“Last month I got married at The Sanctuary on Roosevelt Island, and I had the pleasure of working with Jackie Fanara, an artist from Melissa’s makeup team. She was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish- it felt like hanging out with an old friend! She is so incredible at making her clients feel comfortable, listened to, and pampered. She went completely above and beyond- when the bridal party was finishing photos outside and it started pouring, she got SOAKED while shielding my bridesmaids and making sure everyone was able to get safely from the park to the vehicles to inside the venue. She literally used herself as a shield and then proceeded to to help everyone get touch ups while they dried off- by the time the ceremony had started, no one would have had an idea that everyone had been rained on. By the end of the day, she was everyone’s best friend. She was an angel that day and I am so thankful she was my artist. If you’re looking for an incredibly talented artist who will charm you with her positive attitude and incredible sense of humor- Jackie is your gal. Special shout out to Tressa, who did the makeup for my mother in law and few other people’s on my husband’s side of the family- they all loved her and said that she made them feel so special! And of course, shout out to Melissa for being lovely and communicative while setting me up with her team!”

“Frann is AMAZING. She did my hair for my wedding as well as several of the bridal party and everyone looked amazing. Frann is warm, caring, flexible, and truly talented. I loved my hair when we did a trial, but “the hair spoke to her” on my wedding day so she changed it up a little (after asking me if it was cool!) and WOW. I could not have asked for anything more. She somehow took EXACTLY what I wanted from my imagination and translated it into my wedding day hair. I am so glad she was with me on my big day to make me feel beautiful, but also because she is a sweetheart and truly fun to hang out with!! Thank you, Frann!!”

“Mikayla and her team provided amazing hair and makeup services for myself and my bridal party for my wedding! I did a trial with them about 2 months before my wedding so I could see what looked best with my hair and complexion, and create the vision I had in mind for my bridal look. They were both so nice and heard what I had to say and worked with me to create the look I wanted. On the day of, they were super organized to get through each member of my bridal party in the time we had allotted. I didn’t have strict styles in mind for the other girls, so they were able to work with the variety of inspo. pictures my bridesmaids brought and made a beautiful and cohesive set of looks on each girl.

I specialize in natural glam, meaning makeup that looks and feels like YOU, just a little more radiant (glowing skin, bright eyes, enhanced features).

Each makeup look is carefully tailored to photograph beautifully and last through the first photos to the last dance. Every application is designed to last 15+ hours, through happy tears, sweat, hugs, and kisses.

“I had such a great experience working with Maura for our family Christmas photo shoot! She was incredibly friendly and made the whole process feel relaxed and easy—which is no small thing when you’re juggling a toddler and trying to look put-together. The makeup she did was exactly what I was hoping for: polished and photo-ready, but still totally natural. It didn’t feel heavy at all, and I still felt like myself (just the well-rested, glowing version!). She really listened to what I wanted and nailed the balance between festive and timeless.

Monica has been in the beauty industry for 6 years as a freelance bridal/event makeup artist and licensed cosmetologist. After graduating with a Bachelor's degree in education, she decided to change her path and follow her true passion: makeup artistry.

“Monica made me feel like the most beautiful, radiant version of myself on my wedding day. She listened to all the usual things I like and hate about when doing makeup and brought it to the next level. My bridesmaids and moms also looked incredible and raved about their makeup! She is also insanely sweet and made it feel like I was sitting and chatting with a really good friend. I will continue to keep up with her Instagram for all of her makeup recommendations and try to recreate my makeup the way she did it for my wedding. She was one of the best choices I made by far!!”

“Baylee literally brought my wedding hair dreams to life! I showed her inspo pics and she took it from there and absolutely nailed it. She heard the small adjustments I wanted to make from my trial (even though I explained them horribly) and I was so in love with the final style. I look at my photos of my wedding hair all the time. Such a great stylist and wonderful woman to work with!”
