For over 14 years, I've had the honor of serving brides as a experienced licensed Esthetician and professional makeup artist, specializing in refined, natural bridal makeup that enhances, never masks -your natural beauty.
With a deep understanding of skin health and how makeup translates both in person and on camera, my work is focused on creating luminous, lightweight looks that feel like you—elevated for one of the most meaningful days of your life.
As the heart behind Veil of Grace Artistry, my approach is rooted in experience, intention, and care. Every look is thoughtfully customized to complement your features, your wedding aesthetic, and the way you want to feel when you see yourself in the mirror.
MY VISION
Veil of Grace Artistry was created for brides who want to feel like themselves on their wedding day—not overly done, not transformed, but thoughtfully cared for.
This service exists to offer an elevated, calming approach to bridal makeup—one that honors skin, individuality, and the quiet confidence that comes from feeling comfortable in your own beauty.

Reviews from past Brides
I have no words to describe how beautifully amazing Amy made me look and feel the day of my wedding. She did my makeup and all 4 of my bridesmaids. We were speechless and so were our husbands., boyfriends and friends. She took her time on perfecting our features of our face and the makeup lasted all night. It felt natural and looked even more beautiful . I have never felt more beautiful in my life, I wish she could apply my makeup everyday.
-Kristin
Amy was wonderful to work with! I had never gotten my makeup professionally done before, so I was rather nervous going in, But Amy's down-to-earth demeanor and personalized services were all I could ask for! She made me look natural and glamorous at the same time . My mom and bridesmaids that got their makeup done as well would agree! Plus the added bonus that since Amy is a woman of many talents Wedding photography as well, she knows how to make you look great both in person and for the camera.
-Ashley
Amy is down to earth, easy going, relaxed, and all around a complete joy to be around.! She arrived to my venue even before I did setting up her makeup in anticipation of my timeline. She did my makeup first and then my matron of Honor's makeup. Our makeup turned out phenomenal and lasted all day! It also photographed beautifully in the photos and was a relaxing and stress free experience. She is fantastic and will go above and beyond in coordinating, facilitating, and communicating. I cannot recommend her enough!

KATE
I very rarely wear makeup, but Amy was so professional and knew exactly how to make it look natural, (my only request) As someone who rarely wear makeup, I highly recommend the airbrush makeup. I could barely tell i was wearing it. It made my skin look photoshopped, and it didnt' move at all on our wedding day with a high of 95 degrees.
"The makeup was stunning- I literally have never felt so beautiful."
