makeup artistry

Picture
 Hello, and thank you for checking out my online portfolio. I am a certified Makeup Artist in Halifax, Nova Scotia, with over a decade of Makeup Artistry skills (16 years to be exact).
I entered the industry working in salon settings before turning to M.A.C cosmetics as they  launched their first store East of Montreal, in Halifax. It was at M.A.C that I was able to hone my Makeup skills and dive into my career as a true artist. I was fortunate enough to work on  endless photoshoots, videos, fashion shows, plays, promotional events,
models, brides, the Juno Awards and much more over the years.  

I went on to eventually launch my own Salon for a few years, as I am also a certified
Esthetician, Laser tech and Hairstylist. It quickly become very evident to me , that my true passion in the beauty industry lies within Makeup Artistry. Drawing, painting, creating any type of art with my hands has always come to me very naturally, and has fuelled my creative mind for years; therefore my love for creating art on people is no surprise!

Nowadays, when I am not busy running the family restaurant- Saj House ( www.sajhouse.ca )
I am putting my makeup brushes to good use as a freelance Makeup Artist.​​​

My Makeup work includes, but is not limited to:
                      bridal
                      Prom
                     special Events
                     editorial
                     daytime/headshots
                     video/print
                     special effects
 
It brings me great joy knowing I play a small part  when creating looks that my clients feel confident in, whatever the special occasion may be. My heart and soul goes into every makeup application and that reflects into my work. Whether I am creating a natural look on somebody who rarely applies makeup, or doing a full face, bold makeup application for the most daring, it is customized to each individual's perspective. Everything goes, as long as I see a big smile at the end ;) 

​Please feel free to contact me if you are wanting to collaborate on any upcoming projects as I love getting my creative juices flowing, and believe in supporting the art community that has strongly supported me over the years. 

Cheers for now, see you in my makeup chair!!
