Bridal bookings are recommended 6 to 12 months in advance, particularly for peak summer dates between October and April. Occasion bookings can often be accommodated with shorter notice. Reach out and I will let you know my availability.
Fill out the contact page and I will be in touch within 48 hours to discuss your booking needs. Once we have confirmed the details I will prepare a quote, and your booking will be secured upon receipt of your 30% deposit.
A 30% non-refundable deposit is required to secure all bookings. Payment of the remaining balance depends on the type of booking.
For bridal and personal occasion bookings, the remaining balance is due in full no later than 7 days before your booking date.
For editorial, shoot, headshot and branding bookings, the remaining balance is due within 48 hours of shoot completion. All payments are non-refundable once the deposit has been paid.
I completely understand that plans change. If I have time available on the day I am happy to accommodate an additional person. A separate invoice will be sent and is payable upon receipt. Please note that any services not agreed upon in advance and not included on your original invoice cannot be guaranteed and are at my discretion on the day.
I understand that circumstances can change. Please find my policy outlined below.
Yes, a bridal trial is a requirement for all wedding bookings. It gives us the opportunity to meet, discuss your vision, and perfect your look before the big day. Most brides feel far more at ease on their wedding morning knowing exactly what to expect.
I recommend booking your trial around 2 months before your wedding date, however you are welcome to schedule it at any time that suits you. The most important thing is that it is completed before your wedding day so we can perfect your look together.
Please bring makeup inspiration images so we can discuss and refine your desired look. Any relevant information about your skin, such as allergies or sensitivities, is also helpful to share at this stage. The trial includes an extra 30 minutes on top of a standard appointment to allow time for adjustments and different ideas.
The goal is always for you to leave the chair feeling confident and beautiful. If anything does not feel right, please communicate with me openly during the appointment. That is exactly what the trial is for. We will not move forward until you are completely happy with the look.
Because we have already perfected your look at the trial, your wedding day application takes 60 minutes. I allow an additional 15 minutes at the end of the booking to touch up the entire bridal party before I leave.
I arrive 10 minutes before your scheduled booking time to set up so that we can begin promptly.
Please cleanse your face prior to your appointment and apply a light moisturiser suitable for your skin type.
I can accommodate up to 6 people including the bride. As each application takes 60 minutes, I recommend discussing your timeline with me at the time of booking so we can plan the morning accordingly.
To keep the morning running smoothly and on schedule, all services must be agreed upon and invoiced in advance. Requests for additional services on the day, such as lash applications or touch-ups for guests not included in the original booking, cannot be guaranteed and are subject to time and availability. Please get in touch ahead of time if your needs change so I can plan accordingly.
Yes. A 30% non-refundable deposit is required to secure all editorial, shoot, headshot and branding bookings. The remaining balance is due within 48 hours of shoot completion. I will send an invoice after the shoot for the outstanding balance.
All shoot rates include full makeup application, on-set presence and touch-ups throughout the booked time. Travel within 10km of Tauranga CBD is included. Any overtime beyond the booked hours is charged at $60 per hour and will be added to your final invoice.
Yes. I am available to work directly with photographers, creative directors, brands and production companies. Please get in touch with your brief and shoot details and I will get back to you within 48 hours.
Subject to availability. Please get in touch as early as possible and I will do my best to accommodate. Last minute bookings of less than 48 hours notice require the full amount to be paid upfront before I confirm.
Yes, I am available throughout the Bay of Plenty and beyond. Travel within 10km of Tauranga CBD is included in all bookings. For locations beyond this, a travel fee applies.
Travel beyond 10km from Tauranga CBD is charged at $1.17 per kilometre return. For destination bookings requiring overnight accommodation, additional costs will be discussed and quoted separately.
I work with a curated kit of professional, high-end brands including MAC, NARS, Kosas, Hourglass, and Too Faced. Every product is chosen for its performance, longevity, and finish.
Absolutely. I carry a wide range of foundation shades and colour correctors to find the perfect match for every skin tone. Whether you have dry, oily, combination, or mature skin I will tailor the products and application to suit you.
I take skin sensitivities seriously. Please let me know of any known allergies or sensitivities at the time of booking or at your trial so I can select the most appropriate products for you.
I specialise in makeup only. However there is usually a hair stylist working alongside me and I am happy to recommend trusted professionals in the Tauranga area.
Please head to the contact page and I will get back to you within 48 hours. I am always happy to chat through any questions you have before booking.
