About Smudge

Smudge

Owner of Smudge & Lead Makeup Artist

My name is Amber, and I'm the owner of Smudge. I have been in the industry for 10 years working weddings, editorial, and film. Weddings have been a constant throughout my career and styling brides has been my favorite type of make-up. I love being a part of someone's special day and creating a look that makes them feel like the best version of themselves. In 2018 I started Smudge, a team of on-site hair and makeup artists based in South Eastern CT, specializing in weddings. We're an onsite team that serves all of Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Massachusetts, and beyond. *Now booking 2025 and 2026*

Our professionalism and communication is top notch. I take your whole wedding day into consideration when developing your hair and makeup schedule to ensure that everything runs smooth and on time; allowing you to enjoy your wedding morning stress free and able to enjoy those special moment just before you're married.

    Amber and Sarah were great! I felt the most beautiful I’ve ever felt! My bridal party had a great time working with them and we actually ended up ahead of schedule! They were both professional but still brought some great conversations and laughs to the room. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for hair and makeup services!

    As the owner of Smudge Makeup, I'm thrilled to shout out my incredible team of Grace, Megan, Stephanie, Lisa, and Sarah. They all did amazing work on the hair and makeup for my wedding, and I received compliments all night on how beautiful and long-lasting it was. My bridal party, mothers, and grandmothers all looked stunning thanks to their talented hands. I was quite stressed while getting ready due to some unfortunate circumstances, but the team was able to calm me down and help me be present in the moment. I highly recommend booking my girls - they truly do exceptional work and went above and beyond to make my wedding day perfect, just as they would do for you.

    Working with Smudge for our wedding day makeup/hair was an absolute delight. Their communication was quick, helpful, and so nice - they were able to put me at ease when I was feeling nervous, and we had a fun, laidback time listening to music while they worked their magic. The quality of their work was impeccable, stunning, and left everyone looking model-level gorgeous. The guide on their website was really helpful in knowing exactly what they needed to make the day go as smoothly as possible. Smudge truly contributed to making our special day perfect and I can't recommend them enough!
