Makeup by Morgan

Makeup by Morgan works from a studio in downtown Valparaiso, where in-studio appointments are held, and also takes makeup to clients on location. The business describes itself as a premier on-location makeup artist. Owner Morgan Hecht is the business's makeup artist, and bridal makeup makes up the largest part of the work.

The Bridal Package costs $350 and begins with a 90-minute trial session at the downtown studio. The trial includes a full face of airbrush makeup with false lashes, photos taken under a ring light, a face chart log, and photos sent to the client afterward. On the wedding day, the package includes airbrush makeup, a choice of false lash styles, on-location makeup and a five-piece touch-up kit. Payment is split, with half due on the trial day and the rest due on the wedding day. The business also offers bride-only options.

Outside of bridal work, the studio offers an in-studio Special Event Makeup session for $100. It runs 60 minutes and includes a full face of airbrush makeup and false lashes. A Teen Special Event session at the same price, also 60 minutes, is done in traditional or airbrush makeup as the client requests, with false lashes available in many sizes and styles. The Bridesmaid and Attendant Package, $100, covers groups, including the mother of the bride and groom, with traditional or airbrush application. Clients can add false lashes in strip or individual styles and receive a full-size lip color of their choice.

Bouquet for a Day rents handcrafted bridal bouquets, bridesmaid bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres. Rentals cover four days: two days before the event, the event day, and the day after for return. Booking requires a signed contract and a 50% deposit, with the balance due at pickup. The Bridal Toss Bouquet is sold rather than rented.

Styled shoot, TV and commercial work is booked through the contact form, where clients describe the opportunity in detail. Pricing for that work is decided per project. Larger parties can be accommodated by bringing multiple artists. According to the business, its reviews are all five stars.

Traditional and airbrush application are both offered, and the studio chooses the method with the client.
