“To say I found my go-to makeup artist is an understatement! I booked Gabriella twice this year! Both of my makeup looks were amazing and exactly how I wanted. As someone who never wears makeup, Gabriella made sure I felt and looked my best! You will never be unhappy with her work and should book her ASAP! I'm going to book her for all my events this year and next!”

"Having Gabriella as my makeup artist for my wedding day was such an amazing experience. She made me feel extremely calm and comfortable and listened to exactly what I wanted and took feedback incredibly well. The look she created was exactly what I asked for: a natural look to enhance and accentuate my features. She was beyond professional and was genuinely excited for me on my big day! Thank you so much Gabriella!"

MEGAN

"I had my makeup done by Gabby and it was absolutely perfect! I showed her just a couple of photos for inspiration and she was able to capture exactly what I was looking for. She was so friendly and easy to talk to as well, I loved my experience and would recommend her to anyone looking for excellent makeup services!" 

EMILY

“Working with Gabriella was such a lovely experience. Not only was the makeup beautiful, but also she was a careful listener and knew what my sensitive skin needed. She even went the extra mile to provide product recommendations and pamper my skin with clean products. Gabriella’s work is beautiful and thoughtful. I’m thankful I met her and I hope to work with her again.”

"Gabriella is such a talented makeup artist! After my makeup artist canceled on me, the photographer introduced me to Gabby. I AM SO GLAD SHE DID! As soon as you meet her, she makes you feel comfortable. I told her what I was looking for, a simple look...GABBY KILLED IT!! I honestly felt as if I didn't have makeup on. 11/10 RECOMMENDATION! You will not regret it!"

“Gabriella was such a pleasure to work with! She embraced my vision and executed it perfectly. Her personality is so warm and welcoming that she instantly makes you feel comfortable in the makeup chair. She is also super hygienic and organized. I can't wait to hire her again the next time I want to look and feel amazing!”
