    AMAZING

    Lucas was hands-down my favorite wedding vendor! He is the ultimate hype man and one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! When it came to my makeup, I have genuinely never felt more beautiful in my entire life. I received SO many compliments throughout the day about how amazing I looked, and Lucas somehow made me feel like the absolute best version of myself without ever feeling like I was wearing “too much” makeup. It was flawless. But what makes Lucas truly special is that you’re getting so much more than an incredible makeup artist when you hire him. His energy lights up every room, and he brought such a fun (emphasis on fun), positive, calming presence to my wedding morning. He stayed through after the ceremony to touch me up, and he went so far above and beyond by sending me so many amazing pictures and videos from my special day. Those little moments are things I will treasure forever. I am literally looking for future events just so I can have an excuse to hire Lucas again. He is truly the best, and I cannot recommend him enough!!

    Beyond Perfection

    Lucas is the most talented makeup artist I've ever met/experienced. I've never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding (and the day of my makeup trial) and it's without a doubt because of him. My wedding make up lasted perfectly all day and night (12 hours: from first look through the after party). He thinks of everything, and even built in buffer time to his own schedule that day so that he could stay through our first look and private vows, in case I cried, before leaving for another client. So professional, so talented, so kind, and SO FUN. Hire him immediately for any event.
