Hi, I'm Hanna
happy, easy going, honest and hard working. I love fashion, interiors, art and the theatre ...and coffee. I really like coffee!
Why weddings?
Understanding the enormous impact a well executed makeover plays in ‘pulling together’ a woman’s entire look, I wanted to share my media skills and experience with ‘real women’ for the important occasions in life.
Working for over 30 years with TV presenters, actors and models I completely understand the need for a bride to be professionally made up, she will be photographed more on this day than any other in her life, so the make up must ‘read’ well both on film and to the naked eye, in addition to lasting the day through.
It’s never just about the finished look – it’s also about how you feel throughout the experience. On the morning of your wedding, feeling relaxed, reassured, and in safe hands makes all the difference. I work calmly, confidently, and efficiently to make sure everything comes together seamlessly, on time, and in a fun, enjoyable atmosphere. Clients often comment on my calm energy, and I genuinely love being part of those special pre-wedding moments hearing all the excitement, the stories, and soaking up the happiness every single time.
If you feel my style aligns with your vision for your wedding or event, I’d love to hear from you….
Career
My passion for hair began as a stylist, I had five fun years in the salon before qualifying as a wig maker and following my love of musical theatre into West End productions. I trained under some of the industry’s best make up artists and that kickstarted the most fascinating journey as a media hair and make up artist. I’ve had the pleasure of working with actors, celebrities and models on a variety of exciting projects from editorial and advertising shoots to music, theatre, film & television – from London fashion week to stunning film locations (see my CV here)
These days you can find me in beautiful wedding venues, backstage in TV make up rooms, or unleashing my creativity in my home art studio!
It’s a wild ride and I love every bit of it!
Family
When my children came along in the early 2000s, I shifted away from the long, demanding hours of TV and film work and discovered how rewarding it was to work closer to home. That naturally led me into the bridal world, where I found a real passion for helping brides feel confident, beautiful, and completely themselves on such an important day.
Now that my girls are grown up, I’ve found a balance I truly love — continuing to freelance across TV, photoshoots, and media content, while still being part of the wedding industry that brings me so much joy. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me immersed in an abstract painting project, sipping coffee, or out walking our pugs in the beautiful Surrey countryside.
