Tell us about your company...
I am a professionally trained make-up artist with more than 20 years' experience in the make-up industry. Make-up is my absolute passion, it's all I've ever known in my whole working career. I can honestly say I have never done a day's work as it's my hobby. I am very privileged to be particularly sought after for my wedding make-up. 

What's your signature bridal beauty look?
I am a big believer in championing natural beauty, especially for brides on their wedding day. My aim is to enhance beautiful features through the correct make-up techniques, in order to create a long-lasting, flawless make-up look that works both in real life, as well as translating perfectly to your photos.

Your eyes will be emphasised, soft sculpted cheeks, complemented with the perfect lip colour tones. A classical timeless make-up look, you'll be able to look back through your photos in years to come and still say how wonderful you looked on your wedding day.

What else do you love about working in the wedding industry?
I also enjoy collaborating on photoshoots including editorial features in top wedding magazines. As an Essex and Hertfordshire-based make-up artist I am perfectly based to travel to all of the best wedding venues that the South East has to offer – from the beauty of Essex, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire countryside, to the most prestigious London venues. I have become a recommended supplier for many popular wedding venues including Blake Hall, Leez Priory, Fanhams Hall to name but a few.

What's your advice to brides?
I understand that a bride's wedding day is one of the most important days of her life. It is essential that she is happy and confident with her make-up. Having a professional make-up artist on hand who understands what works for her, under the scrutiny of a high-definition lens, really makes a difference. It's such a confidence boost that I can achieve this for her.
