KATIE A, Hampshire
I trained as a Hair and Makeup Artist 10 years ago at Brushstroke Academy, Shepperton Film Studios. Throughout my career I have been lucky enough to gain a huge amount of experience in many areas of the industry, including Beauty, Television, Film, Music, and of course, Weddings.
It is such a joy working in the Wedding industry. I love the excitement and confidence that beautiful hair and makeup can bring and I love to help create a relaxing and happy atmosphere while a Bride and her loved ones get ready. Being a part of a Bride’s special day is such an honour- I truly love my job!
My speciality is gorgeous, radiant, glowy and fresh skin. I have an eye for detail and love to enhance my Bride’s natural features, creating sophisticated yet effortless looks . You will always look like yourself on your wedding day - just elevated!
Using my knowledge and experience from photoshoots of how makeup is captured on camera, I ensure makeup always photographs beautifully and will last throughout the big day and into the evening.
When it comes to hair, I would describe my style as modern-boho, whether that is a effortless up-do or beautiful romantic waves.
I keep my kit cruelty free, and love to use a wide variety of brands as nothing is ever one-size-fits-all! My current favourite brands are Charlotte Tilbury, Rare Beauty, Hourglass & Lisa Eldridge.
