A true Professional!

Where to start!..Sophie is simply more than a make up artist. From start to finish, Sophie managed everything as a true professional; plenty of communication to develop her understanding of what I wanted and she nailed it! Not only did Sophie do our make up, but she also did hair and both were incredible. During my make up tutorial, Sophie also advised on skin care prep, prior to the big day which massively helped with the condition of my skin and treat dry eyes- which I was unaware I even had!
If you book Sophie you’ll often hear from her ‘I’m not just here to do your make up’- and she really does mean that!
For me, it was the additional ‘little touches’ of Sophie that made the experience so special. Ie, she stepped in when none of us could do my son’s tie, she buttoned up my dress (which was not easy!), she was also a ‘supplier’ for all of those little things that you forget, such as a pen and pair of scissors.
To put it bluntly, Sophie really aided to an incredible morning and, in turn, an incredible day. My make up stayed put the whole day and she really listened to what I was looking for. Thank you! Xx

Sophie is the best!!

Sophie did bridal makeup for myself and 3 bridesmaids in March 2024. The trial beforehand was really useful; Sophie was so welcoming and made me feel really comfortable. I wasn't sure what would look good on me but Sophie was able to suggest a few looks and I went for soft glam which was perfect! On the day of the wedding Sophie arrived on time and organised; she had already sent me a run through so we knew the order in which each of us was getting ready. She liaised with our hairdresser to make sure everything would run like clockwork. Our makeup was absolutely beautiful. Sophie adapted the looks for each of us and considered each person's age and makeup ideas. Not only was she a fabulous makeup artist but she helped with other things such as buttoning up my dress as my bridesmaid was struggling and beginning to panic! I would 100% recommend Sophie to any bride to be, she's just fab and a lovely person!

Incredible bridal artist

I cannot recommend Sophie enough. She is incredible.
From our first conversation she made me feel so comfortable - as someone who doesn’t often wear a lot of make up I was pretty nervous about this aspect of the wedding. Sophie put me at ease from the get go. Asking just enough questions about what I wanted to not make me feel overwhelmed.
In the lead up to the wedding she was always super fast to respond to any messages that I sent. The trial went so well and once again her gorgeous personality made me feel comfortable and like I’d known her for years. I was so relaxed around her.
The photos of her work speak for themselves - she’s an incredible artist and did the most amazing job for me and my four bridesmaids (she even made my little 3 year old flower girl feel involved in getting her make up done).
Anyone looking for a bridal artist for their wedding would be lucky to have Sophie involved in their special day.
Thanks so much Soph

professional, talented & kind

Sophie met our expectations & more :)
What an amazing woman!!
The trial was easy to organise and Sophie made me feel totally in control and at ease. On the day, Sophie arrived on time, fully equipped and ready to work her wonders. She remained professional despite the bridal party drama…
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a more supportive, kind, talented individual to get me ready. My makeup& hair remained in place for the whole day & evening, with no touch up required.

A wonderful experience with Sophie

Sophie did a fabulous job of my hair & make-up as a wedding guest for my brother's wedding. Sophie arrived promptly and hit the hair and make-up brief we asked for. Beautiful hair & make-up achieved. I would 100% recommend Sophie- you have talent, Soph, keep doing what you’re doing!

Perfect wedding day hair & make up experience

Sophie was incredible from the get go. She is so laid back whilst offering a high quality and professional service. I honestly felt like I was with a friend both during the trials & on my wedding day morning! She was supportive every step of the way and was flexible to make changes so that I could feel fully confident & comfortable in my hair & make up for my wedding day. I would HIGHLY recommend her.

Sophie is Fab!

Sophie was such a great makeup artist. She did makeup for myself, three bridesmaids and my mother in law and everyone said how lovely and how talented she was at making everyone feel at ease and look their best.

I had a trial with Sophie waaay ahead of my wedding and when I messaged her with about a month to go from the day with some questions she was more than happy to help.

She arrived bright and breezy even at 6am and her timings were perfect. It was like having another bridesmaid there who was calm, knowledgeable and understood how important this part of the day was. She stayed right until my dress was on and I was ready to go.

My makeup lasted all day and night and even after we had a very late post wedding after party my eyelashes had not moved. I’m so pleased with how my makeup looks on the photos as well as my bridal party. I could not recommend Sophie enough and won’t hesitate to book her in the future.

FANTASTIC. Sophie is a really warm person who made me feel fabulous

Sophie was brilliant. I honestly felt like an absolute queen.
She did my mums make up and bridesmaids also they looked amazing.
I really appreciated how she listened to what each person wanted and made us all feel special. She even helped me into my dress and fixed it when we thought it was broken.

The most perfect experience!!

From the first email Sophie was so lovely, quick to respond and professional, I just knew she was the person to support me and my bridesmaids on my wedding morning. I don't usually where much make-up and was initially nervous to book a makeup artist, but there was absolutely no need to be! Soft and glowing was the brief and Sophie's signature, I felt AMAZING the makeup stayed on all day (it really did!!) and felt so natural I got so many compliments that I looked like an elevated version of myself which was everything I hoped for and more. Sophie not only did all our makeup but was super chilled, calming any nerves just chatting and laughing she was like another member of the wedding party. On my trial day Sophie also gave me such great skincare tips ahead of the big day so I felt confident in the run up to the big day my skin would look its best. I could go on and on about how amazing Sophie is!!!

Perfection!

I had the most amazing experience working with Sophie as the MUA for my wedding.
She was incredibly professional right from our first contact to waving me off on the way to the church!
The looks she created for me, my bridesmaids and my mum were perfection. Everyone felt so confident and she made us feel at ease during the whole morning.
Couldn’t recommend enough!!

Absolutely loved my makeup!
Sophie is extremely talented and so down to earth.
After doing such a fantastic job on my wedding day for myself and my maid of honour I had to hire Sophie again to do my makeup for my wedding party a few weeks later.
Not only is the makeup top notch but Sophie is so easy going and listened to exactly what I wanted, creating the perfect look for me.
I’d definitely recommend and will be using Sophie again! X

Absolutely fantastic, cannot recommend highly enough

I recently had the pleasure of working with Sophie, an incredibly talented makeup artist, for my wedding day. I’ve been beyond happy with every step of the process - from the moment we had our initial phone call discussing my ideas, to the makeup and hair trial, and finally to the big day.

Sophie's signature style of soft glam makeup perfectly captured the romantic and elegant look I had envisioned for my wedding day. I can’t even put into words how beautiful I felt on my wedding day, I got so many compliments from people about how stunning my hair and makeup looked, yet I still looked unequivocally like myself.

Not only is Sophie a skilled artist, but she is also an absolute joy to be around. She is friendly and chatty, and instantly puts you at ease – she felt like part of the bridal party on the wedding day which was lovely and definitely helped calm any pre-wedding nerves I had.

On the wedding day Sophie arrived nice and early and got her workstation set up. Her being so organised and calm really helped the day to feel stress free. She flawlessly recreated the makeup and hairstyle we had finalized during the trial, ensuring that I looked stunning throughout the entire day – and it really did last all day, even with lots of drunk dancing in the warm weather!

It's clear that Sophie genuinely cares about making each bride feel beautiful and confident on their special day, and I wholeheartedly recommend Sophie as a wedding makeup artist. Her talent, professionalism, and friendly nature make her an absolute gem to work with. Plus, she has very cute dogs! Thank you Sophie for making my wedding day truly unforgettable!

Wedding make up

Sophie was very professional from start to finish
She was very easy to work with and she listened to what we all wanted on the day Sophie was very organised and gave us a timing schedule for the day Shiah was most helpful. I would highly recommend Sophie she was a delight and would highly recommend her services.

Gorgeous makeup

Sophie provided wedding makeup services for myself + 3 family members this past August. I’m so glad I decided to go with Sophie. I can’t imagine a makeup artist who could be more professional, organised, and friendly. Sophie has a lovely manner and puts everyone at ease. Her style is flexible and she’s able to meet different preferences. Our makeup stayed looking fresh all day long, which is rarely the case for me.
Beyond being fabulous at what she does, Sophie is a lovely person and I was so thrilled to have her with us on the day. Thank you, Sophie! xx
