Jodie really understood the look I was going for and was able to give great advice on the makeup that would suit this and my skin. She was fantastic at keeping me calm on the morning of the wedding and I was so glad to have her there!
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say thank you so much – it was so wonderful to meet you and you did such a wonderful job getting us all looking our best for mine and Dom’s big day.So many of people commented on how amazing our hair and makeup looked – both about the bridesmaids and me – so thank you again!I cannot thank you enough. You & Nikki were absolute angels on the wedding day. Honestly- you kept us all so calm. I have no idea how you worked such magic in that heat! I put complete trust in you with my makeup and I loved every bit of it. Olivia, August 2018
Jodie was an incredibly professional, friendly and knowledgeable person who demonstrated a real passion for her work. I was initially impressed by the quality of her website which showcased her work and ethos beautifully. Upon our first meeting I was immediately at ease and knew that Jodie was really listening to me. The final outcome was gorgeous – me at my best, which was exactly what I wanted!
