MOTHER OF THE BRIDE

Beautiful makeup isn’t about covering her skin
-it’s about celebrating it!

Every brush stroke has a purpose.
Every product is carefully chosen.
Every blend is designed to enhance your natural beauty, soften your features and create a fresh, radiant, youthful finish that still looks like you.

As a mature skin specialist, I understand that mature skin deserves a completely different approach.
It’s not about following trends or piling on products
-it’s about knowing exactly where to add light, lift and definition to create timeless, elegant makeup that photographs beautifully and lasts all day.

When you book me, you’re not just booking makeup for the bride.
You’re choosing an artist who can ensure your entire bridal party looks and feels incredible—from the bride to the mums, bridesmaids and flower girls.

Because when everyone feels confident, relaxed and beautiful, it transforms the whole morning… and those memories last forever…

If you’re planning your wedding and want every woman in your bridal party to feel like the very best version of herself, I’d love to be part of your day!

GREAT NORTHERN WEDDING AWARDS 2026 🏆
WINNER – HIGHLY COMMENDED MAKEUP ARTIST

Most of you see the beautiful side of my job.
The glowing brides, the happy tears, the laughter during bridal prep, the gorgeous venues and the excitement of wedding mornings.

What you don’t always see is the PERSON BEHIND THE BRUSHES.
This past year has been the hardest year of my life. I’ve shown up tired, angry, heartbroken and carrying more than anyone could ever see.
There were mornings where getting out of bed felt like the biggest achievement of the day.

BUT I STILL SHOWED UP.

Because when a bride chooses me to be part of the most important morning of her life, she deserves every ounce of my energy, my calm and my love.
And, in truth, every single wedding morning healed a little piece of my own heart too.

My brides gave me purpose when I needed it most. They reminded me who I am when I felt like I’d forgotten.

So receiving this award means so much more than recognition for my work.
It represents resilience.
It represents choosing to keep going, even when life feels impossibly heavy.
It represents every early start, every smile I found when I didn’t feel like smiling, and every woman who trusted me with one of the biggest moments of her life.

To every bride who voted for me—thank you. I love you more than you’ll ever know. It has been the honour of my life to stand beside you, and so many of you have become friends I’ll cherish forever.

Thank you for believing in me, especially when I was trying so hard to believe in myself.

Love always,
Your girl, Michelle
