The MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU’LL WEAR ON YOUR WEDDING DAY?
CONFIDENCE
For me, the most important part of bridal makeup is that you feel comfortable and confident. Because when you feel confident, you can stop worrying about how you look and be fully present in every moment of your wedding day.
My approach is all about helping you feel like the very best version of yourself. Think glowing skin, softly defined eyes and makeup that feels comfortable to wear, photographs beautifully and, most importantly, still feels like you.
The goal isn't for everyone to notice your makeup. It's for them to notice how incredible you look.
YOUR WEDDING MAKEUP ISN'T ABOUT LOOKING LIKE A BRIDE.
IT’S ABOUT LOOKING LIKE YOU.
I know the idea of ‘bridal beauty’ can feel overwhelming, especially if you’re someone who isn’t a big makeup wearer and having your makeup done feels completely out of your comfort zone.
You've got a hundred other decisions to make, and somewhere amongst choosing flowers, stationery and seating plans, you're also expected to know exactly how you want to look on one of the most photographed days of your life.
Maybe you’re worrying about…
What if I don’t recognise myself?
What if I don't actually know what makeup suits me?
What if I feel like I'm wearing too much?
That’s what I’m here for. You don't need to enquire with me knowing exactly what makeup look you want.
I'll guide you when you're unsure and, together, we'll work out what makes you feel amazing.
Whether you wear makeup every day or barely ever, we'll create a look that feels true to you - so that when you look in the mirror you think:
“Yep, that's me. And I look bloody amazing!”
MAKEUP IS ONLY PART OF THE EXPERIENCE
Your makeup artist is going to be one of the people you spend a big part of your wedding morning with, so who you have in the room with you really matters.
As a naturally quieter person, I create a calm, grounding space where you can relax, take a breath and just enjoy being looked after.
I’ll listen, check in, and make sure you feel completely at ease, so you can fully enjoy every moment.

THEN, WE FIGURE OUT YOUR MAKEUP
3 - 6 months before your wedding day, we’ll have a two-hour appointment together at my home in Norwich.
You don't need to arrive knowing exactly what you want. We'll talk through what you normally wear, what you love, what you absolutely don't want, your skin, your dress, your flowers, your photography and, most importantly, how you want to feel.
We'll create the look together and refine anything that doesn't feel quite right, so when your wedding morning arrives, there’s no wondering "Will I like my makeup?” - you already know you will.
FIRST, LET'S GET YOU BOOKED
Once you've sent over your wedding details, I'll confirm my availability and send you a bespoke quote. If you'd like to go ahead, you'll be able to secure your date with your signed contract and £100 non-refundable booking fee.
From there, everything you need will be in your personal client portal - including your booking details, bridal prep guides and a place to keep your inspiration images.
YOUR BRIDAL JOURNEY
From your first enquiry to the moment you're getting ready to walk down the aisle, I'll be there to guide you through it all.
AND THEN IT'S YOUR WEDDING DAY!
Before your wedding morning, I'll create a schedule for you and your bridal party, so everyone knows when they're having their makeup done and we have plenty of time to get you ready without rushing.
I'll make sure your makeup is finished at least an hour before you need to leave, so there's time for the things you don't want to miss - getting into your dress, doing a first look with your loved ones, taking those getting-ready photos and, inevitably, having a little emotional moment.
I'll stay until you're completely ready to go, including any final touch-ups and those last little checks before you leave.
