Genesis Montilva San Francisco Makeup Artist

Happy Monday 🫶🏽

For this engagement photoshoot, I created a soft, romantic glam that felt elegant without being overpowering. The focus was on flawless skin, subtle definition, and a soft matter finish, the perfect balance for timeless photos!

There’s nothing I love more than when a bride says:
“I feel comfortable with makeup.” 🥹
That’s when I know my job is to just enhance her beauty and make her feel like the best version of herself🫶🏽

Come with me behind the scenes, this time crossing the gorgeous golden gate!! and let me know in the comments if you want part two with her dress and her mom’s glam ✨

From 2016 to 2025 🥹

Doing her makeup again made me realize how far I’ve come in this journey and how much more I have to grow 🫶🏽

Moments like this make me so grateful 🙏🏻

Tell me! would you trust your cousin to do your glam? Tag her in the comments 👀
