What my Client Says

Kendra is a consummate professional.

When my MUA dropped out the week of my shoot, Kendra stepped in and exceeded everything. She eased my nerves, perfected a natural yet luminous look with the pop of color I asked for, and even helped with my hair. Professional, warm, and flawless. My only regret is not having her for the wedding. I will work with her again.

What My Client Says

Kendra doesn’t just do makeup—she creates magic!

Kendra is amazing! She’s done my makeup for a photo shoot and a gala, and both times the process was seamless. She helps plan the look around your outfit, travels to you, and delivers stunning results that last all day. She's professional, friendly, and made me feel so beautiful. I won’t go to anyone else!

Kendra is a GEM!

Her warm spirit and unmatched professionalism made my 30th birthday photoshoot unforgettable. She tailored my makeup perfectly to all three outfits, and it lasted flawlessly all day.

Love Notes From My Client

Kendra was so understanding and made it so easy to reschedule

I booked Kendra to surprise my mom for her 70th. When we had to reschedule, she made it easy. Consultation, deposit, invoices, and follow ups were seamless. On the day, she arrived fully prepared, lighting included, and created makeup that looked flawless and lasted all night without flaking or looking cakey. My mom asked for privacy without her hijab, so I am sharing mine. We both felt beautiful.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your dream look deserves clarity. Get answers to our most asked questions HERE.

HOW LONG WILL MY MAKEUP LAST?

Whether you’re walking down the aisle, stepping in front of the camera, or celebrating a milestone, your makeup is designed to last 8-12+ hours. I prep your skin with professional products and techniques tailored to your skin type, so your look holds up through tears, laughter, dancing, or bright studio lights. Brides often share that their makeup looks flawless well into the reception, while my photoshoot and event clients love how their glam stays picture-perfect from the first click to the final shot.

Do you provide hair services as well as makeup?

Yes! While makeup artistry is my specialty, I work closely with a trusted team of bridal hairstylists and event stylists to provide a seamless, coordinated look. If you’d like to book hair and makeup together, I’ll arrange everything so your morning flows smoothly and your final reveal is cohesive, polished, and perfectly aligned with your vision.

CAN I BOOK YOU FOR A JOB OUTSIDE OF the dmv?

Absolutely. While I’m based in the Washington, D.C. area, I regularly travel for weddings, photoshoots, and special events. Whether you’re planning a destination wedding, hosting a celebration out of state, or shooting on location, I can bring my artistry and concierge-level service to you.

Travel rates and accommodations are customized based on your location and the scope of your booking, and I’ll coordinate with you (or your planner/production team) to make sure the process is seamless. Your beauty experience doesn’t have to be limited by geography—I’m happy to meet you wherever your big moment takes you.
