flora & shahan
06 september 2025 / domaine de la gallinière, aix-en-provence, france
A destination wedding in the heart of Provence — warm, joyful, and deeply personal. Flora and Shahan travelled from Australia to celebrate surrounded by the people they love most. Their day was filled with laughter, happy tears, and the kind of beauty that feels entirely unplanned.
“I couldn’t have wished for a better makeup artist for my wedding.”
“Mathilde is so lovely, very knowledgeable and professional. She brought such calm, positive energy to our getting-ready and made everyone feel completely at ease. We’re so grateful for her work and would highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist who is both talented and wonderful to have around!
During our trial, Mathilde started by explaining her process, asking for my preferences, and analysing my skin type to inform the techniques she would use. She was wonderful and very personable. She took the lead with clear expertise, while also asking for my input and adapting to ensure my preferences were included. The entire process felt very easy, tailored and personalised. The final make-up looked bright, refined, elegant, effortless, just perfect - Mathilde is extremely talented!
On the day, she did my bridal makeup as well as my bridesmaids’, mother’s, and mother-in-law’s. Mathilde speaks fluent English, which was KEY to ensure everyone felt comfortable and that preferences were understood. She was efficient, super on schedule, and everyone absolutely loved the results, saying they felt like themselves and fabulous. Our make-ups lasted beautifully for the entire day + night, despite the heat and all the tears of happy emotions!”
