Hi, I’m Emily
Calm mornings. Makeup that lasts
I believe your wedding morning should feel calm, joyful, and entirely like you. As a licensed esthetician and makeup artist with more than ten years behind the brush, I begin with the skin, then build soft, long-wear makeup that photographs beautifully and holds from the first look to the last dance.
It’s more than makeup. It’s being a trusted part of an unforgettable day.
Based in Williamsburg, Virginia · Serving VA, MD, DC and beyond

Before you book
Your questions, answered
Q. How do I book?
Complete my inquiry form with your date, venue and party size. If I’m available, I send an estimate, then a contract through HoneyBook. Once it’s signed and the 50% deposit is paid, your date is held.
Q. When should I schedule my trial?
Two to six months before the wedding, so we have time to perfect your look and try color palettes.
Q. Do you work with larger bridal parties?
Absolutely. Additional guests are $125 each, and for parties of eight or more a second artist joins so no one feels rushed.
