“Professional, kind and supportive.”

“I met Ann Marie to test a makeup look for a shoot and she couldn’t have been more professional, kind and supportive. And the look we tried turned out beautifully. She’s a great communicator and an equally good listener who takes the time to get to know you and your needs.”

— Abigail Glaum-Lathbury


“Exactly what I wanted.”

“Ann was amazing! She did my hair and makeup for a family photoshoot and it was exactly what I wanted. She came to my home and arrived on time and was so fun to chat with. It took her just over an hour to complete my transformation and I was so pleased! Loved my eyelashes!”

— Kaylan O’Hara


Wedding & Bridal Beauty Reviews

“Calm, easygoing, and very professional.”

Ann Marie did hair and makeup for a wedding morning, including the bride, bridesmaids, and flower girls. The client shared that the final look lasted beautifully from the start of the day through the end of the night, without feeling overdone.

This is exactly the goal of luxury bridal beauty: polished, timeless, and calm under pressure.

“Professional, prompt, friendly, and conversational.”

Past bridal clients consistently mention feeling heard, adjusted, and cared for throughout the process.

The best wedding morning beauty experience should feel organized, warm, and steady — not chaotic.

Photoshoot & Makeover Reviews

“When I saw myself at the end, I couldn’t believe it was me.”

One photoshoot client described feeling nervous before her session, then fully supported through the look, hair, makeup, lashes, and final transformation. Her makeup lasted beautifully through the shoot, and the experience became a true confidence boost.

That is the heart of the Signature Makeover Experience.

“Fresh and not overdone.”

Photoshoot clients often mention that their makeup photographed beautifully while still feeling like themselves.

That balance is the difference between ordinary glam and refined camera-ready beauty.
