    Amazing team!

    We had an amazing experience with Faces by Emily on our wedding day! A talented artist from their team came in the morning and did the makeup for my mom, sister, and sister-in-law. The results were absolutely stunning, and everyone looked beautiful.

    The artist was professional, friendly, and incredibly skilled, making everyone feel comfortable and confident. The makeup lasted all day and night, and we received so many compliments on how great everyone looked.

    I highly recommend Faces by Emily for any special occasion. Their team’s expertise and dedication to making us look our best made our day even more special. Thank you for helping to make our wedding day perfect!

    Thank you Emily!

    Finding a makeup artist was one of the to-do’s I struggled with the most. Everything about it is subjective, every face is unique and no amount of looking at portfolios would tell me how an artist would make ME look. What one artist could do for another person would be totally different for me so I was very cautious. I knew I wanted a fresh, natural but emphasized look. I wanted my nicest features enhanced and essentially still look like myself but on a very good day.

    I feel very fortunate to have found Emily. After thoroughly browsing her portfolio, I saw some brides who share similar features with me so I felt encouraged to inquire. All of the communication was done by email but I never felt that it was lacking as Michelle, her studio manager, replies so so fast and was transparent with all information. I booked a trial a week before my wedding at Emily’s studio. She is so sweet and very talented! I showed her some photos of what I wanted and she was great about interpreting my preferences. She gave me a ton of input on what worked/didn’t work and how to achieve the look I wanted. We tried a few options on my eyes and hair styles and thanks to the trial were able to hone in on a look. I felt very at ease. I wore the look all day for my engagement photos and it aged very well.

    On the day of, Emily and Amy arrived early and got right to work. Amy worked on my bridesmaids and gave them a fresh, natural look and fun curls. They all looked lovely - Amy was able to pull it off with no problem. Emily worked on my mom and I. She made the corrections and made me look beautiful, glowy and fresh. Even my bridal updo was stunning and completed that soft, feminine look I was going for. The makeup also aged very well and survived despite wind, drizzle, dancing, food and lots of happy tears.

    Really happy I booked Emily and I highly recommend her. She is so worth the investment and it’s a small price to pay for feeling (and looking like) like a million bucks on my wedding day!

    We looked stunning thanks to Emily and her team

    Emily did my hair and makeup for my engagement shoot and wedding day. I couldn't have asked for a better hair and makeup team. Including myself, we were a party of 8 ladies (bridesmaids and one mama). Emily and her team made me and my girls look so glamorous. They arrived on time. They were very professional and finished on time. I couldn't recommend her enough.

    Fairytale Princess

    Emily & her team are amazing and super talented in what they do. I only interviewed one make up artist and the moment I met Emily, I was SOLD! She is so easy to work with and is super personable. Not only she made me look beautiful, but made me feel beautiful. The day of the wedding, she did such an amazing job on my make up and hair, it lasted all night long and I was glowing. I truly felt like I was a princess :) Her team did my bridesmaid make up and also my parents, and they were SO impressed and after they can't stop talking about how amazing and talented they are. Everyone was so satisfied and appreciative of their work. Emily and her team are exceptional. You will be in good hands, guaranteed! I would pick them all over again with no doubts!

    Great natural look on my wedding day!

    I was looking for a make-up and hair artist for my wedding and a friend recommended Emily. Not knowing much about her work, I contacted her for a trial. When I met her, she listened carefully and considered what I liked and didn't like about various styles. I wanted a natural look for both the wedding ceremony and the photos and she accomplished just that! I am not sure how she did it but all my guests commented on how good my make up looked on my special day. Thanks so much Emily!

    Excellent makeup and hair artist!

    I enlisted Emily and some of her team to help me and my bridesmaids with our makeup and hair for my wedding this past October. She and the other makeup artists did such an amazing job! Everyone was so professional and arrived promptly as scheduled. They worked super efficiently and we were actually able to finish ahead of schedule (which is amazing for a wedding!). Emily also does a terrific job of making you feel at ease, which helps to relieve some of the stress of the big day. I'm so thankful for her and her team and the incredible work they did!

    I would definitely recommend Emily for all your makeup and hair needs!

    Emily will make you look PHENOMENAL!!

    Emily and her team were AMAZING artists. There were a lot of things I was nervous about on my big day, but my make-up was DEFINITELY NOT one of them because I know I was in the hands of the BEST. I remembered going for a trial with Emily and had absolutely no idea what kind of look I wanted, but Emily was able to design a look for me that blew my mind and it was PERFECT. She is definitely an amazing artist and her team was also able to provide beautiful looks for my bridesmaids and family. I LOVED working with Emily and her team because they were not only there to provide amazing services but they are also very fun girls to talk and work with. She is one of the BEST make-up artists, so BOOK early if you are considering Emily and her team! =)

    Emily and her team were AMAZING. Emily made me look stunning, and her team was fantastic with my bridesmaids/moms. Definitely worth the cost, and also a lot of fun to work with. I have never felt more beautiful! The look also stayed put all day/night. Loved her!!

    I felt like an elegant queen. Emily was so caring and loving towards my hair and make up. She was confident and knew exactly what she needed to do. We were behind on schedule and she still produced astonishing work. My family, guests, and of course my husband, loved my hair and make up. I cannot thank her enough for how accommodating Emily and her team was for our family. Thank you for everything Emily!

    You can trust her services and her creativity. She is genuine and has a wonderful spirit!

    Emily is like a make up/hair guru. If you want to feel confident on your wedding day, you can't go wrong with Emily. I had no idea what I wanted to look like, and she nailed my wedding look. It doesnt also hurt that her sessions were so comfortable and laid back because she's so easy to talk to. She's awesome. You'll love her as much as I did.

    Emily and her assistants were fantastic. They did my makeup as well as my 5 bridesmaids, and 3 very last minute additions. They were very accommodating, getting special makeup colors I wanted for the big day and arrived on time, ready to work. I would recommend Emily to anyone that is searching for a professional and talented makeup artist. I look forward to working with Emily again in the future.

    Emily was the most talented artist I've met. Having her do makeup at my wedding was one of the first (and best!) decisions I made while wedding planning. Makeup was one thing I knew I didn’t have to worry about on the day of the wedding, and it came out wonderfully. She made me feel at ease while the result exceeded my expectation. Emily is a true professional, and has a passion for her work. If you’re thinking about hiring her, go for it – but book early because she is in demand! Highly recommended.

    EMILY HAS DONE AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING-STUNNING JOB !!

    I was astonished by her expertise and how she passionately expressed her arts/creativities through these brushes and cosmetic tools. She took time and made sure that makeup/hair/eyebrow were perfect for camera !! Emily is very friendly and charming. After only 5-10 mins sitting with her, I was already feel comfortable enough to tell her about my life and experiences !!!!!!

    I've finally found the Artist who truly-genuinely cares about creating the dreamy look I desired.

    I didn't even want to take the makeup off after the Pageant Photoshoot. I really enjoyed working with Emily and hope to do so again one day soon !!!

    Thank you Emily for being a part of helping us-woman looking wonderful and gorgeous !!

    Emily did my hair and make for my wedding 2 weekends ago. I saw Emily's work and knew I had to book her. I booked her more than 1 year in advance. She was the second vendor I booked, after my venue! I've got to say I have never once regret booking Emily. Her price was very reasonable given the quality of her work! She was very responsive to emails and texts. She is very nice and super easy to work with. The day of the wedding, she showed up to the hotel on time to do my make up and hair. It took about 2.5 hrs for hair and make up but it did not feel long at all. Emily was super easy and entertaining to talk to. She was very attentive. I told her I am not used to wearing fake eyelashes and she took the time to apply the ones that are comfortable. I was able to wear it the whole night! I had multiple compliments about my hair and especially make up . I am referring Emily to everyone I know that is getting married! Book her and her magic will make you look your best on your wedding day!

    I would like to first say Thank you to Emily for making me feel like the most beautiful bride ever. Everything came out gorgeous and better than I could have ever imagined. Every photo I took came out so pretty. She will not disappoint you! Every penny you spend is totally worth it. She knows how to bring out your inner beauty and trust me, no Make up can beautify you as much as her personality. She makes you feel important and she will truly makes you feel like your on top of the world. It may sound like I'm over-exaggerating but how often do you hear from other brides about how b***** their MUA gets when you tell them you want to change something or when you give your opinion and the mua takes it the wrong way. Yes, we as Brides pay our MUA to make us pretty but most importantly they should make you feel happy. This is a once in a lifetime event and you don't need more stress added to your list, you need a friend to make sure your perfect in every way to walk down the aisle. Overall, I highly recommend Emily to anyone and everyone. Nothing beats personality! The superb work of art she does is truly the cherry on top.

    This is my very first review on WeddingWire.com and I gotta say that Emily's work was VERY SATISFYING!
    I would not have wasted my time writing this review if her service was not that great. Our wedding was almost about a month ago, and finally have the time to comment on her work. Gotta say that my wife and I were VERY PLEASED & SATISFIED that we have chosen Emily. Two thumbs up for her. Enough said...you will not regret it if you choose her as your makeup artist for your Wedding. Lastly, she will not definitely disappoint you!!!

    Emily is truly an amazing artist. She is everything you want in 1 package (Hair + Hair extensions + Makeup). She was highly recommended to me by my cousin (Rachel Tran) and especially from my photographers (102 Photography).
    If you are seeking a complete transformation--- Emily is your gal!.... She will give you a glowing look that will LAST ALL DAY and will look SUPER NATURAL in photos.

    Thanks a bunch Emily for making my wedding day perfect! xoxoxox

    Emily was the makeup artist/hair stylist for the Lucky Supermarket 2013/2014 Chinese Lunar New Year Parade float girls. She is punctual, professional, and down to earth.

    Her talents brought out the beauty in all six girls as she prepared us for a night of cold and moderately windy weather. Even though we were freezing in traditional chinese qipaos, we couldn't have looked more amazing while shivering! Our makeup lasted through hours in crowds of swarming photographers, stadium bright lights, endless smiles, and boys drooling!

    In addition, she has also done amazing makeup for my boudoir shoots and personal projects.

    I highly recommend Emily will look forward to working with her again.

    Where do I even begin...

    Emily is such an amazing make up artist and she is the sweetest person too. When I first met Emily during our consultation meeting, she was really nice and down to earth. I did a little research on her work prior to reaching out and after meeting her for the first time, I knew she was the one I want to hire to do my hair and make up for my wedding.

    I wanted someone not only who has talent, but someone I was able to work with, someone who also listens to my opinions and ideas, and someone who simply I can click with during the makeup session.

    I met with her again when she did her trial hair and makeup for my engagement shoot. I think the whole session took about 2 hours but it felt like half hour. The whole time we were chatting away and laughing over the craziest stories. Keep in mind, this was at like 6 in the morning and she was still full on energy.

    She did an amazing job on my hair and makeup for both engagement and wedding sessions. I love how she was able to add hair extensions to make me hair look fuller and longer. All the guests at the wedding kept complimenting on my makeup and how natural it looked.

    During the morning of the wedding, I had 4 bridesmaids and two moms for make overs. She had a team of one additional makeup artist and one for hair. They were able to finish the whole process within 3 hours.

    For additional photos, here is the link to my photographers blog. Thank you Emily!

    Emily will make you look and feel absolutely stunning

    Emily came highly recommended by one of my best friends, who said to me, “Emily will make you feel so beautiful on your wedding day.” I booked her for my large party of 8 bridesmaids, 2 mothers, a flower girl and myself.

    I scheduled my trial for the same day as my engagement shoot, and first met Emily when I went to her studio for my trial. She offered me wine and I had SO much fun - we talked about anything and everything, it was like chatting with an old friend. I was sad when it was over because I didn’t want to leave. By the end of it, I couldn’t believe I was looking at myself in the mirror. Emily is seriously a miracle worker, it was hands down the best I’d ever seen myself look. Despite a six hour gap between seeing Emily and doing my engagement shoot, my hair and makeup stayed flawless and I couldn’t be happier with how the photos turned out.

    On my wedding day, Emily and her team arrived right on time and quickly went to work. My bridesmaids were all so beautiful and I appreciated how Emily’s team really listened to each girl to give them what they wanted. Both my mom and mother-in-law can be difficult and picky, and I’m so thankful Emily was so patient and understanding, and worked hard to make sure both mothers were satisfied with their looks.

    I would highly recommend Emily to any bride, and can’t wait to book her again for future events!
