BASED IN CENTRAL NEW JERSEY
There are a lot of makeup artists out there. What makes me different than everyone else is my attention to every detail and my desire to connect with you like we've been friends forever.
From the minute you inquire and decide to book, you can expect to be guided on an experience you can’t help but rave about to your friends.
Your makeup appointment means more to me than just brushing on some lipstick & blush. Every little detail matters because you deserve a flawless look that reflects your own unique beauty & style.
I'll arrive 30 minutes prior to the start time noted in the contract and "day of" schedule to set up and get ready. And from there I'll feel like just another friend by your side doing whatever it takes to keep you relaxed and happy while making your dream wedding style a reality.
1-2 months before your wedding, we will meet for your trial. At this meeting, we will collaborate to create a look tailored to you and your personal style. It's a great time for us to get to know one another better and the perfect time for us to chat about steps you can take to get your skin looking it's absolute best for your wedding day.
Once we decide to work together (yay!), you will need to submit a signed contract and a 50% deposit to secure your wedding date. Four months before your wedding , I'll be back in touch to schedule your bridal trial appointment. At that time, I'll ask you to send me inspiration photos that will help me understand your style and the look you want to achieve on your wedding day.
As soon as you reach out to me (best way is to use the form on my Contact page) , I will provide you with my availability, pricing, my services, and the experience you can expect if you choose me as your wedding day makeup artist. If you decide I'm the one (hope you do!), I'll send you a custom proposal that includes all the details and pricing specific to your wedding
Brides are booking on average 12-18 months out from their wedding dates. If your wedding is less than 18 months away, I recommend you secure your date by signing a contract and submitting a deposit.
Our time together will be most productive if you arrive on time with a clean face and bring pictures of your dress and makeup looks (hopefully some from my portfolio) that give you all the feels.
Once I get all of your wedding deets from the inquiry form on my Contact page, I will provide you with a proposal that includes the pricing information relevant to you.
It depends on the number of people having their makeup done but I provide you with the makeup services schedule (including artist arrival & makeup start and end times) based on your photographer's arrival time.
I have relationships with other certified professional make-up artists with a similar aesthetic and techniques who work with me when wedding parties require more than just my two hands.
I highly recommend that you look at my portfolio of work to make sure my aesthetic aligns with your vision. I always recommend a trial appointment so we can collaborate to make the look you're envisioning, a reality.
I am based in Lincroft, NJ. I will travel up to 120 miles for weddings but a travel fee will apply for me and any artist(s) who accompany me. All other single appointments, including trials, will take place in Lincroft.
I am always so excited when a bride wants to use My Beauty Makeup Artistry for their day! I need a signed contract and a 50% non-refundable deposit to hold your date.
