In high school my love for makeup began flourishing with accepting small jobs doing homecoming/prom makeup. This paved the way for me to go to both Paul Mitchell, and Aveda, for my education in cosmetology/esthetics. At age 21 I settled into Ohio (Hudson to start), and worked with a company that employed multiple girls they contracted out to do weddings/photoshoots/film production jobs in the Cleveland/Columbus area.
Working at Sephora as a Licensed Beauty Advisor, I gained an incredible amount of knowledge from celebrity artists, trainings and education, while performing paid services.
From there I joined my business partner, Taylor Rosemary Beauty, in creating a beautiful brand of Taylor's own network of girls to employ/educate. Based out of Cleveland/Pittsburgh Taylor caters to glam weddings + more. I have done over 500+ weddings at this point and keep adding every weekend to that number! I have also trained multiple girls in the art of makeup application on both self & others. I still collaborate on projects with Taylor Rosemary Beauty, as I am still engaged with her company/brand. I am so proud of how far Taylor has come and hope to always support her. I'm blessed to have the opportunity to branch off from her as well and grow my own personal brand, something I can be proud of myself!
Most recently I attended Gimme a Hand Academy of Nails in 2024 and am now a Nail Tech as well!
I am a licensed esthetician in the state of Ohio. I keep my licensing current.

You are than welcome to let me use any of your personal products if requested! It‘s not uncommon for people to want to buy a favorite lipstick before an event/wedding, that way you are able to reapply through the night if needed. Foundation shade matching is never an issue with the wide range of colors in my kit, however if you have a foundation formula/shade you are in love with, I'm never opposed to using that as well.
Although I’m more than open to the idea of using your products, I do have a large variety of products and would love to have you use those as well.
Norvell is my favorite spray tan formula. This is what I will have stocked in my kit, in "Venetian". If looking for a VERY dark tan please specify so I can have a darker solution available to you. I recommend "Venetian" on 90% of my clients. All sprays will be sent an informational sheet at booking.
A clean, makeup free face is expected before makeup application.
My biggest skincare recommendations:
-Dermaplane facial 1 week to 3 days before wedding
-Exfoliate with both a face safe scrub to slough away dead skin, with also using a gentle chemical exfoliant as well. Example: day one use Wishful (Yo Glow AHA & BHA Facial Enzyme Scrub), day two take a day off, the day three use Dr. Dennis Gross (Alpha Beta Daily Peel Pads). Repeat for up to 3 months before wedding.
- You are more than welcome to bring your favorite lip color, go to foundation. I encourage those who prefer an application later in the night, to buy that lipstick ahead of time, that way you can carry it around with you through the night.
Charlotte Tilbury has my favorite formula for both comfort and longevity. She also has beautiful colors!

What I have found that works best is if we have a start and end time and (most) everyone is expected to be there at the beginning of the start time. There is to be a least one person ready at the start time who I can begin working on, if not there will be someone who won't be able to get done as I am on a strict time budget. Along with the possibility of others not getting finished or my work being rushed, there will also be an additional charge. I care about my work, and especially your time and money as well. Things never go to plan on a busy and stressful day, I'm usually always more than accommodating, however I do add a 50$ fee that will be invoiced post wedding if I am delayed more than 20 minutes on the start time (without prior notice).
FOR BRIDES: This is mainly usually the only person I will have a specific time we will be starting and ending. This will be communicated on the day of deposit/booking. This is also a strictly followed schedule and other services will be paused so the bride may be finished at good time. The schedule with the bride varies, but it's always put within the last two hours of the time budget as we want it to be the freshest!
If there is anyone who specifically needs to be done/started by a certain time I'm more than able to do that, as well as make an itinerary for those who request. In good faith, I promise you after my experience, this is what works best.
Most all services require a booking fee. This is simply to protect both you and our schedules. It locks in a price and time slot for you, while it gives us comfort as well in knowing you take this event seriously. The booking fee is nonrefundable. Booking fees are 30% of the total price and put towards your payment, while full payment is collected one week prior.
(Weddings only).
Contact pre booking for confirmation and consultation. Amount of services available to take depends fully on start and end time. Most all services take 45min each.
All Saturdays and Fridays require a minimum of 3 services. Rare exceptions are made for Bride-Only, SOS situations.
There are multiple reasons why I have a minimum for my Saturdays & Fridays. If you have any questions as to those reasonings, feel comfortable to ask me about more information!
Although I do prefer a 5-6 service wedding, I do have extra artists available for larger service numbers this year!
I usually time each service by 45 minutes. I cannot promise another artist will be available, but most of the time I should have access to an additional artist. I will confirm with you that we will have extra artists at the time of inquiry. The max amount of services I accept is completely subject to our time frame.
*** I do also have the option of contracting out one of my trusted artists to you on a date I may not be personally available due to already being booked. You can learn more about this under "additional artists" on the main menu ***
It will be clearly stated in my contract sent to you pre deposit what is expected of each person. This protects both of us and gives you the best experience I can give to you. I care about my work a lot, and this is more than just a passive income or side hustle, so it's important to me we both get the most of our time together.
The only two additional fees that are not included in the service itself would be the travel fee and a time penalty.
Travel fees start at 1$ a mile. If there is multiple artists the travel fee will be multiplied by amount of artists.
Time penalties are invoiced post event if I'm unable to get someone to work on after a 20 min buffer to the start time. Again, I care about our time together and starting late means someone wont get done, or my work will be overly rushed. I also appreciate when my clients respect my time and recognize it is valuable to me.
NOTE: Junior makeup/hair is priced specifically for a reason!! Please be respectful as well of my age range as I unfortunately will have to invoice you post wedding for the additional remainder when age is older than originally booked. If you find the pricing to be out of your budget for those under 18, but are still considering it, communicate this with me and I will go on a base-by-base case of what I feel an appropriate price would be.
This is not an additional fee; however, when doing services for over 5+ hour there must be water available. It's important I'm in the best shape to be of service to you, and that includes taking care of my body! Just like with a regular job you may need a lunch break; I will need a moment to drink a little water and raise my blood sugar. Unfortunately, many times I am unable to have access to these things on my own because many wedding/event locations do not have water fountains or any kind of gas station/restaurant nearby. This has never been an issue because I know both my clients, and myself, prioritize everyone's health; it will however be mentioned in the contract. I do my absolute best to at least keep snacks with me in my car for emergencies and don't need you to worry too much about food, water access is most important.
Any event that is outside of 5 hr drive from Cleveland or Tampa is included to be a destination wedding. Destination weddings have packages available, instead of a set price per service. This does not include travel & hotel. 100% of travel and overnight stays are to be included in final invoice, or given information for bookings at least 2 weeks prior of event. A little extra to say thank you for allowing me to travel, I offer free 1-2 hr touch ups, or discounted pricing on additional services.
