Studio Bride was created by Paige Smith, who owns the agency, and it has been providing hair and makeup services for more than seven years. Kayla is the co-owner. The agency works as a collective: it represents freelance artists rather than employing a single team, and its artists are based in Jacksonville, Florida and St. Louis, Missouri.
The agency's specialties include weddings with large bridal parties, boudoir and engagement sessions, and work in fashion and beauty, production, commercial and underwater shoots. Its artists work in airbrush and traditional makeup, updos, color matched extensions and bridal styling. Each artist brings their own products and tools chosen for the client's skin tone, hair or skin type, age and desired look, and airbrush foundation is used on every client.
Booking starts with an online form, after which pricing and availability are provided. To reserve an event date, a signed bridal service agreement and a non-refundable reservation fee are required; that fee is not deducted from the event day total. A bridal trial covers one look, and several looks can be booked as back-to-back trials. The artist who does the trial is normally the artist who attends the wedding day, unless the client asks for someone else. Artists are assigned by location and availability unless a specific artist is requested. About one to two months before the wedding, a detailed day schedule is sent for approval. The business allows about 30 minutes per application and builds buffer time into event timelines. Clients may bring their own makeup to be used.
Payment is preferred in cash, paid to each artist on the day of the event, and most artists also accept Venmo or card. Card payments add a 20% gratuity automatically. Otherwise, the standard gratuity of 20% to 25% is not included unless paid by card.
The business says it has been recognized with The Knot Best of Weddings and WeddingWire Couples Choice awards six years in a row, and that it holds a place in The Knot Hall of Fame. It also describes itself as a 5-star rated agency and says its work has appeared in magazines, on television and online. The site describes its artists as certified, and the FAQ states that all artists are insured and licensed professionals. The team has been trained by celebrity makeup artist Nicky Posley.
Artists choose their own products and tools for each client, and every client receives airbrush foundation.
