wedding makeup
More than 100+ brides have shared their special day with me, trusting me to bring their timeless look to life. What a profound honor, and seeing their radiant happiness fills my heart!
your GLAM investment
My signature glam - envision a day that embodies “skin-like complexions, neutral and earth tones with romantic pops of color for your cheeks and lips. This look translates on camera with such elegance. “Its the elevated look you’ve always envisioned.”
Wedding mornings can have a lot of moving parts, and I would love to be by your side, bringing calm and confidence to every beautiful moment. I’m the kind of artist that focuses on color theory, placement and textures.
Trends are cool but my work embodies timeless sophistication.
Investment: $350.00
TMA’s point of view
minimalist makeup for all skintones & complexions
For this radiant bride you shown here, #Temptu Airbrush formula was used to enhance her natural glow. I believe starting with a clean and organized space and a pampering skincare routine before the glam even begins. I created a soft, glowing timeless look with long lasting foundation, subtle contouring and a touch of highlight to accent her beauty. Neutral eye-shadows are used to never overpower; leaving you feeling radiant and confident just like Nikki.
I believe: “Makeup should project a romantic you, not a different you!”
airbrush formulation
Airbrush makeup is a real favorite among the TMA Brides (around 80% choose it!)
WHAT IS IT: this technique applies a liquid foundation with an air gun, creating an even coverage.
VALUE ADD: This formula is so sheer that its’ almost undetectable. It’s for the MINIMALIST BRIDE. Feels incredibly light and breathable, designed to enhance your natural beauty without feeling heavy or cakey on your skin.
LONGEVITY: Average wear time is up to 10 hours,
Investment: Airbrush $350

What is it: #TEMPTU makeup is applied with an air compressor and a handheld gun that sprays a fine mist onto the skin.
80% of TMA Brides choose the airbrush finish over a traditional formula because of its weightless feel and build-able coverage.
Average wear time is up to 10 hours. Known for being long-lasting, transfer resistant being silicone based.
Note: TEMPTU foundation won’t cover (deep or large acne scarring, moles, etc). And if you haven’t dermaplane your facial hair, it can accentuate dry patches.
-
Why is derma-plane": Facial peach fuzz can trap dirt, oil, and makeup, leading to a less smooth application. By removing it with facial shaving, you create a perfect canvas that allows your makeup to glide on evenly and look cleaner.
Requires: specialized equipment and a skilled artist.

In-salon hours are typically Sunday and Monday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. On-location appointments are also available on other days.

Makeup for photos is a more technical application, meticulously crafted to withstand the demands of a camera.
Longevity: It's built to be transfer-proof and last for hours, through tears, hugs, and varying weather.
Finish: The look is elevated and more detailed, with careful sculpting and definition to ensure features show up against bright lights.
Application: The process takes longer due to the careful layering and specific product choices.
