I've been a HMUA for a little over 14 years, worked in the big city (LA) and now back in my hometown raising our 2 littles doing what I love most! I've worked all over the industry! I'm a licensed esthetician and really have found my happy place here with all my beautiful brides! I still love working on sets, all sorts of events but there's just something about being there for someone on their big day that never gets old. I've been a bride myself and can attest to the overwhelming mix of emotions that come with planning such an important day. SO I'm here to ease a bit of that for you as your day of artist! xoxo Amanda

“I went back and forth on wedding hair so many times, and I am so grateful I found Kelsey. She’s the perfect mix of warm, sweet, and incredibly meticulous. She truly listens. I kept wavering between an updo and wearing my hair down, and she walked me through what was realistic with my hair, what would complement my dress, and how to achieve the overall vibe I wanted. She brought my exact vision to life — a modern, slightly messy French-twist-inspired updo with soft pieces in the front — and it turned out even better than I imagined. I received so many compliments throughout the night, and best of all, it held up flawlessly through strong wind and hours of dancing. I couldn’t have asked for a better stylist. Highly, highly recommend!”

“It was such a huge pleasure having Zayra do my bridal hair and makeup. From the jump, she was so sweet, professional, attentive, and extremely talented. Although I didn’t book a trial run, she absolutely killed it! She saw the vision and executed so well on all ends. The entire process was extremely smooth. Zayra also did hair and makeup for my mother and mother in law, both of which came out just as beautiful.

They continue their hair and makeup education to bring you the very best and latest beauty trends!

“Bianca and Katie, who run MUAH, are absolutely fantastic! From booking, to the trial, to the big day itself, everything was seamless and stress-free. Going into the process of finding a makeup artist, I was nervous about not looking or feeling like myself — I just wanted to feel like “me,” but elevated. The moment I met Bianca, I knew she could make that happen. On my wedding day, I felt stunning — and the very first thing my husband said during our first look was, “OMG, you look like yourself!” (He had been nervous too after hearing some of our friends’ horror stories.) All of my bridesmaids got compliments all night about their hair and makeup, with guests asking where they had it done. The MUAH team even finished ahead of schedule and was able to fit in two extra people for services, which was such a gift. Beyond their incredible talent, Bianca, Katie, and their team were kind, respectful, flexible, and such a joy to be around. I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a hair and makeup team in the area — they truly went above and beyond!”

With years of experience, I love working with my clients to create their desired look that will leave them feeling beautiful and confident. I am an on location MUA which means I go to you! I believe all brides should feel pampered and worry free on their big day!

“I am a minimal makeup girly but when my wedding day was coming up, I wasn't sure whether I should go the DIY route (as was most of my wedding), until a friend recommended Santana. Makeup by Santana was an absolute pleasure to work with for my wedding day! From the very beginning, Santana's communication was clear, consistent, and she was open to my ideas, while also helping me narrow down and paint the picture of the look I was going for. Santana asked thoughtful questions during our trial makeup and then again on wedding day about the looks we had discussed prior, but was she was also assertive in guiding me towards the perfect beauty look (i.e., making minor changes such as lashes and asking if I was still okay with a certain look, color, etc.). On the day of, Santana made me feel incredibly comfortable and relaxed, which allowed her to work her magic and create a flawless makeup application that lasted all night long. The quality of Santana's work was truly exceptional and worth every penny - I've never felt more glamorous! I would highly recommend Makeup by Santana to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and communicative beauty team to be part of their special day.”

Raven Reed | Makeup & Hair is a San Francisco–based luxury bridal styling company serving Napa Valley, Carmel, and destinations worldwide. Led by founder Raven Reed, our team is known for refined, skin-forward artistry that photographs flawlessly and feels effortless in real life. Every experience is calm, intentional, and tailored to the woman in the chair—elevating her natural beauty rather than masking it. Whether preparing for an intimate elopement or a multi-day celebration, Raven and her artists bring an editorial eye and a deep respect for the moment, creating looks that are modern, timeless, and unmistakably you.

“Raven did my bridal make up for my wedding in San Francisco in 2019 and she was absolutely amazing! About 2 years ago I faced the daunting situation of hunting for a make up artist in the US while living in Australia. This presented a number of obstacles but Raven never made it feel that way. She was always responsive and willing to go out of her way to talk with me or provide advice. But the best thing about Raven is that she genuinely cares about making her clients happy and will go the extra mile to make sure of that. At our make up trial, she refused to leave until she knew I was happy! A difficult task when working with someone like me who isn't used to wearing a lot of make up and hadn't had their make up done professionally since I was 18. Raven tackled this challenge with so much positive energy and never once made me feel guilty for not quite knowing what I wanted. And on the day Raven perfectly captured the natural, but polished look that I was after. I absolutely loved my make up and received so many compliments throughout the day and night.”

“If I could give Kim Baker Beauty more than 5 stars, I would!! My wife and I got married in Saratoga, California a couple of weeks ago and we couldn't have been more thrilled with Kim, Lupe, and Steven. We got hair and makeup for ourselves and our bridesmaids, junior bridesmaids, and even a little kid makeup for our flower girls. Our priorities were to feel present on our wedding day and to feel like ourselves, just a little more polished. We don't wear makeup on a day to day basis, and so we didn't want fake lashes or extensions. Kim worked with us to help us achieve our vision for our hair and makeup and encouraged us to give her extensive notes about what we didn't like at our preview (SO hard to do as a people pleaser, but Kim created a safe space where we were able to do so). My wife Ali thought she wanted a glowy look, but ended up going completely non-glowy on wedding day and LOVED it. She struggles to have her hair hold a curl for more than an hour, and Kim did such a good job her hair was still wavy the morning after the wedding after sleeping on it all night! I found out at our preview how particular I am about having my makeup done, and Kim let me do my eyeliner and eyebrows myself on our wedding day. It was the perfect balance of feeling pampered by Kim but still feeling in control of the things I am very picky about! Both of us have very sensitive scalps, and Kim made sure each and every pin felt comfortable and wasn't pinching. It made a HUGE difference in our stamina throughout our long crazy wedding to not have the added sensory nightmare of pins buried in our heads. Full disclosure, Kim is a dear friend of mine. But she and her team also hit it off with the rest of our bridal party! They're in selfies taken while getting ready, and they even got our shy junior bridesmaids chatting and laughing. We are so grateful for how they made our wedding morning feel organized, calm, and fun! If you're not sure whether to book Kim Baker Beauty, take it from me - there's none better.”

“How lucky was I to have found April for my special day! I got in touch with April through a referral from a friend who had nothing but good things to say about their experience. My initial consult made me feel more at ease and helped me decide what look to go with since it can be overwhelming! I also opted to see April to get my hair cut and colored right before the wedding, and felt confident and pretty, and enjoyed getting to visit and chat with April before the main event. On my wedding day she did hair for my three bridesmaids as well before styling me. They all had a great experience and looked amazing! April executed my romantic vision, and even added in some flowers to match my bouquet. I loved how it turned out, and my hair stayed up and secure all day and night. I loved working with April for my special day, but I love even more that we remained friends! She is fun, funny, creative, and brings a calming energy. She also continues to do my cuts and colors. I always do and always will recommend April!”
