About Me

Hi, I'm Niamh — Your Bridal Makeup Artist

Based in Cork, with 20 years of experience and a genuine love for wedding mornings.

20 Years of Artistry, A Decade Devoted to Brides

I've spent the last 20 years working as a professional makeup artist, including time with two of the biggest names in the industry — Bobbi Brown and MAC. That experience taught me precision, technique, and how to make makeup look effortless on camera and in person.

For the last ten years, I've focused entirely on bridal makeup. There's something special about being part of someone's wedding morning — the nerves, the excitement, the laughter with the bridal party — and I love that my job lets me be part of it.

My Approach

Your Look, Your Way

Every bride is different, and so is every wedding. Whether you're picturing something timeless and natural, or polished and editorial, I'll work with you to create a look that feels authentically you — not a copy of someone else's wedding.

I take the time to really listen during your trial, so that on the morning itself, everything is calm, familiar, and exactly as planned. No surprises — just you, looking and feeling your best.

I travel throughout Cork, Munster, and the rest of Ireland for wedding mornings, and I'm happy to fit around your getting-ready schedule, wherever that may be.
