I am a passionate bridal and special event hair and makeup artist dedicated to making clients feel confident, radiant, and completely themselves on their most unforgettable day. With 8 years of experience in the industry, I specialize in creating timeless, elegant looks tailored to each client’s unique features, style, and vision. I offer a range of hair and makeup styles from natural to full glam, with most clients falling somewhere in between based on their personal preferences!

Abi from Beloved and Radiant Makeup Artistry was truly a gift on my wedding day. She did both my hair and makeup, and I can honestly say I have never felt more beautiful. Abi created a timeless, elegant look that made me feel like the most radiant bride in the world — classic, confident, and completely myself. Beyond her incredible talent, Abi brought a comforting, uplifting presence, and genuine joy into that morning that meant so much to me. My mother had passed away unexpectedly just two months before the wedding, and her absence left a deep ache in my heart. Abi filled that space with so much kindness and genuine care. She made me feel seen, supported, and at peace — as though I had a dear friend by my side. She created a space where I felt safe to be vulnerable and still experienced laughter and peace amid all the emotion. Not only did she make me feel beautiful on the outside, but she also helped me feel radiant within — something I will never forget. I can’t recommend Abi and Beloved and Radiant Makeup Artistry enough. Her talent, kindness, and heartfelt presence made my wedding day truly special.

Awarded Best of Zola
One of the best decisions I made for my wedding day was signing JW Artistry! I’m so pleased I had Erica, Jessica, and Marissa do my hair and make up as well as my five bridesmaids, mom, and godmother. I’m not one that wears makeup often and my skin is very sensitive, but Jessica did an incredible job making sure I was comfortable, the makeup was not heavy, and the look was exactly what I was going for. She was also extremely meticulous and accommodating during my trial! Jessica is clearly very talented, and knows exactly what she’s doing. I loved my makeup for the wedding day! It looked so natural, but enhanced my features perfectly. Now in terms of Janna and Angela, I am so grateful to both of them and how organized and responsible they are with running their business. They were so communicative, gave me updates, answered all my questions, and showed a lot of integrity throughout the whole process to make sure that I was feeling confident about my artists, my timeline, and my experience. Truly so professional and trustworthy. And finally, Erica, who was hands down one of the shining stars of my entire wedding day. I’m still in disbelief with Erica‘s devotion to my group. She really went above and beyond on the day. From keeping our flower girl busy and making sure she doesn’t touch the tools to helping my mom find her lost phone to staying till the very last minute to make sure I didn’t need any additional touchups to walk me through every step of her doing my hair to literally spending several minutes with a single individual hair and making sure it wasn’t in the way…I could not be more grateful. My jaw literally dropped when she showed me the picture of the back of my hairstyle. She also saved the day when I got a floral piece for my mother that had a white ribbon that needed to be concealed and Erica masterfully covered it up so that mom did end up wearing it on the day. My girls loved their hair and makeup too. The artists did fantastic with mature skin. And guests were stunned with how gorgeous everyone looked. I know a thing or two about makeup and Jessica is very much in the know about certain products, techniques, and trendy looks. From hydrogrip primers to ABH palettes, she knows her stuff. Also, one of my bridesmaids is a hair dresser and she was also very impressed. In fact, one bridesmaid had really short hair and Marissa nailed it somehow! Working with the length and creating a gorgeous look. She also pulled out that Fenty bronzer because she ain’t playinnn. Every artist was on time, professional, ready to go with plenty of high-quality tools and products. So grateful for this team!

Rose did my hair and our bridal party's hair and did an excellent job! We did a hair preview a few weeks prior and she remembered exactly what I wanted. She also remembered some of the issues we had with the style at the preview and modified it to make it work best for the day. She brought extra bobby pins and hairspray and showed up perfectly on time (in fact she was a little early!). She was great and I highly recommend her! Adorn Salon did a great job coordinating the hair service. The stylist I was originally paired with was unexpectedly unable to work, but they were honest and worked quickly to ensure that they found a replacement.

Tisha and her team did a wonderful job with my October 2024 wedding. I could not have been happier with this hair and make up vendor. Tisha is kind, easy to work with, truly cares about the brides and families she works with, and is very professional. I had about 20-25 ladies that needed to be ready (both hair and make up) by 11:30am that day. Tisha talked to me well in advance to make sure we had the right number of artists, she asked for everyone's hair and make up preference in advance so her team knew what to expect/ supplies to bring, and she works well with everyone from auntie to bridesmaids to bride to flower girl. She kept me consistently updated and did a trial with me to make sure i was comfortable. I highly recommend this vendor if you're a bride looking for someone to have your back. I could not be more grateful to this company.

I’m Jasmine, A Richmond, Virginia based makeup artist dedicated to enhancing the natural beauty of those I’ve had the pleasure of working with, and those I’ve yet to meet. What began as a love for makeup through creativity and self-expression has grown into a meaningful career centered around connection and helping others feel like the best versions of themselves.

I had the pleasure of having Jasmine do my bridal makeup and the makeup for my bridal party. Immediately from our consultation and trial at Melt, Jasmine was welcoming and calm, yet also driven and confident in her skills. She took the time to know what exactly I was and was not looking for. She took note of things I was particular about (filling in my eyebrows) and ensured they were exactly how I wanted before moving on. She even fielded my never ending questions about skin care since she is so knowledgeable! On my wedding day, Jasmine was promptly on time and a calm presence that helped keep me at ease. Jasmine was happy to make any changes throughout the makeup application process with no issue (I was difficult and changed my lip color 3 times). My entire bridal party still continues to rave about Jasmine’s work and claim it was the best professional makeup they’ve had. We all felt like enhanced versions of ourselves—it was exactly what we were looking for. The small kit of to-go and touch up items that Jasmine provided each of us ensured our makeup looked perfect the entire night. I would highly recommend Jasmine for any and all bridal/formal makeup services! Melt is lucky to have her.

She has a calming presence that immediately puts you at ease, and she listens closely to what you want (even if you’re not sure how to describe it!). On my wedding day, she made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself — still me, just elevated in all the right ways. I would 100% work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist who is both technically skilled and genuinely wonderful to be around.

I highly recommend Artistry by Marquita! My wedding makeup, created by Marquita, was absolutely beautiful but didn't turn me into someone unrecognizable. During the trial run, the hair stylist, Mona, took my vague description of "Game of Thrones but maybe a bit Jane Austen?" and gave me a gorgeous braided updo. On the wedding day, Marquita and Mona arrived on time and finished hair and makeup for me and the ladies in our wedding party (who also looked fabulous) with time to spare. They were kind, responsive, and collaborative throughout. It was great to work with both of them and I recommend them wholeheartedly.

They had such a calming and genuine presence and my girls & I just loved sitting in their chairs. They were very good about asking questions about our preferences and were very attentive to achieving our desired looks.

Bridal beauty is my passion—and it all starts with great skin. With over 6 years of experience and more than 200 weddings under my belt, I’ve had the honor of making brides look and feel their most beautiful. My love for makeup naturally led me into esthetics, where I discovered a deep appreciation for the science behind radiant skin. Now, I offer full-service beauty, from personalized skincare treatments to flawless makeup, lashes, brows, full-body waxing, and spray tans—helping you glow from the inside out.

I found Ashton while looking for someone to do my makeup for engagement pictures, and since that first appointment, I was hooked! Ashton does incredible work. I didn’t have a ton of inspiration pictures but after describing what I was looking for she executed my vision to a T. I trust her to take her time, use high-quality products, make sure I’m happy with the results and help me look like my best self! She’s also just a lovely human so I feel comfortable sitting in her chair for an hour.

Jess with Beauty By Jess was truly amazing! I had never had professional makeup done before and Jess eased my nerves, talked to me about my overall vision, and executed it flawlessly. Jess checked in after my trial to make sure I was happy with everything and constantly asked my opinion. I truly could not have asked for a better makeup stylist on my wedding day!
