About

Makeup by Katerina is run by Katerina, a bridal makeup artist who has worked exclusively in bridal beauty since 2020. Makeup and hair are handled by one artist rather than split across several vendors, which keeps the look consistent from start to finish.

Bridal work begins with a personal consultation, after which a tailored proposal is prepared. Packages range from a virtual vision consultation with wedding-day makeup, hair or both, to a full-day on-site stylist for up to eight hours that includes reference looks, a second look or reception change, and a skin care kit. Elopements, multi-day weddings and larger bridal parties are priced by custom quote.

Outside weddings, the studio offers makeup for photoshoots, commercial productions and personal celebrations, along with everyday and evening makeup lessons and a self-love photo and beauty session. Booking inquiries are answered within 24 hours of form submission. Bridal bookings require a signed contract and a non-refundable retainer to hold the date, and they cannot be booked through the direct online form.

One artist handles both makeup and hairstyling, with each bridal look shaped around the client's features and vision.

The owner describes the chair as a judgment-free space.
