Hi, my name is Evie and I'm a vegan and cruelty-free wedding hair and makeup artist. I specialise in natural, beautiful, relaxed bridal hair and makeup styles. My entire hair and makeup kit is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. I'm currently living in the particularly beautiful city of Bristol, directly opposite Cabot Circus in the city centre. I have lived in Bristol for the majority of my life, with the occasional stint in Los Angeles (my dream home).
I am a keen musician; I love to play guitar. I'm currently teaching myself to play the drums and enjoy making beautiful covers of Eminem songs. Before I became a wedding hair and makeup artist, I was a wedding singer. As a side hobby, I have also been having French and Spanish lessons for the past 5 years. With a view to being multilingual in the near future (and it is always helpful with destination weddings). I have an unhealthy obsession with astrophysics, immunology and my new interest - rewilding (it goes without saying that they have nothing in common with one another). I love anything to do with the universe. Yes, I'm aware this potentially makes me the geekiest makeup artist on the planet.
I am vegan and proud that I offer a completely cruelty-free experience. It's something that I've had a few people tell me I should put on here. Especially as people are looking to change to more cruelty-free products - yay! I've been vegan for 8 years and am pretty happy with it. I work alongside Viva! The vegan charity, creating hair and makeup for their podcasts. I would love to work with more cruelty-free and vegan companies in the future.
I have been a professional bridal hair and makeup artist in Bristol, Bath, Wales and London for almost 16 years. I still get the same excitement from meeting a bride as I did when I first started out. Meeting every new bride is exciting to me. From hearing every single beautiful and unique story of the proposal to the wedding planning and how they first met. I feel so lucky that over the past 10 years, brides and bridal parties have trusted me as their wedding hair and makeup artist on their wedding day. I value every one of my brides and am so humbled when I am chosen to help brides and their bridal parties get ready for their wedding day.
Creating your bridal look is so important to me and as you can see from my portfolio every bride is individual and their styles unique. Having worked in commercials, I love bringing my skillset from fashion into my wedding portfolio to create bridal looks that are on-trend and unique to each person.
I have a strong love for travel (who doesn't?). I have been lucky enough to have destination weddings and commercials in Iceland, France, Cyprus, Ireland, Geneva, Scotland, California, Spain, Italy and Costa Rica. One of my favourite things is learning about different cultures and rituals. I am always happy to cater for destination weddings and would one day love to create beautiful hair and makeup styles for destination weddings in Greece, Austria, Canada and Kenya. I am lucky enough to have worked in some of the most beautiful venues in the UK, from mountaintops in The Isle Of Skye to stunning estates in Devon, Cornwall, Wales, Cheltenham and of course Bristol, to name a few.
One of my favourite things about being a bridal hair and makeup artist is having the freedom to be creative. I adore researching new ideas and trends to create something unique that tells a story. Through my years working in the fashion industry, I have developed a kit that is personal to me. Full of my favourite products. I have been vegan for 7 years and have a fully vegan hair and makeup kit.
My fashion and commercial work has taken me all over the world working for brands such as John Lewis, Disney, Coca - Cola, Converse and Adidas to name a few.
I really love meeting each and every one of you, please check out my reviews or have a little hunt for me on Google.
I am known for my dedication, my effortless hair and makeup style and my vibrant personality. Please get in touch to discuss your wedding or project and please check out my behind-the-scenes over on my Instagram.
Evie x
