Originally based in Durham Region and the GTA, I relocated to the beautiful Muskoka Lakes in 2023.

With over 12 years of experience in makeup artistry, cosmetics, and esthetics, I've had the pleasure of working with prestigious brands such as Christian Dior, CP24 News, and The Marilyn Denis Show. My work has also been featured in various magazines.

After an exciting career in television and high-end cosmetics, I now specialize in makeup artistry for special events and weddings. My signature look focuses on enhancing my clients' natural features, ensuring they feel their absolute best.

I bring light-heartedness, kindness, and attentive listening to every session. There's a sense of calm when you receive services from me—perhaps because I know that whoever sits in my chair will leave feeling beautiful.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me. I look forward to helping you feel radiant and confident for your next special event in Muskoka.

Use Lighter Formulas: Try a medium coverage foundation, and apply it minimally, as they work best for mature skin. Use buildable coverage, hydrating concealers to cover any imperfections. A translucent or matte powder can help control shine, which might otherwise emphasize fine lines.

Focus on Eyes and Brows: Enhance your eyes with soft, neutral eyeshadows and define your brows with a pencil or powder for a youthful look. Using dark brow shadow lines can also help to enhance the lash line, making your eyes pop.

Add a Pop of Color: Brighten your complexion with a natural blush and a touch of lighter powder as a highlight for a subtle glow. Avoid using products with too much shine or sparkle, as they can emphasize skin texture.

Lips: Keep your lips hydrated with a moisturizing lip balm or lipstick in soft, flattering shades that complement mature skin tones.

Find Your Pose: Look for some inspiration online of models holding flowers, to find poses that resonate with you.

Share these inspiration photos with your photographer well in advance, allowing them to plan and capture the perfect pictures on the day of your event.

Relax Your Grip: When holding your bouquet, avoid gripping it too tightly. Instead, gently hold the flowers with relaxed hands and natural-looking fingers for a more graceful and effortless appearance.

Bring a Towel: To keep your flowers fresh, they are often stored in a vase until they are needed for photos.

However, excess water from the stems can sometimes transfer onto your clothes, potentially causing unwanted marks. Be prepared by bringing a small towel to wipe the stems before holding them; this ensures a dry presentation throughout your photoshoot.

Use these tips to hold your flowers with confidence and grace, capturing timeless memories that beautifully complement your special event.

Waterproof Products: As your makeup artist, I recommend using waterproof products such as mascara, eyeliner, and foundation to ensure long-lasting wear. If you tend to have oily skin or anticipate sweating, consider adding airbrush foundation to your makeup routine. Airbrush foundation provides a filtered look and holds up well in humidity.

Focus on Eyes: Enhance your eyes with neutral eyeshadows and waterproof mascara to make them stand out in outdoor photos. Neutral tones complement the natural beauty of Muskoka's landscapes while waterproof mascara ensures your lashes stay defined throughout the day.

Touch-ups Throughout the Day: To maintain your makeup look, I provide touch-up kits to all my clients. These kits include a touch-up powder to combat shine and keep your skin looking fresh throughout the day.

Conclusion: Incorporate these makeup tips to enhance your natural beauty and ensure stunning outdoor photos in Muskoka. Embrace the breathtaking landscapes of the region and capture timeless memories with confidence.
