Makeup Artist in Richmond
Petersham greenhouses, riverside light, and bridal makeup made for gardens and long lenses.
Richmond gives London some of its loveliest wedding light — the river, the hill, the park — and its venues are a joy to work for. A Richmond morning usually means getting ready at home or in a hotel overlooking the Thames, then a ceremony among flowers or by the water, with photographs that run until the light goes.
Garden weddings need a particular technique: makeup that reads softly in daylight, stands up to warmth and weather, and photographs cleanly against all that green. That’s the brief I build for here, layer by layer.
Wedding mornings in Richmond
I take bookings for Petersham Nurseries weddings, mornings at The Petersham and the riverside hotels, and at-home preparations across Richmond Hill, Kew and Teddington. The journey from central London is easy and planned into the day — I arrive with time in hand, every time.

Do you charge extra to travel to Richmond?
Travel across London is part of how I work and is simply included in the quote I give you — no surprises. For very early starts I plan the journey with a margin, so the morning never waits for me.
My reception is outdoors — will the makeup last?
Yes. For garden venues I use long-wearing, humidity-resistant layers and finish the look in natural light, the same light your photographs will be taken in. A touch-up kit for the evening can be arranged.
