The Makeup Services I offer
Wedding and Bridal Makeup and Hair
Your wedding day deserves an artist who has done hundreds of them. I create a look that photographs beautifully, lasts from your first look to the last dance, and still looks like you. Trials are available, and for larger bridal parties my team member joins me so everyone is ready on time.
Celebrity and Television Makeup
I've worked with talent including Missy Higgins, Erin Brockovich and Kyle Sandilands, on shoots and events from the MTV Music Video Awards to Discovery Channel's Wild But True. Discreet, calm and fast, on set or backstage.
School Formal Makeup and Hair
Formal night is a big deal, and the photos last forever. I come to you, work with what you're comfortable with, and make sure your makeup holds up through dinner, dancing and a warm Queensland night. Group bookings with friends work out cheaper per person.
Personal Branding and Headshot Makeup
Headshots, LinkedIn photos and personal branding shoots. Polished, natural and unmistakably you, so the photos still look right in two years.
Special Occasion and Event Makeup
Birthdays, engagement parties, bridal showers, race days, graduations and corporate functions. Whatever you're getting ready for, I bring the salon to you and have you out the door on time, feeling like the best version of yourself.
Editorial Makeup
Magazine, fashion and creative work, including published editorials in Malvie Magazine. I know how makeup behaves under studio lighting and on camera, and I work fast on set without losing the detail a shoot needs.
Commercial and eCommerce Makeup
Brand campaigns, eCommerce shoots, lifestyle work and television. I've worked with Channel 10, SBS, Discovery Channel and brands including Thirsty Swimwear, Abi & Joseph and EOS Footwear. Half-day and full-day rates, with talent numbers and assistants quoted per project.
Beauty Makeup
Flawless, close-up ready skin for portfolios, model tests and beauty photography. This is the work where the camera sees everything, and it's where 25 years of experience shows.

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.
