Weddings

Full-day coverage, ceremony mornings, the wedding party, destination. I do the bride myself and bring a trusted team for larger parties, so everyone is camera-ready on schedule — from the getting-ready call to the last touch-up before the reception, with a trial beforehand and a written timeline your planner can work from.

Events & glam

Red carpet, galas, premieres, headshots, personal shoots and glam-and-go. On location, an hour in the chair, out before you need the room back. Most of these clients book again.

Editorial & commercial

Key make-up for campaign, editorial, film, television and music. Day and half-day bookings, own kit, Los Angeles based and travelling.
