About Katie
If I had to pick one word to describe me, it would be creative. Before I picked up the makeup brushes, it was pencils and paints. It was clear from a child that makeup artistry and hair styling would be a huge passion of mine, as I would rummage through my Mum’s makeup bag and place her velcro rollers in my hair. During my teenage years I experimented with makeup and taught myself how to braid hair and soon became the friend that would be doing all the girls eyeliner before a night out.
I would call myself an alternative individual, if you like heavy rock music we'll definitely get along! As a freelancer, it is so important to me that I remain authentic for my clients, while creating looks which allow my clients to feel confident and beautiful.

The Training
I have a unique background and skillset as a Bridal Specialist, with training from the prestigious Iver Makeup Academy where I attended in 2016, I studied under a number of top makeup artists in the industry for 8 months.
My training is where I acquired all the skills and techniques to become a professional makeup and hair artist, who could expertly apply makeup on a variety of faces for HD cameras. This skillset has given me a unique advantage as a Bridal Specialist where I create looks that can be captured in photos and videos beautifully.
With more than 5 years experience in the bridal industry, I have gained a wealth of knowledge to create not only my signature glowing makeup, but more dramatic and alternative styles.
