My Approach
I've been doing makeup professionally for over 20 years and have trained in the romance capital of the world - Paris - making me particularly well suited to deliver on “Trés Chic”.
I would describe my makeup style as sophisticated, always aiming for soft glamour and gorgeous radiance. I want my clients to look the absolute best version of themselves - never overdone - always perfectly polished, flawless and timeless - because wedding photos tend to hang around.
Not really a makeup person? Don’t worry. You're in good hands. I specialize in non-makeup wearers. (No one will ever know…) Looking for a dramatic look? Just say the word, and we can make your look as bold and dramatic as you wish!
No matter what look you're after, we'll give you a look you'll love.

This is our chance to experiment, to nail the look you’re after and to make sure it holds up perfectly after you leave. It also eliminates any guesswork on your wedding day and I’ll provide a few beauty tips to prepare your skin before the big day. You bring your pinterest board, I’ll bring the makeup.
Makeup Trials typically take 90 minutes and take place at my Calgary Studio near Marda Loop. Book a trial before you book for your wedding or book as part of the package.

Top Tip - plan your bachelorette party after your trial and see how your makeup performs under pressure!
Armed with a plan from our trial, I’ll get to work on making you your most beautiful. Wedding day makeup demands long-wear, (happy)tear-proof makeup that will look flawless all day long and in photos… forever! I use only the best quality makeup, I use the latest techniques and aim to send you down the aisle in style.

#1 - Check the online calendar here to see if your wedding date is available.
#2 - Click here to schedule a trial if you'd like to meet in person and have your makeup done before committing to your wedding date.
#3 - OR, if you’re fully ready to commit, then book into my calendar here for your wedding date and I will be in touch to finalize your quote and coordinate the 50% booking deposit and trial date.
Your makeup look is planned and discussed before we even meet in person. We’ll take into account your features, your desired look, as well as your wedding dress. I also use long-wear makeup techniques and waterproof products to ensure you look flawless all day long. This takes slightly longer to apply than a usual makeup application - so be prepared for a little extra pampering time. We usually allow a good 75 minutes.
Yes, but your trial can be booked any time to make sure we’re a good fit before you book me for your wedding. Alternatively, you can book me for your wedding and then we can coordinate the trial at a later date. This trial is our chance to plan and do your ideal wedding makeup look and make sure you are 100% happy with your look and that it holds up perfectly for you after you leave.
Please note: no wedding dates will be held in my calendar without a booking deposit.
Makeup takes place on location at the venue of your choosing.
We proudly serve the most discerning brides in Calgary, Canmore, Banff, Lake Louise, Fernie and have worked in most of the gorgeous mountain, city, and prairie venues across southern Alberta.
If your wedding is local, everything is outlined above. I won’t charge for the makeup I use, but you can purchase lashes and touch up kits.
Travel fee: Outside of City of Calgary limits ($75/hour of drive time + $0.50/KM for gas/mileage). There is no travel fee for locations within Calgary city limits.
Parking Charges for Downtown/Hotels: Incurred costs are expensed back to client.
I can provide makeup for the rest of your bridal party and wedding guests that is tailored to their unique preferences; making sure your whole wedding party looks gorgeous.
Working alone, I can comfortably accommodate group sizes up to 6 (assuming we have sufficient get-ready time). For groups of 7 + or when timing is tight, a second well experienced makeup artist will be brought along. (Additional artist rate $100 flat fee for coordinating + booking).
No. I specialize in wedding makeup and do not offer wedding hair. I am not a jack of all trades, but I am a master of one! ( makeup )
No wedding date is held without a 50% booking deposit.
Balance owing on the wedding is required 2 weeks prior to the event.
If the booking is canceled more than 6 months in advance the deposit will be returned less a $200 admin fee. Bookings canceled less than 6 months in advance are non-refundable, they are however transferable to a different date (we cannot guarantee availability) or you can use the amount as a credit for future makeup application services.
