Sharing the Joy....

Many people ask me if I like being a makeup/hair artist. Normally I answer back with a quick "yes", but truthfully that doesn't really cover the half of it. I don't "like" my job, I LOVE IT! Why?...well if you were in my shoes you would know exactly what I meant.
Even though I'm a makeup/hair artist, I wear a variety of other hats in my life as a mother, daughter, sister, wife, artist, teacher, beauty expert and a business woman. All of these elements add a lot of flavor to the mix, so I just thought to myself "you've logged a lot of hours on this interesting journey of yours, so you might as well share the ride". So I am! That will be the only way for you to understand what I love about my profession and why I love living in the moment....

Featured Wedding Day~ Chris & Christy


When I first met Christy it was at a bridal faire, she was one of the first brides who ran to my booth the minute the doors opened. She said to me "I had to book you first". The spirit of this beautiful girl was so warming and contagious. I felt it a true honor to be apart of her special day! When I had the pleasure to meet her mom, I knew instantly where Christy got her liveliness from, they are two peas in a pod! Her wedding day session was captured so intimately as Christy and her mom have had to endure what most of us will hopefully never have to experience. Her mom is a breast cancer survivor but none the less it made this family realize even more how precious life is. Christy spared no moment that she did not have her mom and her family by her side on her wedding day. I love how she had her Mom & her Dad give her away (when you have only one daughter this is how it should be)! The love that this family expresses is as genuine as is can be! Thank you for allowing me to share this moment with each of you.

  1. Carrie, you are so kind. You are a beautiful vivacious spirit and I thank you for helping my daughter and our family have a most wondrous special day. When Christy said something about having her makeup done, my opinion was that she was so beautiful that she didn't need much make up if any. You proved me wrong, your makeup and hair gave Christy so much confidence and less worries on such an important day You were a great treasure to her day. She glowed. Our family is so glad that our paths met. Thanks so much.
