Bridal makeup

artistry

Provence based, sought from around the world.

Nearly one hundred brides in three years, from the UK and the US to Australia, Korea, Japan and beyond.

A small number of weddings each year, chosen with care.

the work

Bridal makeup, bridal party and destination weddings across Provence and well beyond.
Every service rests on the same idea. I don't put makeup on a face, I create a result. One that photographs beautifully, holds from the first photo to the last dance, and looks unmistakably like you at your very best.
My work has been trusted at châteaux across the region, from Château d'Estoublon to Château de la Tour Vaucros, and featured by French Wedding Style.

who i am

I studied psychology. I worked in beauty PR.
Then I trained as a makeup artist in Paris.
That path isn't scattered, it's the whole reason I can read a bride within the first ten minutes, picture the full visual story of her day, and build a look that truly belongs to her rather than to a trend.
I'm based in Provence, and I travel for the weddings that deserve it.
In three years I have done the makeup for nearly one hundred brides, who came to me from more than ten countries.

the full story 
Brides from Australia, Finland, Canada and beyond, on the morning they remember.

  • I'm scared of looking overdone, like a painted doll.

    "I was afraid of the heavy painted look, and it was the complete opposite, soft and entirely like myself." — Charlotte

  • Will it really last all day, through the heat, the tears and the dancing?

    "My makeup held until 6 in the morning." — Sarah

  • The morning is going to be so stressful.

    "A soft, calm energy that melted away all the wedding-morning stress." — Camille

  • My bridesmaids, my mother, my mother-in-law: everyone's skin is different.

    "She did all of us, bridesmaids, my mother and my mother-in-law included, with a personalised skin analysis for each one." — Flora

  • Can I trust her before we've even met in person?

    "I live in the UK, so I couldn't do a trial beforehand. My makeup came out better than I could have imagined, soft and natural, and the whole morning felt relaxed." — Cara

  • I don't speak French well. Will we understand each other?

    "So easy with my broken French and her lovely English, and the morning stayed calm the whole time." — Laura

Let's have a short call. We'll talk about your day, the look you're imagining, and whether we are the right fit for each other.

I take on a limited number of weddings each year, so every bride has my full attention, from the first call to the last dance. The Saturdays from June through September are the first to go, so the earlier we talk, the better.
