I’m a makeup artist in Coburg North, Melbourne, doing bridal, events and editorial. My thing is bold colour and graphic liner, done so it lasts all day and photographs beautifully.

If you want timeless and traditional, I’m probably not your girl. If you want to look like you, only louder, we’ll get along.
