June 26, 2026Wedding Day Glam + More than a Makeup Artist
I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist for my wedding day. Kinley made me feel absolutely beautiful while still making me look like me. She listened to exactly what I wanted and created a timeless, elegant look that lasted all day and night through happy tears, hugs, and hours of celebrating. Not only is she incredibly talented, but I loved having her there. Kinley has such a bubbly and light hearted personality, so she makes any room she walks into even more special. I can’t recommend her enough and I’m so grateful she was a part of such an important day.

What to expect
Clients can expect clear communication, punctuality, and a calm, professional experience from start to finish. For makeup services, I will consult with you beforehand to understand your desired look, skin needs, and event style. For dance services, I focus on building confidence while creating choreography tailored to your event, music choice, and skill level. I aim to make every session comfortable, fun, and fully customized to your vision.
About
I am a professional makeup artist with 9 years of experience specializing in both wedding/bridal glamour and creative SFX makeup for film, live events, and themed productions. I have completed makeup for 4 weddings, with additional bridal bookings currently in progress. I also have hands-on experience working in SFX makeup for live performances and several short films.
My work is focused on enhancing natural beauty for weddings and events while also bringing bold, creative concepts to life for editorial, film, and special effects projects. I prioritize detail, skin safety, and a personalized approach to ensure each client’s vision is fully realized.
Along side my makeup artistry
I am a dance instructor and choreographer with 9 years of experience teaching, training, and creating routines for individuals, teams, and events. I specialize in developing choreography that is tailored to each client’s skill level, style, and performance goals.
I have worked with dancers of various ages and experience levels, focusing on building confidence, technique, and stage presence. Whether it’s a solo performance, group routine, wedding dance, or stage production, I create choreography that is engaging, polished, and memorable while making the learning process supportive and enjoyable.
