“First of all, I discovered Monica’s Instagram page through a mutual friend, who is a stylist at the top of her game (hair). Browsing through Monica’s posts, I immediately loved her work - every look she created was flawless - smooth and natural, while highlighting and accentuating each subject’s best features. And that’s exactly what I wanted for my wedding look - to be my most beautiful, flawless SELF; to look amazing but still look like myself. When I asked my friend/hair stylist for her opinion of Monica’s work, she appropriately referred to it as “true artistry”. Fast forward to my wedding day. After having had one makeup trial with Monica trying to incorporate some of my wedding hues (at my request) months prior, I decided on the morning of my wedding that I wanted to go for a different palette (warm and neutral) and an overall different look. Not only was Monica unphased by this last minute (and, for me, daring) change of plans, but she effortlessly executed the look beyond my expectations. I was admittedly a little nervous when I made the request that morning (I felt bad putting her on the spot like that), but i was confident in Monica’s talent and I was also reassured and calmed by her laid back and warm nature. And it seems that it was all meant to be. I have never looked and felt as beautiful as I did that day. I received countless compliments and to this day am still reminded of how “stunning” I looked, all thanks to Monica. People have sought out her services through me, and I will always keep her on speed dial for special occasions. Six years after having had the pleasure of booking Monica, I still occasionally browse through her portfolio and see that she continues to do it all (from weddings to editorial and fashion week). I’m impressed by her professionalism and humility with all her clients; she’s true to her craft, and gives every client the VIP treatment she believes is deserved.”
