I am an East Coast Makeup-Artist and Hair Stylist of 2 years located in the heart of Richmond, Virginia. I specialize in Film, Fashion, Commercial, Bridal, Events, Editorial, and Conceptual Art. I believe my clients should have the best quality and have been trained by over 25 different brands. I am currently the studio manager of the photography side of Track Meet RVA located in the Manchester Di
strict, which is also my home studio. I am a published Model, Makeup- Artist, and Photographer and also do minimal hair styling, fashion design, photo retouching, and event coordination. My goal is to provide each client with five star service and leaving with a luxurious feeling whether it's a photo shoot or your wedding day. I believe that hard work and a good heart will take you places. My biggest accomplishments for 2013 is working with Vimby Production, Co. on a Walmart Campaign for both Richmond and Hampton Roads area (38 Commercials) as well as being published over 20 times in magazines in Virginia, New York, and also California.
