Makeup Artists

For her 21st birthday, Jill was given a private lesson with the renowned make up artist, Syd Simons. From that day forward, she realized the power, beauty and art of make up. Thereafter, Jill spent every available moment, experimenting and learning the subtle art of make up. For each event and special occasion, friends and family would come to her for that special look. However, it did not occur to Jill to become a professional make up artist.

However, she quickly realized that she was driven to become a professional make up artist. Jill then established a successful freelance practice, specializing in print photography. She has thereby utilized her experience in both business and art, hopefully serving as a role model for her daughters, all of whom are currently pursuing careers in the arts, thereby wasting no time in following their passions!

The discerning eye of a skilled artist is required to create suitable make up styles for the particular face as well as the occasion. The application may range from neutral to vivid to glamorous.

Jill treats each client as a VIP regardless of age or the nature of the event. Her clients will attest to her courtesy, tact, as well as her talent.
