Where do I even begin!? I have had the opportunity of working closely with Kate within the wedding industry, for a couple years now. I have always wanted to get to know this goofy, fun, energetic, amazingly kind soul that is Kate. When I got engaged, she was the first vendor I booked because I knew I needed her and her energy as a part of my getting ready room! What I didn't know is the relationship that would blossom from this! I am so lucky to have such a beautiful soul in my life! Not only is she just the best, she is EXTREMELY talented! She KNOWS what she is doing!!! I have never and I mean never felt more beautiful in my entire life and not just me. My entire bridal party felt their very best!! She and Karina worked SO fast but also paid attention to every little detail. Provided all of us with ease and comfort. My mom, who NEVER likes when someone else does her makeup, couldn't stop looking at her self!!! I mean wow, she just knew how to enhance our beauty perfectly. Not to mention, she lights up every room she walks into!!! Just the best vibes all morning long! I love you so much, Kate!!! Truly a spectacular human and even more spectacular at her craft!!! Thank you for literally everything.

Kate is a talented artist and a fantastic person to have in your corner for special events. She did makeup for me and my bridal party on my wedding day this summer. Reasons I loved working with Kate: - If you aren't super experienced with makeup (like me), it can be tough to explain exactly why you like a makeup look based on inspo photos or social media. Kate listened closely and collaborated with me to translate my inspiration photos into the perfect wedding day look for me (breaking down colors, types of products, etc). - Kate's 'skin first' approach ensures that your makeup lasts longer and looks flawless. With Kate's advice and product recommendations, I transformed my dry skin just in time for the wedding. - Kate has deep experience working across many different makeup styles and skin types. My bridal party included women of various ages (from early 20s to 60s), skin types, and makeup preferences (full glam, natural, etc). Everyone felt absolutely beautiful, with a look customized just for them. I could go on, but Kate is lovely human who is passionate about her craft. I highly recommend working with her on special event makeup...and can't wait until the next time I get to 🙂

Kate did my makeup for my photo shoot and she was so personable! Great upbeat attitude and gave me what I was asking for. Great makeup artist and a wonderful person. Thank you Kate!

- Destinee C

Highly recommend Kate for all your bridal needs! I don't wear a ton of make up and didn’t plan on getting an artist and changed my mind last minute. I went into the whole thing very nervous and Kate was AMAZING all the way through. She listened to me with my concerns about not looking myself and made sure I felt confident and beautiful.

Her silly tricks of taking a picture of yourself post trial and 'sitting on it' were perfect as I went from 'omg this is too much' to.. 'holy moly I look GOOD' .

Even now, I have incorporated LIPSTICK into my makeup routine and am buying some blushes/colors we used for my wedding day.

If you're on the fence about it, hire Kate. She listens. She enhances, keeps it natural if you want and makes you feel like a star

-Amanda H

Kate is amazing! I have hired her for a boudoir shoot and my maternity photos. Two totally different looks and she nailed it each time. She makes you look like the best version of yourself! She is also just so easy to work with and is such a sweet person to be around! I HIGHLY recommend Kate!

- Hannah H

Kate is so fantastic. She really cares about you, the client. I don’t wear a lot of makeup but needed something cool for a shoot and Kate knocked it out of the park. She just started airbrushing and did a fantastic job. I didn’t feel like I was wearing makeup and it lasted for the whole day. She’s so funny, too :)

-Danielle F

Kate is amazing! I went to my appointment not knowing what I wanted and she helped me come up with the perfect look. She used airbrush foundation on me and it turned out so great! It lasted all day and it felt like I wasn’t wearing any makeup. She made the appointment so fun!

-Lauren M

Kate is not only an incredible artist, she is an incredible person! The moment I first met her she made me feel relaxed and happy with her infectious glow that surrounds her. She listened to my requests for the look I wanted on my wedding day and truly delivered! She made me feel so beautiful. I am someone who does not usually wear make up so I was nervous about looking “overdone” and she did a perfect job with the natural bride look I was hoping for. Search no further, trust me she is your girl!

-Brynn R

Kate did a wonderful job on my wedding makeup. I almost never do my own makeup so I was worried about what to do for my wedding. Kate did a great job talking through the options in the consultant appointment and we landed on a looked that I absolutely loved for my wedding day. Highly recommend.

-Hanna L

KATE IS INCREDIBLE. She kills it every single time and I cannot recommend her enough. She has done my makeup personally and I also work with her on a regular basis at Babe City Studio. She listens to your needs and executes flawlessly. BOOK HER NOW

-Brianna B

We invited Kate to come teach us how to apply makeup for a little birthday get together. She spent a lot of time talking us through skin care and then showing us how to apply based on our different face shapes and coloring and how to use both what products we already had and how she would use other products to improve the results. She was sweet and fun to have, and also very knowledgeable and a great teacher. So glad she could join us!

-Laurel W

-Anita C

Kate is honestly one of the nicest, funniest and easiest people to get along. Her work is stunning and she makes you feel at home in her chair. She’s always so gracious about making sure you’re touched up and comfortable in what you’re wearing. I send my photography clients to her and always call her for styled shoots! I’m lucky to have a friend like her in the industry!

-Kristin W

Kate has designed the makeup for a few of our shows at Trinity Lutheran School, like Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland and Beauty and the Beast.  She is not only creative and professional, but an absolute joy to work with!  She also mentored several of our HS students and taught them how to be makeup artists as well.  She is coming back to design the makeup for our HS production of Beauty and the Beast this spring, and I can't be more excited.  I can't recommend her enough!!

-Jon V

Kate is amazing artist and has so much fun doing what she loves...making women of all ages see their true beauty...bringing out their inner beauty! She made my teen feel more beautiful than ever for her first high school dance, all the while teaching her about how to not only apply makeup correctly but care for her skin! HIGHLY recommend!!

-Jessica H

Kate did both my wedding & maternity shoot makeup. She is phenomenal! And so much fun to be around. I highly recommend her for any makeup needs!!

I've been going to Kate since 2011 for all of my event makeup. She can do subtle and natural, and bold and beautiful! I absolutely love her work and highly recommend her.

-Christina R

Kate is amazing! She did mine and my bridesmaids makeup for my wedding this July. The makeup looked amazing for each of us! It lasted all day, and she taught and explained as she went. Her personality is also amazing! She made it fun and relaxing, I would absolutely recommended her to anyone!

-Alex M

Kate is amazing! My experience with Kate has been great. She is attentive to every detail, extremely professional, my makeup lasted all day and she has such a kind, friendly and bubbly personality that makes the whole experience so enjoyable. She can do it all I swear. If you find yourself needing professional make up done when you’re in Central Oregon, definitely reach out to her.

Kate is enthusiastic and just a delight! She has a wealth of skincare and makeup knowledge. I feel she would bend over backwards to make me feel beautiful!

-Tammy H

Kate is an amazing artist! She not only listens to your wants and needs, but she always gives great advice and is super helpful. Would HIGHLY recommend her!

-Gracie G

Kate did an incredible job on my makeup for a boudoir shoot! She is such a talented artist and I wished that I had known of her and her work prior to booking my wedding makeup with another local artist. I would have booked her in a heartbeat. She's such a genuine soul too! Very talented and very personable.

-Maykala O

I don't wear a lot of makeup, but wanted some tips and product recommendations for the times I want to, so asked Kate for help. Kate found a balance to keep my natural look and a few little things I could do that weren't a huge investment in money, time, or required advanced skills. She came to our house for a fun and casual session. My Mom and I loved having Kate teach us without making us feel like we were asking any silly questions with her positive and warm personality. We highly recommend her!

-Jennifer S

Kate did my makeup for my 10-year anniversary photos and I couldn't have been happier with the whole experience. For someone who doesn't ever get my makeup done professionally, she made me feel like a queen and the makeup turned out perfectly for my photos. I felt truly beautiful and am thankful we got to work together! As a wedding planner, I will definitely be recommending her to my brides. Thanks Kate!!

-Becky H

Kate was so awesome! She is hilarious, super sweet and amazing. I felt like a queen on my wedding day! She made me feel like a million bucks. I highly recommend her and would use her again for a special event.

-Kelli L

Kate was absolutely amazing!! She's sweet and fun and my bridesmaids and I had the best time! Not to mention our makeup was flawless! I couldn't have picked anyone better to do my makeup for my wedding. Thank you, Kate!

-Katie G

Kate did my makeup for both my engagement and boudoir sessions. She is amazing at what she does! She asks questions and listens and tries to have a real understanding of the look you are going for. I found that she was also knowledgeable about applying makeup that will photograph well for the specific shot.

Most importantly for me however, is that Kate is sweet, funny and 100% genuine. Kate whole heartedly cares about her clients and her work.

Thank you Kate!
