Adrienne has been my go-to makeup artist as I was professionally modeling the last 7 years- so she was my OBVIOUS choice when it came to my wedding day!!! Not only is she talented in her work (with an amazing kit and the knowledge on how to use it to high standards) but she’s always a positive and calming energy on set and with parties. No matter the look- natural/dewy, editorial, bridal, no makeup makeup- she has never let me down!! I also have very dry and acne prone skin, and I never have any skin issues after our work together. She also does my curls justice EVERY👏TIME👏. I trust her with my life- gem of an artist and gem of a human.
Adrienne was an absolute dream to work with and flawlessly executed my timeless glam wedding makeup. From the very beginning, the experience was exceptional!! My trial was wonderful, and I loved that she came to my home, making the entire process feel relaxed, personal, and effortless. She listened so carefully to my vision and truly understood the look I was hoping for. On the wedding day, the morning vibes were absolutely perfect. Adrienne brought such a calm, positive energy that made getting ready feel fun, peaceful, and special. My makeup was classic, elevated, and beautiful without ever feeling heavy or overdone. It photographed perfectly, lasted all day and night, and still felt like me, which was exactly what I wanted. Adrienne’s talent, professionalism, and warm presence made the entire experience seamless from start to finish. I felt confident, radiant, and my very best walking down the aisle. If you’re looking for a makeup artist who delivers flawless, timeless results and an incredible experience, I cannot recommend Adrienne highly enough.
Working with Adrienne was truly one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day! I was lucky enough to have Adrienne do my hair and makeup, and I can say without a doubt that I have never felt more beautiful. Not only is Adrienne incredibly talented, she also brings such a calm, warm, and comforting presence to the day and just made the whole process feel so stress-free and relaxing - which is exactly what I needed that day! She also did hair and makeup for two of my dear friends, both of whom have different styles / tastes, and she was able to give them exactly what they were looking for. From pre-wedding to day-of, Adrienne was so responsive, prompt, and thoughtful about her work and really took the time to talk through everything in such a considerate and kind way. Not to mention that my hair and makeup lasted through the entire day, evening, and night - even with all of the crying, laughing, eating, and drinking! I felt confident and beautiful the whole day, largely because of Adrienne. She was an absolute dream to work with in every way!!!!!!
Adrienne is truly so talented at what she does!! She made me feel so comfortable the day of my wedding and I was so grateful to have her as part of my day. As an asian bride, having someone that would understand my skin tone and coloring was so important to me and I absolutely loved my makeup on my wedding day. I would highly recommend Adrienne!!!
Adrienne is not only fantastic at her job, but also is the most affirming makeup artist I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with many makeup artists over the years in modeling and in theatre/film and the whole experience from trial to wedding day was in my top 5 experiences. She listens to your needs, and wants and helps create the vision you want. I know she absolutely slays a traditional look, but I felt so affirmed and beautiful when she helped me play with an alternative bridal style. Not to mention the space buns were a hit and the most comfortable hairstyle I could’ve asked for. Not to mention my makeup and hair lasted till the next day! My mother also hasn’t really worn makeup in 10 years and Adrienne listened and made her feel absolutely incredible. 10/10! The experience not only felt amazing but I felt like I made a friend in the process and I hope I get to see her again, or work with her again.

Timeless beauty for life's most radiant moments, crafted with artistry and care.
