Jacquelyn is not only exceptional at her craft, but more importantly she is THE person you want in your corner during the entire wedding process. I used her for both my bridal makeup, as well as for emotional support sessions. I couldn't recommend her more for both!

Makeup-wise, she is so intentional about focusing on how you FEEL, not just the end result of how you look. She makes sure to emphasize YOU throughout the entire process, reiterating that anything can be changed at any time. Jacquelyn is gentle, encouraging, and uplifting throughout the entire application process, and will be your number one hype woman throughout. On wedding day, she'll be there to teach you how to cry properly (a very important piece for my day), and she even helped out with odds and ends between my application and my moms to make the day go smoother. She (along with the makeup that she applied) made me feel so confident and glamorous, but still authentic. I never felt like I was in a costume, but rather that my natural beauty was enhanced. She also did my mom's makeup, and my mom was so pleased by everything Jacquelyn did, but even more so with who she is.

The emotional support sessions are something so unique to the wedding world, but so needed! We focused on my communication style throughout the wedding process, as well as how to navigate fears, worries, tough relationships, and new feelings that come with the territory of planning and experiencing a wedding. It was so nice to have someone to listen as an unbiased third party, as well as offer suggestions and tips on how to navigate big feelings, conversations, and stressors. There were feelings and worries that came up during the planning process that I could not have anticipated, and having someone as seasoned as Jacquelyn understand my feelings, validate them, and work through solutions with me made the day even more flawless. I was the calmest I'd been throughout the entire wedding planning process on my wedding day, and so much of that is thanks to her.

Jacquelyn is a bright light in the wedding world. She is intentional, authentic, energetic, kind, and caring. She highlights her celebrants in the most beautiful way, and supports you as a human being, not just as a client. I highly recommend Jacquelyn for both makeup and emotional support for your wedding day. You will not regret it.

Jacquelyn did makeup for myself, 4 bridesmaids, groomswoman, and my mom and she absolutely nailed it! She did a great job of personalizing each look for all 7 of us and made sure we were comfortable with each part of the process. Everyone looked absolutely gorgeous and I LOVED my makeup! Not only that, she is so fun to chat with and her energy is contagious. I can't recommend her enough!

Jacquelyn is the most amazing makeup artist I have ever had! I would HIGHLY recommend her to everyone to have her be part of your celebration. I used her for my wedding on August 20th, and she made me look and feel the most beautiful I have ever felt. My makeup looked AMAZING and I got soooo many compliments on it. Jacquelyn uses a really great technique to put on the makeup that makes you feel at ease and relaxed, especially on a day that can be as busy and potentially stressful as your wedding. She can also dial it up or down based on your personal preference. She made my mother and bridesmaids look amazing as well! One of the most amazing parts of working with Jacquelyn at First Looks LLC is that she is also a counselor, and for the bridal packages she provides a 30 minute session with you that I used the week of the wedding to help me relax and and mentally and emotionally prepare for the big day. I truly don't think I would have got through my wedding weekend with Jacquelyn, and I am forever grateful for her making me look and FEEL so amazing! THANK YOU!!!! She is truly a one-of-a-kind and you would be so lucky to have her as your makeup artist!
