The Artist Behind the Brush
I'm Emilie — a bridal makeup artist with one focus: making you look and feel like an elevated version of yourself.
My signature style sits in the refined middle ground between natural and glamorous.
This means flawless skin that’s radiant. Soft definition that photographs. Colour chosen for your complexion, not borrowed from someone else’s mood board.
It’s refined without being heavy. Luminous without being overdone. And always, undeniably, you.
Makeup Is More Than What You See
I believe makeup is emotional, giving you the feeling no dress or floral arrangement can: the feeling of being your most beautiful, confident self.
That feeling begins on your wedding morning the moment you sit in my chair. Before the first photo. Before your partner sees you.
That's what I'm here to create. Not just a stunning modern bridal look, but a feeling you carry with you all day.
“Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself.”
Coco Chanel
Beyond the Brush
I'm the first vendor most brides see on their wedding morning, which means I carry a quiet responsibility to set the tone. My chair is a calm, refreshing space. Somewhere to breathe, laugh, and sit quietly to take in the moments.
That’s why I'm built on referrals and repeat bookings. My brides come back for their next special occasion, and they send their friends. That kind of trust is something I don't take lightly, and it's what earned me a place as a finalist in the 2026 New Zealand Wedding Vendor Awards.
Around here, the kit obsession is real. The lattes are non-negotiable. And living and working in one of the most beautiful places on earth never gets old.
If this resonates with you, I'd love to be part of your day.
Ready to Begin?
I take a limited number of weddings each season to make sure every bride gets my full attention.
