Carley Artistry - Makeup & Hair

So far the most requested (and my favorite) wedding hairstyle for 2026 😍
I’ve been living for these slightly undone, whimsical takes on the classic French roll.
Do we love it?

From 5am - 5:30pm… It was a long one, but a happy one!

All the clients were fantastic!

What is number one was in Bradford, and the girls were listening to 2000s club hits 😎
300 grams of extensions in waist length Hollywood waves at 5:45 am wasn’t on my bingo card, but we slayed! 😅

When I got to wedding number two, we kept my morning drive playlist of grocery store bangers going and it was a whole mood! 😂

The weather however was NOT.

In all my years of doing this for a living it’s hasn’t rained on any of my brides! Happy to keep my streak alive as both of these weddings were for other teams 😂 and there wasn’t much outdoor action ❤️

Hot Tip: Smart brides make backup plans in May 😉

I’ve been meaning to make one of these for years, how did I doc and what do you want to see more of??

I’ve been doing makeup for nearly 15 years 🙈

In that time, I have done everything from the naturally beautiful true to you glam that you see often on our page, to full glam makeup for theater, gothic makeup for themed weddings, ethereal euphoria inspired makeup for bachelorette parties, natural men’s makeup for headshots, drag looks, editorial men’s and women’s makeup for fashion shows, clowns and jokers, cats and witches, vampires, sugar skulls, goblins, burns, scars, bullet wounds, black eyes, tears for film, dirty fingernails and ultra clean makeup for hand models, and both character makeup and real life makeup for cancer patients.

We often aren’t allowed to post commercial and film work because we don’t hold rights to the content. Sometimes we have to rush our photos to get a client to set or to their event, and the lighting or facial expression just isn’t it.
And of course, like today, some clients simply ask us not to post - so we do not!

We always advise clients to look for an artist whose work clearly shows examples of what they need done, as there are so many gta makeup artists with varying levels of skill.

Clients don’t know what they don’t know! So we often miss out on bookings that we would have slayed 💅🏽

That’s it, that’s the post!

Pearl is an actress in Toronto and needed some fresh, natural headshots. She came in a little frazzled from the stress of the week, but soon relaxed in the chair while we chatted about everything from pet love to hauntings 👻

I gave her a super natural glow and emphasized her unique, stunning features. Her high cheeks bones and plush lips are so dreamy! 😍

So excited anytime I get to work with and can’t wait to see the final shots!

Nudge nudge: If you haven’t updated your headshots since before 2020… you’re over due! I’d love to help you get your best ever shots!!
