Bridal Makeup

BRIDE & BRIDAL PARTY

I have had the pleasure of doing bridal makeup for over 15 years. Each and every wedding is unique, and oh so special.

My intention is that your wedding day makeup and service is unforgettable, and I strive to highlight your natural beauty & create a look that reflects your personal style.

Pre- Wedding makeup trials are recommended to ensure we create the look that is perfect for you. These can be booked in advance on a day and time that best suits you.

I work as a freelance makeup artist & I can travel to you on your memorable day. I can offer to assist you or your planner with your wedding day run sheet to ensure the appropriate amount of time is accounted for makeup services in the schedule.

Wedding Guest Makeup

MAKEUP FOR FAMILY & FRIENDS

Guests travel from far & wide to attend Central Otago weddings of their loved ones.

I adore doing makeup for family and friends on these special days, making them feel beautiful and ready to celebrate with their best face forward!

Special Occasion Makeup

ANY & ALL OCCASIONS

There are so many occasions in our calendars that we want to look our best for!

Think… birthdays, events, galas, festivals, formals, balls, head shots, content creation, branding, engagements parties, hens parties, photo shoots, commercial work, family portraits…

I can create the perfect makeup look for your next event.

About me

Welcome,

I’m Kelly. A Wanaka based freelance makeup artist.

For years I dreamed of being a makeup artist and made that a reality when I completed a Diploma in Film, TV, Fashion and Special Effects Makeup from The Makeup School in Auckland. It is widely regarded as the leading makeup institution in New Zealand.

I then went on to win a paid internship from South Pacific Studios and work in the hair & makeup team on the set of New Zealand TV show Shortland Street. It gave me first hand insight into the fast paced world of film and television production, and I am grateful for this experience.

From there I started freelancing, and I based myself in beautiful Wanaka.

My makeup focus is mostly Bridal, Special Occasion and Commercial work for brands. I use an array of high quality makeup products, and I tailor the beautiful looks I create to the brief I have been given.

I look forward to meeting you and empowering you to put your best face forward.
