    Emma was an absolute joy to work with for my wedding day makeup. Her communication was clear, organized, and timely throughout the planning process, which I really appreciated during an otherwise hectic time. The quality of Emma's work is exceptional and well worth the investment. She has an incredible ability to enhance her clients' natural beauty rather than overpower it. I felt like the best possible version of myself walking down the aisle! Some highlights working with Emma: She listened carefully to understand the look I envisioned and recommended products/techniques that brought that vision to life flawlessly. Emma made me feel so comfortable, confident, and beautiful on my wedding day. Highly recommend her services!

    Emma was a true pleasure to work with on my wedding day. I had a vague idea of what I wanted (sultry Bollywood glamour) and she worked with me to create a mood board and develop the perfect vision. On my wedding day, I really appreciated her calm and easygoing demeanor - she worked with my hectic schedule and tons of family coming in and out of the hotel suite without skipping a beat - she was so calm and collected the whole time. She also stayed for touch-ups, traveling all over downtown Manhattan with me and my photographer, and then sent me off with an adorable custom bag with everything I needed to do touch-ups on my own. I didn't even need it though, my makeup looked incredible all night. My sister was also thrilled with her makeup! 10/10 would recommend.

    Emma made sure our wedding day make up was perfect! This was the first makeup artist my wife and I have ever used and we loved every single idea she brought to the table. She made the process so easy and smooth, and kept us chatting the day of to bring our nerves down. Thank you Emma!
