Amazing bridal make up

Sophie was amazing from start to finish! The process from first contact to the wedding day itself was straight forward and the communication was brilliant all the way through. If you are a worrier like me, I would definitely recommend booking Sophie as she is proactive in her communication and kept everything totally hassle free. Myself and my bridal party only have amazing things to say about how our make up turned out on the day and both of our mothers were also over the moon with how theirs turned out. The vibes on the wedding morning were also so positive which totally makes a difference! Thanks so much again :)

Best hair & make up

Sophie was amazing from booking all the way up to the wedding ! My hair and make up made me feel so special and confident on my biggest day 🤍

Sophie helped me and my bridesmaids and mum feel and look wonderful. Helping me to keep calm on the day and stayed up until we went down to the ceremony.

I couldn’t recommend enough !
Thank you for everything 🤍🤍

Incredibly talented!

What an incredibly talented and kind hearted person Sophie is! I came across Sophie's work when I was looking for a soft make up look for my wedding day. Throughout the entire process, Sophie has been professional and considerate. She carefully curated a look based off my skin type and make up preferences, and took into consideration my concerns. The finished look was better than I envisioned and remained flawless even in hot weather.
My bridal party and I felt relaxed and at ease on the morning of my wedding thanks to Sophie, and she enhanced everyone's beauty. I cannot recommend Sophie enough!

Now I just need to figure out how to put you in my pocket and carry you around as my own personal hair and make up artist!

Where do I even start... Sophie was the most incredible supportive person to have with me on my wedding day. But her support began long before I sat in her chair wedding morning. She was calm, happy, bubbly and the sweetest person you want in your corner when planning this magical day. She listened to what I wanted and brought my hair and make up vision to life in a way I never expected. She allowed me to see that I can look absolutely stunning but also look like the healthiest, most vibrant version of myself. Honestly Sophie your support on my wedding day and on the lead up to it, was everything I imagined and more and I am so grateful I had you there. You were so wonderfully calm that it allowed me to truly be present on the wedding morning and you really did work magic! I felt like a literal princess. Thank you so much I am forever grateful to you! If you are looking to book Sophie I guarantee she was worth every single penny. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Sophie. Now I just need to figure out how to put you in my pocket and carry you around as my own personal hair and make up artist!
P.S. my hair and make up even survived a Slovakian Redovy ... see the last few photos :)

Absolutely gorgeous human being, and the most beautiful romantic/refined hair and makeup 🤍

I honestly couldn’t recommend Sophie more to any bride-to-be looking for her gorgeous romantic/natural style. Sophie was the most calming presence on our wedding morning, and such a lovely soul. I would honestly choose her over and over if I could, so really hope my friends book her for their weddings (and some aren’t even engaged yet)!
I booked Sophie for my hair and make-up and she made me feel so beautiful both on the trial and wedding day! Im not a huge hair and make-up girl day-to-day, so was always quite anxious about what I’d have on my wedding day, until I met Sophie! She also worked her magic on my mum, mum-in-law and sister as we had an intimate day, and they were all in agreement of how gorgeous her work is for them too! She really takes time to get to know you on the trial and what your likes and wants are for the wedding day, made some great product recommendations which I’m still using weeks after the wedding. Thank you so much Sophie, from the booking process, to trial, to wedding day everything was perfect ❤️

Simply beautiful! Thank you!

Sophie was all I was looking for when searching for a makeup artist for my wedding AND more!
On our trial she created exactly the minimal, glowing makeup look I was looking for. She even advised me on my skin type as she could see straight away how dry my skin was. After that I integrated a product she recommended into my daily routine, and wow - my skin has never been better!
Straight away I felt like I had made a friend when meeting Sophie. Conversation and communication couldn’t have been more easy and I felt seen and understood. ✨
During our trial she also created the hairstyle I wanted for the wedding which she had perfected for the actual wedding day. As she made me look exactly how I imagined it, Sophie helped me settle my nerves. Later on, after getting into the dress - under calm but stern instructions which was just what I needed - she touched up my makeup and even gave my arms and collar bones a glow.

Besides the perfect bridal look Sophie also made my five bridesmaids look exactly how they wanted; regardless of the coverage and their individual wishes, Sophie made all of them glow and feel happy and confident throughout the day!

I cannot thank her enough for having supported me throughout and having given me a confident boost for my special day!! xx

Everyone needs a Sophie!

We got married 28/03/26 from the first contact with Sophie she put my mind at ease. I’m not girlie I was worried about my makeup being professionally done as I was nervous it would look too much. At the preview appointment Sophie stopped after every application to check I was ok, and I met Zoe who was just as welcoming.
Sophie sent me a timing list before the big day so we were all organised. On the day Sophie turned into my fairy godmother she didn’t just handle my needs, she calmed my adhd/asd daughter got my Tom boy daughter to wear make up for the first time. She wrangled my photographer who was panicking me about timing. She became a seamstress fixing a broken bridesmaid dress, helping me into my dress, finding lost flowers, an as for her ability as a makeup artist incredible. Everyone needs the dynamic due Sophie and Zoe at there wedding!

My perfect wedding morning

Sophie was honestly so amazing throughout the entire process. She was so kind about finding second artists, recommending other suppliers, adapting to changes and always responding so quickly to every little question I sent her.

She did beautiful makeup for myself, my mum and bridesmaids. We were all so so happy with how it looked and all felt like it was really personalised to our style. Most importantly to me, she was the loveliest person to have with us on the wedding morning. I couldn't have wished for a more friendly, chatty and energetic person. She made the whole morning feel easy and stress-free and made all the girls feel stunning!

I really could not recommend or thank Sophie enough. She gave me my perfect wedding morning!

January wedding

Sophie was wonderful. Professional and knowledgeable. She did the makeup for my whole bridal party and we were delighted with the results. I appreciated the extra touches like providing a schedule for the morning of the wedding.

Superstar Stylist!!

I couldn't recommend Sophie enough for her expertise, calmness and for making my feel amazing on my wedding! I wanted to feel myself with a natural look, only elevated and she was able to listen and create my perfect look. She also looked after my 5 bridesmaids and my mum who all loved theirs - my mum was nervous to have hers done but Sophie was so good with her and made her feel amazing too! Highly recommend for anyone looking for someone!

Simply amazing!

Sophie did my mum’s and my makeup for my wedding day, and all I can say is that she was absolutely amazing! Not only is Sophie an incredibly talented makeup artist, but she is also such a lovely person who helped keep me calm and relaxed on the day.
We had a trial beforehand and Sophie was so thorough, instantly understanding the look we were hoping for. My mum and I wanted a natural look with a little something extra, and Sophie captured this beautifully. We were both so happy with our makeup after the trial, but on the wedding day we were completely blown away. I genuinely couldn’t believe it was me when I looked in the mirror!
A huge thank you to Sophie – you are so talented and truly the kind of person every bride needs on their wedding day to help them feel confident, calm, and beautiful ❤️

Makeup superstar!

I cannot recommend Sophie enough, she helped make the day absolutely perfect. She did make up for myself and 3 bridesmaids for my big day and her calm and relaxed vibes made getting ready a dream. From the trial to the final touch-up, she exceeded every expectation. Sophie talked through everything with me in my trial and gave me some really good advice and ideas (as someone who isn’t very good at makeup, I didn’t really have a clue what I was after). Sophie’s style is really natural and elegant and I felt like she really highlighted my features, made me look and feel like an absolute princess but still felt like me. She worked seamlessly with my hairdresser to make the whole morning prep run smoothly and even planned in time for touch ups so we never felt rushed. She worked around a week-old baby and even helped iron the bridesmaids’ dresses so we didn’t ruin our makeup. Sophie made the whole bridal party feel utterly stunning and our make up lasted well after the last dance, everything looked incredible in both natural light and the professional photography.
If you are looking for a makeup artist who is professional, talented, incredibly calming, and provides genuinely exceptional, above-and-beyond service, book Sophie immediately! She was one of the best decisions we made for the entire wedding.

Everyone needs a Sophie on their wedding day!

The morning wouldn’t have been the same without her!

From the moment I went for my trial, Sophie put me at ease. I was not sure the look I wanted to go for and therefore Sophie helped me along the way. She listened, we tried different looks and she made sure I was absolutely comfortable and happy.

I have naturally curly hair and so was unsure how to style it - Sophie showed her ability to deal with my wild hair and made it look easy.

She is extremely professional and her kit is unbelievably clean. She is a true expert in the world of makeup (something I do not have a clue about!) and she is similarly talented with bridal hair. She fitted in well with my very large bridal party and put everyone at ease (including both mums who have never had their makeup done).

I would also like to add that Sophie woke up at 3am to travel to my venue and was prompt and on time. We had plenty of time to spare, the morning was without any stress and she ensured she provided a timetable beforehand so I could update people of who would be next in the “hot seat”.
Sophie worked incredibly with my photographer too.

I felt the best I have ever felt on my wedding day and a huge part of that is down to Sophie. I can’t reccomend her enough!!! She is a stunning woman inside and out. Thanks for everything x

Just amazing!

Sophie was the best hair and make up artist I could have asked for on my wedding day. Even though I probably stressed her out so much with 4 hairs and 3 make ups to do within a few hours, she was incredibly friendly, stuck up for us when a guest in the room over was being a bit of a downer on the day, and she made us all look absolutely fantastic. She is so easy to get along with and I would always wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who needed bridal hair and make up done ❤️

Trust Sophie for soft, natural make-up and warm, lovely vibes!

From the start, working with Sophie was a dream! I absolutely loved her natural, soft and glowing style. I don't wear make-up usually, and I ended up having two trials. Sophie was so kind and helped me to express what I wanted to tweak, and she smashed it because after the second trial, I didn't want to take it off! And on the wedding day, it felt so comfortable and natural that I honestly forgot I was wearing make-up (which is a huge compliment from me!). Through it all, Sophie has been just so wonderful. She created such a safe space, gave so much advice and guidance, and was just generally lovely to work with in every way! I strongly recommend her - you will love her too!
