Fab makeup by a fab lady!

Emma is an absolutely amazing makeup artist! Not only is she fantastic at her job, she makes you feel so at ease on your wedding day!

We had a pre-trial with Emma at our home, she was very tidy and professional!

On the wedding day she arrived at the venue right on time and got to work on our bridesmaids and MOB’s. She made everyone feel you were in good hands and listened to their wishes for how they wanted their makeup.

Me and my partner have very different asthetics when it comes to makeup and Emma matched our visions perfectly.

I would definitely recommend Emma to anyone wanting professional makeup done for a wedding or event.

Emma delivered a high quality service to myself and my bridesmaids. She met with us beforehand and done a full trial, selecting tones and products suited to each of us. This is a great opportunity to get to know each other too which really helps you relax on the big day! The make up on my wedding day was perfect and just the look I was wanting. It came across really well in photographs and stayed on for most, if not all the day. I would highly recommend Emma!
