Celebrity and Television Makeup Artist Gold Coast and Brisbane
Celebrity Makeup
Working with talent is as much about the room as the makeup. People are often tired, under pressure or about to walk on stage, and the job is to be calm, quick and discreet while still delivering a face that holds up under studio lighting, high definition cameras and live events.
I work with television personalities, musicians, actors and media professionals across the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Byron Bay and the surrounding areas, on television appearances, award nights, media interviews, promotional events, red carpets and photoshoots.
CELEBRITY MAKEUP
Television and Broadcast Makeup
Broadcast lighting is merciless and high definition shows everything. Makeup has to kill shine without going flat, stay put under hot lights, and look natural on camera rather than heavy in the room. I work to the run sheet, handle touch ups between takes and stay out of the way the rest of the time.
Red Carpet, Awards and Event Makeup
Award nights, launches, media days and red carpets, where the schedule is tight and the photographs are permanent. I can come to the hotel, the green room or backstage.

What happens in the chair stays there. I do not post talent without permission, and I am happy to work under a non disclosure agreement where the production requires it.

Where I travel to
I am based at Jacobs Well, which sits between the Gold Coast and Brisbane and puts most of South East Queensland comfortably within reach.
I regularly work across the Gold Coast, from Coomera and Hope Island through Southport, Main Beach, Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach, and north through Brisbane, Redland Bay and Cleveland. I also travel to Mount Tamborine, the Scenic Rim and into Northern New South Wales.
Travel starts at $10 for bookings under 15km and is charged by distance from there. If you are further afield, ask me and I will let you know.
