I love my job because it allows all of my strengths and people skills to flourish while utilizing my passions for weddings and the beauty industry.

My favorite product to add on to the face are lashes! False lashes always add a beautiful, extra touch to the final look. You can also make them what you want...subtle or glamorous!

If I could travel anywhere I would go to Scotland! I’ve always wanted to travel there because of my Scottish heritage, and my favorite show “Outlander” films there! (I gotta find Jamie! Hehe!)

I love my job because I get to work with so many types of ladies from many different walks of life and backgrounds, and I get to enhance their beauty on such a special day!

My favorite make-up product is MAC Studio Fix Powder. It's a long-wearing powder that provides a smooth flawless matte finish.

If I could go anywhere in the world I would love to take my family on a safari to Africa! My husband had the opportunity to go on a safari after going on a mission trip and his stories and photographs were amazing!

I love my job because it allows me to use my creative side and create a beautiful work of art. It allows me to watch someone come alive and feel gorgeous. And it is an amazing feeling when you look forward to going to work and making someone smile.

My favorite makeup product to use is definitely ShapeTape by Tarte. It is a spectacular concealer and highlighter that really creates a beautiful highlighted face.

If I could go anywhere in the world, it would have to be Norway to see the beautiful scenery and also to see the Northern Lights, which would be a dream.

My favorite makeup product is Stila's all-day liquid eyeliner. It goes on effortlessly and lasts all day and night! I also LOVE the Laura Mercier setting powder- it keeps your makeup right in place!

If I could go anywhere in the world, I would travel to the Balearic Islands with my Husband. To see all of the beauty that is there and enjoy the sun!

Rianna Major

I love this job because it doesn't feel like a job! This is my passion, and I love being able to share it with others. Having the privilege of making someone feel beautiful and confident is an experience that will never get old!

My go-to makeup product would have to be the Clinique Almost Lipstick in the shade 'Black Honey'. It gives such a beautiful flush of color for any look!

If I could go anywhere in the world, I would pick Rome, Italy! Rome has so much beautiful history and would be the perfect destination for me and my family to explore

I love my job for many reasons! It is fun and creative and I get to make girls feel beautiful on their special day just by doing something I already loved to do.

My favorite makeup product is NYX Buttergloss in the shade Fortune Cookie. It is the perfect sheer, nude gloss that works perfectly with almost any look! I never leave the house without it!

If I could travel anywhere in the world I would go to Bora Bora with my family and boyfriend! It has been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember!

I love my job because I can be creative with each new person that I work with. I love seeing someone's face light up when they see their finished makeup look! Being able to connect with people while doing what I love is such a privilege. I wouldn't change it for the world!

My favorite makeup product is the Anastasia Brow Freeze! I love the look of a sleek, laminated brow, and this product locks your brows in all day long.

If I could travel anywhere, I would take a trip to Alaska! Even though I don't enjoy the cold, I feel like it's a one-in-a-lifetime experience to experience the views of Alaska. I love to cruise, so I would probably take an Alaskan cruise and watch for whales from the ship!

Getting your hair and makeup done is like therapy for both the client and the artist, its so amazing how good the whole process can make you feel both inside and out!

My favorite product is false lashes!I love lashes from Ardell and Tatti lashes. I love how it can really complete the look and bring everything together. I believe there is a perfect lash for everyone and it can enhance the whole look no matter how natural or glam you want to look.

If I could travel anywhere is would be Ireland, I have always wanted to explore the country and stay in the old castles and estates. As a Irish girl it would be so cool to explore my heritage and see how beautiful that part of the world is. Kissing the Blarney Stone is definitely on my bucket list!

Alyssa Zabawa

I love my job because it’s an opportunity to help people feel their absolute best on one of the most important days of their lives. There's something truly special about creating a look that makes someone feel confident, beautiful, and ready to step into such a meaningful moment. The personalization aspect is another rewarding part every bride has a unique vision, and I get to bring that vision to life, whether it's a timeless look or something more modern and bold.

Eyebrow gel is my favorite makeup product because it’s such an easy way to shape and define the brows while keeping them in place all day. It gives brows a fuller, more polished look without feeling heavy. It’s one of those products that delivers both function and finesse in one simple step!

If I could travel to any location I would travel to Italy specifically the Amalfi Coast. The breathtaking cliffs, charming villages, and turquoise waters are all so picturesque, and the food and culture are just as incredible. I would take my best friend who appreciates the beauty of travel and who is up for exploring and trying new foods.
