I AM KATIE...

A WIFE TO MY AMAZING HUSBAND, 'MUM' TO OUR DOG YOGI AND A MAKEUP & HAIR ARTIST.
 
I LOVE NOTHING MORE THAN CREATING BEAUTIFUL BRIDES.

I came to the makeup industry after being stuck in a rut in my previous career. I had worked with horses since I left school and I no longer felt I was in the right place.
 
I sat down and realised I needed to make a change and do something I loved. The one thing that has always made me happy is making people smile and feel good about themselves. 
 
After realising the power of makeup and how incredible it can make you feel, I trained to become a professional makeup artist at college, gaining an international qualification in makeup artistry. A few years later I went on to train in hair with The Bridal Stylists.
 
I have now spent many years in the industry but I am always updating my skills, by attending workshops with incredible artists and doing new courses, to ensure my clients get the very best.
 

I AIM TO MAKE MY BRIDES LOOK LIKE THE 'WOW' VERSION OF THEMSELVES AND I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT MAKING PEOPLE LOOK AND FEEL BEAUTIFUL. 

I specialise in bespoke, luxury wedding make up and have the skills to make you look incredible not only in the flesh but in photographs too. 

I aim to ensure that my warm and fun personality allows the whole experience to be positive and enjoyable.

Look at my work!

  • The Bridal experience

    Your wedding day is one of the most special and important days of your life, so its important that you look and feel special too. 

    Each bride is totally unique and I want to make sure that we create a look that lets your personality and individuality shine through.

    I will work with you to make sure that you feel comfortable and confident when you say 'I Do'.

    After our first chat on email you have the option to have a video or phone call to meet and talk through your ideas for the big day. We can also create a pintrest board together for your ideal looks.

  • The Trial

    A makeup trial is your opportunity to tell me all about your vision for your wedding day. We will work together to create your perfect look.

    Trials ensure that the wedding day runs as smoothly as possible. Your bridal consultation will last around 90-120 minutes to make sure that we achieve the perfect look. I also include a set of complimentary lashes so feel free to use your trial before an event or photographs. I encourage you to put your makeup to the test.

    I am available for trials Monday - Thursday from 10 am - 2 pm. Dates and times are subject to availability. Please try to book your trial at least 2 months in advance.

    If you would like to arrange a trial for Friday- Sunday or on a Bank Holiday, fees may apply. Dates and times are subject to availability. Please contact me 2 - 6 months in advance for these in demand dates.

  • The wedding day!

    On the wedding day, I’ll help to make sure your morning runs like clockwork and that you’re all ready for the ceremony on time.
     
    The focus is on you and making sure that you’re comfortable, happy and relaxed. I’m good at creating space for brides who need it and joining in with the giggles, singing and dancing!

    Let’s take some images that really show the makeup look you have chosen. I love to take my own portfolio images, it’s important to me to be able to show my work off as I see it! Although i love receiving some of you professional images too!
     
    I will be on hand until you walk out of the door. I can help get bridesmaids into dresses, lace up the wedding dress, do up jewelry and shoes and make sure that you all have everything you need (drying bouquet stems, tissues, cutting out those tags we always forget!)

    Just before you walk out of the door to go down the aisle I will do final touch ups and make sure you look perfect!
