her, or I'd have to repeat myself multiple times with the same question and still no answer. There was nearly a month of pure silence as I wasn't worth her time or reply, so I wrote her two times more during that period of silence, FINALLY got a response where I once again had to repeat my question that still wasn't answered previously. (I even used saved emails and forwarded them to her) . No courtesy to even reply to me in the end. Super unfortunate, I was very upset we didn't work out in the end.
Not only is Whitney incredibly talented, she is super professional and an overall joy to be around. She showed up at the exact time she said she would the day of my wedding and naturally, my bridesmaids were running late. Even though she was pressed for time she managed to make myself and eleven other women look better than ever, all while blending in as one of the girls.
I would highly recommend Whitney to anyone, and hope I can come up with some sort of special occasion to work with her again!
Whitney was an absolute GEM to work with. I do not wear a ton of make-up nor did I want to wear a lot for my wedding. When I went in for my practice run, she made me feel 100% comfortable and beautiful with everything! She is easily one of the sweetest girls I have ever met. And incredibly talented.
What I appreciate about Whitney's art is that she still kept my face simple enough that it looked like 'me', just an enhanced me. The make-up she did for the entire bridal party was stunning. Each of us had our own look and made the day so much easier. No fuss over make-up made it so enjoyable.
Booking Whitney was by far one of the best choices I could have made. She went above and beyond the expectations that I could have ever had. She uses high quality products that will make any customer happy. Additionally, she is extremely flexible. My Mother wanted to use her own face make-up, Whitney had absolutely no problem.
One of my favorite things about Whitney though, is her ability to make everyone feel special. This can be extremely valuable to any stressed out bride. Knowing I had her on my team, immediately put me at ease. I knew everyone looked stunning without looking like Drag Queens. The pictures turned out A-Mazing. Knowing we looked flawless added to the beauty of every picture we took.
I'm so thankful for Whitney. I would hire her again in an INSTANT. Booking Whitney is the easiest call to make. She will come to any location and take care of the beauty details.
Thank you Whitney for everything!! You are so wonderful!!
Whitney is one of the sweetest people on the planet and it's simply a complete bonus that she's one of the most talented make-up artists I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. Her work speaks for itself if you look at her portfolio. Whitney is the best!
I've had Whitney do my makeup on several occasions. I am never dissapointed. She has a beautiful studio in Beaverton that I always feel comfortable going to. She brings out the inner beauty in every client that sits in her chair. I have a few issues that I'm self conscious about on my face and she always makes me feel better about them coming into her studio and leaving. Booking Whitney for ANY event is the one thing I do recommend. She takes care if every single thing and always makes you feel at ease.
I could not have asked for a better make-up artist to make me feel more beautiful than I ever have in my life. I already knew Whitney from high school, but even if you don't know her, she treats you as a close friend and always has a smile on her face. She went above the expectations that I had, and I honestly couldn't stop taking pictures of myself because I felt that gorgeous! She is incredibly talented and uses high quality products to ensure your face looks flawless and that your makeup stays. My bridesmaids absolutely loved their makeup too and looked stunning. I've received so many compliments from others who weren't even at my wedding, from pictures that said my makeup was flawless. She understand what it takes to make your best features pop and shine through the camera on your wedding day. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone and everyone I can. Any special event that I have, I plan on going back to Whitney. Thank you for making me feel more beautiful than I have in my entire life!
I don't have enough amazing things to say about Whitney! Not only is she super talented but she's a great friend to have next to you on your big day! I actually booked Whitney almost a year prior to my wedding, and over the course of the year, we kept in touch and quickly became good friends! Whitney is gorgeous inside and out and deeply values her relationships with everyone--including other members of the bridal party, family and other wedding vendors she works with. Her professionalism is impeccable and the quality of her work and satisfaction from her clients are incredibly important to her. She truly made me feel like my very best self on my wedding day! Working with Whitney was one of the best parts of my wedding experience!
I decided a couple weeks before my wedding to have my bridal makeup done. I had seen Whitney's work before, so I knew how good she is. I didn't think I would be able to get her, but she found a way to fit me in so that I would feel beautiful on my wedding day. Even though she did my makeup early in the day, it was perfect all day long! I received compliments that day and afterwards from friends and family who saw pictures later. I couldn't have been happier with her work. She is sweet, lovely, professional, and exceptionally talented. Thank you, Whitney! Xoxo.
Whitney was so easy to get ahold of and so reliant. She made our bridal party and bride feel so taken care of. She did such a great job and was so attentive making sure we were all happy with everything she did. I would definitely recommend her and of course have her do my future wedding!
I met Whitney Stassi through a referral from a sorority sister. She lives in Portland, which is two states away from me. Once I saw her work, I knew I had to have her at my wedding, no matter where she was from!! Upon getting to know her, she went to a very prominent cosmetology school in Los Angeles. She has done make-up for television!
Getting ready for a wedding can be stressful, but also it's one of the most special times of your life!! Whitney specifically recognizes this.
She was timely, caring, listened to what I wanted, affordable, efficient, has more make up that a department store and made the hours before my wedding flawless. You want her in your hotel room on your wedding day, before you walk down the aisle - she can make a 4 year old flower girl or 90 year old grandmother of the groom feel special and beautiful.
Looking back at before and after pictures, it's an understatement to say this woman is amazing. I even added a friend to the wedding party make-up (sorry, Whitney!) and she made it work without sacrificing time or causing stress.
I can't say enough about this professional, caring, beautiful and fun woman. She made my wedding day unforgettable.
There is nothing I can say that will give this girl justice! I have never looked/ felt so beautiful on my wedding day. She was able to provide me with flawless makeup that made me look like the best version of myself! I cant stress enough to you brides that Whitney is probably one of the best vendors I spent my money on. Everytime I lay eyes on my wedding album I can't help but think that was one of the best days of my lives. I looked beautiful, felt beautiful and I owe it to Whitney Stassi for that!
I had the pleasure of working with Whitney on a photo shoot. She is a constant professional, and so kind! Besides being an awesome person, she is a phenomenal makeup artist. She took a very tired girl (me) and brought her to life. I was truly shocked when the face staring back at me showed zero signs of exhaustion. She made my eyes pop, and my skin look flawless. I cannot wait to work with Whitney again!!
Whitney did my 6 bridesmaids and my make-up for our September wedding. Her work is absolutely beautiful and everyone looked amazing. She is a truly talented and gifted artist. Not only is her work beautiful but she is extremely professional and had a calming quality about her which is so important for your big day. I highly recommend Whitney, I couldn't have been more happy with how everything turned out.
I feel so privileged to have had my wedding day makeup done by such a true artist. Whitney did an amazing job, and I'd sincerely recommend her to anyone I know wanting a glamorous look for any special occasion.
During my trial run she took her time to get to know me and my style. I didn't have an exact look in mind, but Whitney talked me through the process, and created the most beautiful look that I was unknowingly dreaming of. She made the process fun--and we were able to chat about wedding details as if we were old friends while also keeping it flawlessly professional.
After my trial run she checked in with me to see how the makeup wore throughout the day, and what (if any) changes I wanted to make. Though I didn't want to make any changes, I thought it was such a nice and personal touch. She also wrote down names of different products that she used (just in case I wanted to have my own lipstick on hand for touchups!)
On the day of my wedding she arrived early and was ready with a hug of congratulations! It was so comforting to have a friendly face to calm any pre-wedding jitters! She did a wonderful job, and I truly felt so radiant as I walked down the aisle.
My experience working with Makeup by Whitney Stassi was lovely, and I cannot wait to call her up for my next special occasion.
I loved having Whitney do my makeup! My role was Mother of the Bride and she did an amazing job! She is fun to work with, knows how to make you feel relaxed, listens to your ideas and Whitney delivers! She is truly an artist! I would definitely recommend her for your special occasion! Whitney is a beautiful person inside and out! You'll love her!
Whitney is absolutely amazing at what she does. I've been fortunate enough to have her do my makeup a few times for various occasions and I've never felt more beautiful every time! She is so talented, sweet, and receptive! She listens to what you want and need, whether it be a very light look or slightly more dramatic. She can do it all! I HIGHLY recommend her!
We hired Whitney for my wedding day and she did not only my makeup but my MOH, 2 Bridesmaids, mother and mother in law. She invested extremely focused individual time on each of us and listened to our likes/dislikes in regard to makeup. When I went in for my trial run I had pictures to show her what I wanted but come the wedding day my girls didn't...Even still Whitney listened to what they envisioned and was able to create the most beautiful and fitting looks for each of them.
None of us had prior good experiences with makeup artists but we can all say that we've had the most amazing after working with sweet Whitney! She listens to what you like and then form fits it especially to what will look best on you. Even though I had only met her one time prior to my wedding day it was as if we had known her for ages...She fit right in and made the experience far more awesome than any of us ever expected!
I highly, HIGHLY recommend that any and every bride add Makeup by Whitney Stassi as a part of your wedding team...You won't regret having this extremely talented woman by your side!
If you have any type of event where your make up needs to look and stay fabulous, Makeup by Whitney Stassi will leave you beautiful and satisfied! Whitney has several years of experience and really listens to your wants and needs. I highly recommend Makeup by Whitney Stassi-not only for Whitneys incredible talent but for her dedication to her clients!
Whitney Stassi did an amazing job at my sisters wedding. She arrived early and was very professional. She is based in Portland Oregon but my sister heard about her business through friends in CA. She had to book Whitney for her Napa wedding. My sister was stunning!! Whitney listened to exactly what my sister was looking for and did an outstanding job!!! She has an amazing collection of makeup and even gave me tips on how to apply! I wish she lived closer to us and could do our makup everyday!!!
Whitney did the makeup for my daughter's wedding in August and the results were amazing!!! I seriously was impressed way beyond what I knew would be a perfect job, based on the recommendations and comments that others made regarding Whitney's skill level. Her perfectionist artistry came through in a very natural way, but with the perfect amount of color for photos. Whitney truly is the best makeup artist I've personally seen, and I know quite a few. Aside from being amazing with her artistry, she was such a joy to be with through the whole makeup process. She's so much fun, very organized, not to mention gorgeous, and made the experience a joyful one! The photo's turned out amazing because of Whitney's expertise, and I will have those pictures forever...be sure to pick Whitney the black-belt makeup artist! I cannot say enough good about her as a person and an artist!! She really is a 5 star on every level!!

I recently was married of 09/06/14, and hired Whitney Stassi to do mine, and all of my bridesmaids makeup for my big day. (I had 8 bridesmaids-including myself) I had my makeup done by her the year before for my best friends wedding, and remembered how amazing our makeup was then, so of course I was excited to have her do mine!
Whitney is not only professional and such a talented makeup artist, she is also incredibly sweet and thoughtful. On the day of my wedding she was so thoughtful, and gave me a sweet gift just to congratulate me!
But her talent as a makeup artist is phenomenal. The makeup used is high quality, and she really brings out every girls natural beauty, while also listening to the what each girl wanted. Everyone of my bridesmaids said they felt gorgeous, and we all wished Whitney could put our makeup on every day. The makeup lasted through the entire night, even after a lot of eating and drinking, and quite a few tears. I didn't have to touch up anything, except my lip color at the reception.
Whitney exceeded all my expectations and listened to what I wanted for my makeup, but also had advice for me when I wasn't sure about minor details (ie: right shade of lip color)
Her pricing for the quality of the makeup and professionalism is very reasonable.
I highly recommend Whitney for not only important events like your wedding day, but for anything!
I know I will have Whitney do more of her amazing work for me in the future, and I'm very excited for that!
A huge thank you to Whitney Stassi for making me look and feel so beautiful, on the most important day of my life!
I was so fortunate to have Whitney do the makeup for myself and my wedding party this July. She made all of us ladies feel so beautiful on my special day. Whitney is an absolute delight to work with as she is prompt, personable, and gorgeous (inside and out)! I would definitely recommend her to anyone and EVERYONE! I hope to have her do my makeup again in the future!!
I asked Whitney to do my wedding makeup even before we picked a date for our wedding! She did the make up of my best friend on her wedding day and she did mine as the maid of honor and I fell in love!!! The work she does is flawless! Its great that she offers a trial run, for us to be able to meet before the day. She asked the right questions and gets an idea of what you want to look like on your wedding day while making great suggestions. She was always on time and kept in contact with me. She is friendly, professional, fun to be around, and made me feel special and beautiful. I had never felt so beautiful in my life and got so many compliments on my makeup! I would highly recommend her to anyone!!!
Whitney was referred to me by a friend to do the make up for my wedding. She was by far the best recommendation Ive ever received for both her excellent work and her compassionate personality. She really makes you her priority in the calmest most respecetd way. She listens to your visions and brings out your natural beauty. I remember the day she did my trial run I felt so beautiful and was SO pleased with her work. Whitney is passionate about her work and it shows. She is they type of person you want to surround your self with and I am lucky to have had her apart of my special day.
She was also the makeup artist in my best friends wedding not too long ago and we were all so excited and happy to see her again! Whitney is the type of person who you feel calm around in an excited situation like a wedding or big event and will keep you smiling. I highly recommend her!
I had originally contracted with a gal to do my hair and makeup who was recommended by my wedding venue. Though the gal was very nice, I left my trial bummed out and afraid to look in the mirror... not what you want for your wedding day.
That's when I was referred to Whitney and Jackie for hair and makeup... I was in a bit of a panic after having a scary trial and they were so understanding and calming.
Whitney is professional and also a great person to be around. You can tell she cares about her business and is passionate about what she does. The night before my wedding I was too anxious to sleep but had complete confidence that Whitney would take care of me... and the bags under my eyes, and she did! The prep time before your wedding is so special and who you have to share it with is important. Whitney was so sweet, respectful, and easy to have around. She just fit right in with my friends and added to the whole experience. Also, another thing to consider... the original person I had contracted did hair and makeup... I did not have a large wedding party but there would've been no way one person could have done everyone's hair and makeup with out starting the night before. The day goes surprisingly fast and having two trusted professionals that will schedule this portion of the day and execute it beautifully is invaluable!! I highly recommend her, she is worth every penny and beyond on your wedding day!
Where do I begin? Whitney is not only an amazingly talented makeup artist, but also a true GEM of a person. From the beginning, she was always professional and made me feel like my wants and needs were a priority. She listens to her clients and has a touch for bringing out a person's natural beauty like no other. I would and DO highly recommend Whitney to anyone I know who is looking for a gifted and down-to-earth makeup artist!
Whitney was amazing to say the least. She was very prompt with her correspondence which is important to any frazzled or non frazzled bride. She was very sweet and totally got the look I was going for.
I have recommended her to many of my friends and I will continue to do so.
Thank you Whitney for making my day that much more amazing!
Whitney did my makeup for my wedding in May and I cannot say enough about her professionalism, flexibility and talent.
She took exactly the look I asked for and made it even better! Whitney also took the stress off the morning of the wedding by traveling to me, and was calm and encouraging which really helped settle my nerves.
I felt beautiful on my wedding day and will recommend Whitney to several friends, she is fantastic! Thank you so much for everything!

Whitney was amazing. She worked with almost 21 different women in one day doing their make up. She was patient, compassionate, and committed to assuring everyone looked amazing that day.
I was the event coordinator that day. She was an expert and professional!
Pleasure to work with!
I ended up meeting Whitney accidentally while visiting my venue about a year out from my wedding. I had yet to decide on a hair and makeup artist and she happened to be there doing another bride's makeup. She was incredibly sweet and genuine and introduced herself to me and my MOH. She handed me her card and when I got home I didn't hesitate to call her and set up my trial.
From the beginning, Whitney made me feel completely as ease with the whole process. I'm not a big "girlie girl" and I never wear a lot of makeup, so I wanted to make sure that I didn't look incredibly different on my wedding day. Whitney was incredibly understanding and tried to come up with a look that was elegant but still "me".
After the trial I felt beautiful, but I also felt like the look was a little too much for what I was going for. Instead of being offended and taking it personally when I voiced my concern, she offered to have me come in for another trial so we could test out another look. She happily set up another appointment during which she was able to create a look that I absolutely LOVED.
Her incredible talent and willingness to be flexible absolutely shined through on my wedding day. Originally, only three of my bridesmaids had decided that they wanted to have Whitney do their makeup. However, after seeing the incredible job she had done on myself and the other bridesmaids, the other girls quickly changed their minds and asked to have theirs done as well. Rather than being annoyed and getting flustered, Whitney gladly accepted the challenge (given the now restricted time frame) and proceeded to make all of the women in my bridal party look and feel beautiful.
On top of being extremely talented at what she does, Whitney is also one of my favorite women that I have ever met. She is fun, upbeat, cheerful, accommodating, passionate, and a genuinely kind person. She's one of those people that just makes you wish that you had met earlier in life.
Can not recommend her enough! :)
I couldn’t be happier with Whitney’s work for my wedding!
She was polite and professional throughout our time together. She listened intently to the ideas I had for my wedding makeup and made my makeup more stunning than I had even dreamed of.
Whitney also suggested a wonderful hair stylist, Jackie, that I also hired for my “beauty crew.” The two of them were the ultimate dream team. They were kind, fun, and kept me at-ease on my wedding day.
I also appreciated how Whitney really listened and worked with me on my makeup. She is a very talented lady.
Whitney has so much impressive experience, and yet, she made me feel as special and important as her most valued client.
I hope she knows that I had countless compliments on my makeup at my wedding and I truly felt gorgeous.
I even think my makeup looked good the day AFTER my wedding! (What a relief because I was way too tired to primp.)
Hire Whitney, you’ll be so glad you did!
Thank you, Whitney!!!
Whitney is amazing. She will listen to all your makeup wants and needs. However, she is the pro so if she suggests something she is definitely worth listening to. Not only is she a great listener but she was on time and always made and makes me feel beautiful! I use her amazing talent for every event I need and you should also!
Before I found whitney, I had a terrible experience with another place on my trail run. So I asked around, and a number of friends from different groups in my life all recommended I check her out. I immediately emailed her, and she got back to me quickly even giving me a recommendation for a person she has worked with for hair. Which was great because I needed hair and make up. I was a little worried at the trail run for what I had experienced with the other gal. I showed her a couple of pictures of what I wanted and what I didn't want. She brought my "want" pictures to life but even better. I looked exactly how I wanted. I still looked like me- but a more inhanced me with a beautiful filter ;) the lashes she uses are incredible. I was worried it wouldn't last all day and still had my doubts. I had my trail run in the morning, and still at 11 pm at night after running around with a toddler; I still looked like I had fresh make up on. Sadly I had to take it off for bed, but was excited to get to have her do it again on my big day. She came to my home, arrived early to set up, was friendly and full of smiles; but also focused. She followed my timeline for the morning, and everything went smoothly. I went last and still had time after to relax before it was time to go. My bridesmaids looked incredible and all loved their make up, and I couldn't stop looking in the mirror. She is a ARTIST. Everyone was flawless. And it lasted until I took it off that night. Through my tears, my laughs, my sweat, more tears.... My make up looked beautiful the whole night. I have already gotten my make up done by Whitney again, she is so awesome not only as an artist but as a person too. I wish I could give her some feedback to work on- because everyone wants to get better; but I have nothing. I recommend whitney to every bride to be, or anyone who wants their make up done. My next future booking will be for a personal make up class so I can learn how to put on my own make up. Make up may not seem like a lot in wedding planning; but as the bride you will be looked at the whole time- all eyes on you. So you want to look your best right? I can't express how happy I was with my look all night long. She brought out all my favorite features of my face, I didn't feel like I had a heavy mask on, and it lasted. Your wedding is a fun and special time, might as well have a blast getting ready and love the end product right? Whitney IS your girl!
Whitney has done my makeup on several occasions and I have always been so pleased with her work. She is a very talented makeup artist and I appreciate that she is not only thoughtful and meticulous about what she does, but she is also kind, considerate and happy to be able to take part in the important moments of people's lives. Her passion for others is evident and she is truly excited by highlighting the beauty she sees in each of her clients - this makes working with Whitney so wonderful!
Whitney was the one of the sweetest, most genuine people I have had the privilege of working with. She is knowledgable, experienced and calm under pressure. I loved my makeup and it was exactly what I was wanting. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is getting married or has an event they want to look their absolute best for.
