Beautiful Inside and Out

Kelli and her team were amazing to work with and helped us navigate some unique circumstances in feeling completely bridal-ready. Her patience, empathy and openness made her the perfect fit for us. Additionally, her artistry, fantastic eye for color, and knack for subtlety made us feel like perfectly enhanced versions of ourselves - but still very much ourselves, which was so important to us. We love that she uses natural products, and our skin felt so glowy even after the big day! I highly recommend doing a trial with Kelli and her team - it made for a much easier day-of and we went in feeling confident that we would look like goddesses. We opted to use her studio space in downtown Portland for getting ready, which comfortably accommodated our moms and bridal party for the morning. Thanks for your amazing work and emotional support, Kelli! We are so grateful xx

Hire Kelli to look like the best version of yourself!

I chose to hire Kelli to do my bridal look because I really trusted her to help me look like the best, hottest version of myself - and did she deliver! Kelli’s focus on natural skincare and clean make up was one of the main reasons I chose to go with her team. The products truly feel like part of your skin, which made me feel so comfortable and confident. I really appreciate her attention to detail and ability to adjust anything if there was a detail that wasn’t right. Cate, her hair stylist partner in crime, is also amazing and is the best hype girl! Plus my hair stayed all day, with no uncomfortable poking or pulling. They are such a fun crew and are so talented to achieve any look that you’re envisioning while also highlighting your own natural beauty. Highly recommend!!

Professional, FUN people to work with!

I have had to reschedule my wedding, so I have only had my bridal trial yet with Kelli and Emily, but they were both so fun to work with and truly made me feel like a bride already! Kelli has been super accommodating during the new date selection process. I feel so lucky that I will get to have Kelli and Emily by my side for the newly scheduled big day!
