Exquisite Wedding Makeup In Connecticut

Traveling To Your Home, Hotel Or Our Milford, CT Makeup Studio

For your wedding day, you want a makeup artist who:

  • Helps you look and feel fabulous without without feeling weighed down by heavy or cakey “for-photos-only” makeup

  • Truly listens to your desires and gives you what you like and doesn’t pressure you into what she/he wants you to like

  • Patiently works with you to discover your perfect look, without looking like someone else, even if you’re not 100% sure what that is

You already know what you don’t want: cakey foundation. Harsh contour. A look that doesn’t feel like you when you walk past the mirror.

What’s harder to explain? What you do want - especially when every artist is saying the same thing.

I understand that your wedding day beauty is about more than how you look—it’s about how you feel.

My unique approach lets you light up the room and capture breathtaking photos—without ever feeling like you're wearing a mask.

With my signature light-but-expert touch, I enhance your favorite features, ensuring you look just as stunning in person as you do in photos, so you can embody all the joy, love, and excitement of this once-in-a-lifetime moment.

  • Jennifer was absolutely fabulous to work with! She was more concerned than I to ensure I had a perfect face for my wedding day. She arrived early to set up, used top quality products and even was flexible on the day of my wedding to add in an extra person. She is both a talented makeup artist with an eye for eyes (everyone loved how well she accentuated their eyes and so did I!) as well as a top quality professional who was supportive, responsive and encouraging from the first moment we initially spoke right up to my wedding.”

    - Jill S, Bride; Norwalk, CT

  • “Jennifer is AMAZING!!! She did my bridal party and my make up for my wedding, and she did a phenomenal job!!! I felt like a movie star. She listened to everything I wanted and made it happen! Love her and all she does! And her new product line is amazing too!!" My make up looked amazing and my photos were flawless!!! A bride could not ask for more...”

    Jamie Olson, Bride, The Waterview Monroe

  • "Jenn did an absolutely beautiful job on my pre-wedding trial makeup. She went above and beyond to accommodate our hectic schedule that day, was flexible with moving things around and very communicative. She was also very patient at my trial and the results were fantastic. She is absolutely meticulous and the utmost professional in every way - we would highly recommend.

    - Jen Han, Killingworth, CT Bride

  • “Her makeup application, not only for me (the bride), but also for all of the bridesmaids lasted all day and came out beautifully on pictures”

    Elizabeth H, Bride; Trumbull CT

  • The whole experience was wonderful. At first I thought it was expensive but I’ve never gotten married before so I didn’t know what to expect. After many trials with other makeup artists, I was freaking out because I didn’t like how I looked with any of them. Jenn was worth every penny, I felt like myself only better, my eyes popped with the products she used it were amazing. She came on time, actually early, used high end products and my makeup lasted until past midnight! She’s also fun to be around, like a good friend and really helped me relax that morning. We also had a makeup lesson so I’d know how to do it for the honeymoon and I finally feel like I know what I’m doing.”

    — Kate B, Bride; New Rochelle, NY

  • “…my wedding was hot, humid and a tornado came through not too far from where our beach front wedding was (Fairfield, CT) and my make up endured the elements through the whole day and night. I was highly impressed with my bridal trial and day of make up!”

    -Carly S, Bride; Fairfield, CT

  • …”Loved my glam look! The best part to me is I still felt like myself but totally enhanced. What I mean is, I did not feel “caked up” and I was still glowing!!!

  • “…I met a friend soon after and she was all praises for the natural finish the makeup had and how flawless my skin looked. I don’t wanna wash my face. I am more than happy with my experience and would definitely recommend Jennifer to my friends and family. The best makeup application in CT.”

    -Akhila Gautham, Event Makeup: Milford CT

  • “The amount of compliments we got was overwhelming. Jenn listened to exactly what I wanted and my makeup lasted all night!!! Cannot recommend her enough for your event.”

    -Sofia Buckey, Bride; Woodbridge, CT

  • “The makeup was absolutely beautiful! My face was so smooth and the makeup lasted all night. Jenn was so professional, talented and kind! Thank you Jenn for the incredible service. I highly recommend her!”

    -Nadia Sienz, Event Makeup; Orange, CT

Here’s What I Do Differently

A Relaxed, Fun Getting-Ready Experience

The morning of your wedding should feel exciting, not stressful. I create a calm, inviting atmosphere so you can fully enjoy the process.

Expect:
🎶 A fun, calming, warm presence (yes, I’ll ask your favorite music to set the vibe!)
💄 A perfectionist’s attention to detail—your look will be flawless
✨ A seamless experience, so you can relax and soak in every moment

  • I’m not sending you a team member. You get me.

  • When you book, you’re getting 17 years of camera-ready experience-and the calm that comes with someone who’s done this hundreds of times before.

  • You won’t have to chase me down for a timeline. You’ll know what time to start, where to sit and when to take a breath, I’ll even remind you to eat

My Signature Look: Natural/Soft Glam

Brides often tell me, “I want to feel like myself, just more elevated, polished and really beautiful.” That’s exactly what I deliver.

My signature approach creates:
✨ Flawless, glowing skin with expert prep and custom-blended foundation (airbrush or traditional) so you still look like yourself - even close up. Just smoother, glowier, and more pulled together. Like the version of you that shows up in good lighting after a great night’s sleep.
✨ Modern, elevated eyes paired with soft, natural false lashes — for your eyes, your skin tone, your face shape —none of it is ‘standar’. That’s why you won’t get a one-size- fits-all technique copied from Instagram.
✨ A fresh, effortless beauty—think Hailey Bieber meets Sofia Richie, with a touch more fun

  • There’s a reason my brides don’t need touch-ups until after their first dance. I build makeup to last through hugs, heat and even tears. Confidence is knowing you don’t have to second-guess your makeup in every photo or worry about it smudging halfway through.

  • You also don’t need to know what a cut-crease is. Just tell me what makeup makes you nervous (big fake lashes? too much bronzer?) — and what you feel like you. I’ll take it from there

Luxury Skincare & Makeup Products for High-Performance Wear

You won’t leave with foundation clinging to dry patches or sliding off your face. I match formulas to your skin and your day. Your makeup needs to work as hard as I do. I use hand-picked, high-performance products from brands like:

✔ Tatcha
✔ Armani
✔ YSL
✔ Dior and more

The result? A time-tested bridal look that lasts, with only minimal touch-ups needed throughout the day.


Airbrush Makeup Services

Lightweight, Long-Lasting, and Flawless

Both airbrush and traditional makeup create stunning, long-lasting results—but airbrush offers a next-level finish perfect for special occasions.

  • Used by film and TV artists for its flawless, even, and non-cakey appearance, airbrush makeup looks incredibly natural—even in HD cameras. It feels weightless, lasts longer than traditional makeup, and won’t settle into fine lines or transfer onto clothes.

  • For a wedding day or any event where flawless, all-day wear is a must, airbrush makeup is an excellent choice.

Need hair styling?

My little black book contains more than a few trusted hairstylists who can serve you on your wedding day. I’ll even check their availability for you. Just ask.

This is for brides who:

  • Appreciate a high touch experience with a makeup artist who’s calming, professional and fun

  • Desire a who specializes in natural/soft glam

  • Wants the focus on her own beautiful features, not her makeup

Not for brides who:

  • Have a very particular way of doing their own makeup where they are 99% sure no makeup artist could replicate

  • Are considering having a friend or family member do their makeup with no professional wedding background

5 Simple Steps To Your Perfect Bridal Makeup

STEP 1: INQUIRE ABOUT YOUR DATE

Reach out to see whether I’m available on your wedding day. If my calendar is open, I recommend booking a bridal makeup trial so we can work together to find the perfect products and approach for you. Please note that, due to popularity, dates for trials are limited, and we usually book out several months in advance. 98% of brides who have a trial book their wedding date.

STEP 2: SHARE YOUR VISION

Before and during your bridal makeup trial, we’ll start by going over your past makeup experiences, and you can tell me what you know you don’t want. If you have inspiration pictures, you can share them, but if not, don’t worry: we’ll work together to create a look that suits you, even if you don’t know how to describe it.

You’ll receive an email with a makeup and skincare questionnaire that includes what you can expect during your makeup trial.

STEP 3: THE WEDDING MAKEUP TRIAL

First, we’ll work on prepping your skin so that your makeup will last, and then we’ll discover your ideal look for the big day. Try out airbrush makeup, traditional makeup, neutral colors, and smoky eyes during our 90-minute session. We’ll take lots of photos as your look develops, so you can see how it appears on camera. You’ll walk out of the room knowing exactly how you’ll look on your big day.

STEP 4: COUNTDOWN TIME

I’ll personally touch base with you to confirm day-of details, final headcount, and to remind you how it’s all going to work out beautifully (yep, those nerves will likely be high). You’ll receive a bridal beauty timeline that tells you exactly what time we’re starting and who’s going when. The goal: finish with plenty of time for you to take a deep breath and soak in the moment before pictures begin. 

STEP 5: THE BIG DAY

I’ll personally text you in the morning to let you know I’m on the way and to find out your room number. I arrive on time (usually 15 minutes early) to set up my chair and get started with skin prep and your makeup application. Throughout the day, I’m in touch with your photographer and planner so that everything goes off on time.
