LUXURY BRIDAL HAIR & MAKEUP ARTIST | Bordeaux & Destination Weddings
Two decades of haute couture artistry, from Los Angeles and New York to Monaco.
For wedding planners and Château teams orchestrating a destination celebration, every detail has to hold under pressure — timing, weather, a bride who's never sat in front of a camera before.
I bring the same discipline I gave H.S.H. Princess Charlene of Monaco to every bridal party I work with: calm execution, flawless timing, and a look that photographs as beautifully at golden hour as it does at midnight.
Based in Bordeaux and available across the South-West of France, Paris and worldwide.
Signature beauty across my favourite destinations
Wherever the celebration takes place, the same discretion, precision, and seamless coordination with your planning team.
Cap Ferret
From the pine-shaded villas of the peninsula to the private estates overlooking the Bassin d'Arcachon, Cap Ferret weddings call for a beauty look that holds through sea air, golden-hour light, and long celebrations under the stars. I work closely with local planners and venues to deliver a natural, luminous finish suited to this effortlessly chic corner of the Atlantic coast.
Saint-Émilion
The vineyards and château estates of Saint-Émilion set an unmistakably romantic, storied backdrop — and the beauty should rise to meet it. I create timeless, editorial-quality looks for brides celebrating amid the vines, working seamlessly alongside wedding planners to fit within a tightly choreographed day.
Hossegor & Capbreton
For destination weddings along this stretch of coastline, known for its refined beach-club atmosphere and surf-chic elegance, I offer a beauty approach that's polished yet completely at ease — built to last from the ceremony through an evening by the ocean.
International
Beyond the South-West of France, I travel for destination weddings worldwide, bringing the same standard of precision, discretion, and seamless coordination that wedding planners and production teams have relied on for over 15 years — from Provence and the French Riviera to Italy, the UK, and beyond.
I believe in artistry that celebrates the individual. Every look is a bespoke creation—designed to harmonize your personal style with the unique atmosphere of your celebration. From the sunlight of a Bordeaux vineyard to the candlelit halls of a chateau, I ensure you feel radiant, empowered, and entirely yourself.
From the initial private consultation to the quiet moments before the ceremony, I provide a refined and seamless experience. I honor your vision with artistry that is authentic, luminous, and timeless.
To ensure a flawless, red-carpet finish that lasts from the first look to the final dance, I work exclusively with a curated selection of world-class brands. My kit features the lightness and radiance of Dior, Makeup by Mario, Laura Mercier, NARS, and Charlotte Tilbury.
