Booked Mel last minute for a wedding I was attending and I was absolutely in love with our final look. Got compliments from everyone and it was great to dust off my bridge troll look for a chance to get dolled up because let's face it - there haven't been much to dress up for since the panini, lol. The studio could not be closer to me, which is a godsend because now I can book future events without worrying about drive time. The natural lighting in there is also great because you can see what you look like under both natural and indoor lighting. She nailed the look I was going for and blew my expectations ten-fold. I would absolutely use her again and would recommend. read more

First of all, I LOVEEEEE MEL! She is soo talented and makes you feel and look like a million bucks. Aside from her talent, she is the sweetest person ever!

Her studio is so cozy, but she also has the option to travel to you. She provides amazing service and I was beyond pleased with the results. If you ever need to go to anybody for glam, call Mel. You will not be disappointed. She truly cares for all her clients and only wants to see us all feel beautiful! Mel if you're reading this, I can't wait to see you again for another glam session LOL. read more
