I am a HUGE makeup girl. I'm obsessed with beauty YouTube and always pay attention to what's current. All this to say, I was extremely picky when choosing my wedding makeup artist. I got so many personal references for people but would look through their portfolio and everything felt so dated, so blah, like a one-face-fits-all bridal look. I felt stuck.

Then, through a reference from a reference from a reference, I stumbled upon Lindsay's Instagram. Not only was her work modern and fresh, but her passion really shone through (is "shone" the past tense of "shine"?! I have no idea) - she not only posted bridal looks, but boudoir shoots and Halloween looks. It was clear she cared about makeup, and that she was a real person. I booked her as soon as I could!

Lindsay ended up doing my makeup for my bridal shower too, and y'all, she is just great. I did some pretty bold looks for both my shower and wedding (shower was a Gwen Stefani vibe, and wedding I was channeling 90s grunge supermodel), and she killed both with ease.

Just realized I haven't mentioned hair so let me just say - my shower Pam Anderson updo was INCREDIBLE and I got so many compliments. And my wedding hair was actually next level. I wanted a sleek low bun, but with a pop somehow. Lindsay thought to tie a red velvet ribbon through my bun to match my red necklace and red reception outfit. It looked amazing and I was just blown away by the creativity of that idea. The picture here is of that updo, but also of my mom's beautiful makeup look. Okay, sorry this review is so long but the coffee just hit and I had to capitalize. Book Lindsay, she's amazing! The end.

Lindsay went above and beyond my expectations for my makeup and hair for my wedding day! I’m so thankful to have found her. My hair kept hold all night and my make up looked amazing the whole entire day! I definitely recommend Lindsay she is super sweet and knows what she is doing for sure!

Lindsay is an absolute gem!! I fell in love with her the first time I met her. I’m no glam gal and she made me so feel relaxed during the process. She is down to earth, efficient and does stunning work. I was so happy to have her for the morning while we got ready. Words cannot express how beautiful we all looked and how perfect she was to work with. I made changes on the fly and she didn’t even blink an eye, she gave me exactly what I wanted.
