See what my clients have to say about their experience with me!!!
Aaron did an awesome job on my make up for my wedding. My hairstylist was the one who told me about Aaron and I am so happy she did. I had one trial with Aaron to make sure we got it right, Im not use to wearing a lot of make-up but he made sure what he did I liked and was comfortable with. I really liked that Aaron listened to what I wanted, helped me try new things, and achieved the best possible result for my wedding day. My main concern was that by the end of the day my makeup would be all over my face (my wedding was during July temp 110) it held the WHOLE day even during the reception where I was sweating from dancing so much! I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for their makeup to be done!

Aaron did my makeup for my June 2012 wedding. It turned out GREAT and stayed perfect throughout the entire night (even when the air conditioning broke at our reception venue!) I would recommend him to anyone looking to get dolled up for any outing or event :)

Aaron did my makeup for a photo-shoot and he did a phenomenal job! I got the airbrushing done and it was heavenly! I wish I could look that good every day! On top of that, he was so much fun to work with and I would definitely recommend hiring him! Can't wait to work with you again, Aaron! xoxo

I recently hosted a makeup party for friends with drinks and appetizers. Aaron was our makeup artiste extraordinaire for the fun filled evening! He gave each of us a new look to try out and the best part was nothing to buy!
Just F-U-N! And he even came with goodie bags. We all loved it!

Aaron did my makeup for my wedding in May and did my bridesmaids makeup as well. We all looked natural and flawless the entire day and night! I knew I wouldn't have to worry about my makeup and that was such a blessing! It left me to just enjoy my wedding without worrying about doing touch ups! Everyone complimented the way my makeup brought out my beauty and looked like me. They commented on how gorgeous I looked and how the makeup accented my best features! I would recommend Aaron to any bride and bridal party! Especially the airbrush because it was so light that I couldn't tell I was even wearing it!!!! Thanks again for making me look fabulous Aaron!!!
-Melissa A (May 2013)

Aaron did my makeup for my wedding day and I absolutely loved it! I don't tend to wear makeup usually, so after my first trial, I decided I wanted to tone it down a bit and not go off a picture of what I liked and chose to go more natural. Aaron helped me reach the look I wanted by doing a second trial with me which he did not have to do! When the wedding day approached, Aaron was on time, friendly to everyone and made sure I looked exactly how I wanted. I recommend his services to anyone :)

Aaron was my makeup artist for my wedding day at Navy Pier downtown. First off, not only is he very professional, but he has a calming presence, he takes his time with his work, and most importantly, he LISTENS to his brides' requests and is flexible. He came to a trial at my home and tried different styles out and was easy going with changes I requested. He even gives a little touch up kit to the bride for the wedding day. I am happy with his work and feel like I have not only found a makeup artist, but a new friend in Aaron :)

I had my makeup done by Aaron for my daughter's wedding. I have never had my makeup done by a makeup artist before. I must say that I love the sun and I have wrinkles and was worried about how they would look with makeup on them , I normally only wear powder and call it a day. Well now I don't know what magic this young man had in that bag or with those brushes but he made me look so refreshed and a little younger !!!! Everyone said I looked amazing and I must admit I thought and felt it too . I want every mother of the bride to feel as beautiful and happy as I was on her special day ! He also did my daughter's makeup and the bride maids and everyone was beautiful.
-Anna T. (November 2014)

I was very happy with Aaron and his makeup services. From the wedding trial to the wedding day Aaron was very professional, friendly, and accommodating. My makeup stayed on all night, but he also gives you a touch up kit which is nice to have. I would highly recommend Aaron to future brides!
-Roxana H. (December 2014)

Aaron did my makeup for my sisters wedding in December- LOVED IT. I'm very picky with other people doing my makeup, and Aaron did an excellent job. I'd recommend him to every bride! I'm not engaged yet, but I already have my makeup booked with Aaron in the future!
-Karina H. (December 2014)

Thank you so much Aaron for making my graduation banquet extra special and for giving me such incredible treatment! It was my first experience with a makeup artist, and I was highly impressed with your attention to detail. It was obvious you love what you do. I appreciated you educating me about your craft along the way - it was fascinating seeing you work and adjust. Anyone would be so lucky to encounter you for their special event. Even under a time crunch the results were flawless and fit my personality perfectly. Thank you for doing an incredible job and for being a wonderful friend!

What a PLEASURE to work with! Aaron hit the nail on the head, and EXCEEDED expectations! His airbrushed foundation gave an incredible, flawless finish, and perfect palate to create great highlight to the face. He didn't change the face of the bride, but worked with it, creating a flawless, and natural look, highlighting the eyes and lips. He was prompt, professional and prepared, and felt like an old friend catching up! I can not wait to work with him again and would recommend him to my dearest of friends!

We met Aaron a few weeks ago while my daughter modeled for a bridal shoot and Aaron was the makeup artist! I asked him if we could hire him to do makeup for my daughters prom. I loved his work from the shoot as he really did a beautiful job!!! Prom was yesterday and WOW ... Lauren's makeup turned out beautiful! I would recommend Aaron to all my friends and acquaintances. Rates are reasonable and well worth it. Not only is Aaron a great makeup artist but I consider him a friend ... he has the best personality!!!!

-Erin P. (July 2015)

I am a relatively self concious person. I always hate looking at photos of myself because I can always find some flaw in my looks.
Aaron did my makeup on my wedding day and I couldn't have been happier! While looking at the photographer's pictures after the event, I can definitely say that I looked fabulous! I honestly think I liked my makeup job more than I liked my dress.
If you wanna feel absolutely gorgeous for your special event, give Aaron a call. You won't regret it!
-Shawna B. (July 2015)

Aaron did my makeup, my 80 year old mother and some bridesmaids for my wedding. I was so happy with my look, when I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, It WAS SO AMAZING; I began to tear up! Aaron took my everyday look and transformed my face into a stunning, beautiful bride! I cried through the ceremony and my face was still FLAWLESS! His professionalism and talent left me in awe of his work! He did an exceptional job with my mother. She looked natural and she was so thrilled because she felt beautiful!!!
Thank you for your flexibility, and professionalism! Thank you for being a special part of my day!
Oh, and the facial previous to my big day made all the difference! I will be back for more facials! It's worth the hour drive!

Aaron is fantastic and his work is incredible. He was referred to me by a friend and we connected right away. Aaron knew I had a big wedding party and a lot of girls to put makeup on.

Aaron was absolutely professional, caring, and his service skills were the best. He cared about me, what colors would complement me, and highlighted certain facial features that enhanced my look. He also airbrushed my face, which took my look to another level. I cried at my son's wedding and my makeup still remained in tact with no change. I received many compliments on my makeup and was excited to share. I would highly recommend him for any event where you need your makeup done.

Aaron is amazing! I didn't know what colors to choose for my eyes. I showed him the purse, shoes, and accessories I was going to wear with my navy blue dress; he already knew what colors would compliment my dress and skin tone. The air brush, concealer, blush, and bronzer covered up my acne, scars, and redness. In addition it also gave me some color in my cheeks and my skin a little glow. My face looked radiant and flawless! Highly recommend Aaron to anyone!
Tugba A. (August 2016)
Mundelein, IL

I don't think 5 stars is enough! Aaron was nothing less than amazing. My trial went beautifully and he came to me so I was comfortable in my house! The day of the wedding he was right on time and was totally open to minor changes I wanted on my wedding day! Oh, and his makeup is totally beautiful!!!! If he needs to bring an assistant, she is amazing too! One of my bridesmaids decided to get her makeup done once she saw everyone else's. Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you Aaron for helping me feel beautiful on my wedding day!!

Aaron was more than great, he was amazing! He was a trooper on my wedding day, even with the time crunch he took his time and made my bridesmaids and I look beautiful for the big day!

He did everyone who was involved in my wedding and they all looked amazing and we finished on time. I felt completely at ease having my face in Aaron's hands. I have recommended him several times and I will continue to do so! Once again he did amazing job! I felt incredibly beautiful that day and it stayed all day and night. Not even an eyelash came loose!

I visited the Avalon Day Spa for the first time today, and I will definitely be back. First and foremost I was impressed to learn they are open on Sundays. It works great with my hectic schedule.
Furthermore, I felt very relaxed and well taken care of with Aaron as my esthetician. He was kind, polite, and knowledgeable about the facial options and Aveda products. I look forward to making another appointment with Aaron soon!
Michelle W (February 2017)

Aaron was recommended to me by my hairdresser. We had to change the original date of the trial but there were no issues working that out. I had not met Aaron before the trial but fell in love with his personality. He is easy to talk to and really knows what he is doing. The trial was fun I felt comfortable giving him feedback. He created a flawless and timeless look for me. Aaron was on time and ready to go at our hotel room on the day of our wedding. I had wanted a minor change from my preview and he was totally accommodating. I had my make-up done along with my three bridesmaids they were very happy and confident with the service Aaron provided. He worked cohesively with my hairdressers, he is great team player, and had a positive calm energy (just what you need on your wedding day). I was very emotional at my wedding and my makeup looked flawless throughout the night. I cannot recommend Aaron enough, he is so talented and you can tell he loves what he does. If you are thinking of booking Aaron, act quickly before he gets booked! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any specific questions about his services. Thank you again Aaron!

Aaron was recommended to me from my sister who had her makeup done by him, and she raved about how great his makeup was and stayed on ALL night, which is unlike any other makeup artist she has seen. He was so easy to contact and always returned back to me right away. We did our makeup trial and I absolutel loved him and clicked with him right away. He arrived on time the morning of my wedding and brought everyting he needed, including chair and lighting. My bridal party's makeup looked stunning, but my makeup was a dream! Not only did my makeup look stunning, but it looked breathtaking in photos as well. I didn't have any flashback, no running of mascara, and it didn't move all night! He even supplied me with touchup lipstick, powder, and a few other goodies. My makeup was unreal and I felt like a bride! I would recommend Aaron in a heartbeat!
Ali H. (November 2017)

My hairstylist recommended Aaron to me for my wedding makeup, and I am so happy that I found him!!! Working with Aaron was such a great experience. He made my bridesmaids, my mom, and myself look great on wedding day! Aaron was also super flexible and came to our hotel room to do makeup. Even with ten people crammed into our room, Aaron was able to make our makeup look perfect. Also- we got married outside on one of the hottest day this year, and with temps close to 95 degrees, I was so worried about my makeup coming off. It didn’t! Even at the end of the night, it still looked great. Thank you Aaron for doing such an amazing job! I cannot thank you enough for helping to make our day so perfect!
Laura C (July 2018)
Harvard, IL
Aaron did the makeup for myself (bride), my mother and my fiancé for our wedding. I admit that I have no idea what I am doing with makeup, I am terrible. Aaron performed a miracle. He figured out the right colors, tones, touchups, EVERYTHING on me. He made me look flawless (the pictures are incredible). He kept my fiancé looking masculine by added the right touchups and highlights. My mother looked wonderful. Aaron can work on all types of skin and with all types of people, smoothly and professionally.
Not only did he make us look fantastic but he also set an upbeat and relaxed tone. The wedding day is crazy, right? Not with Aaron around. He makes you feel calm and like nothing could go wrong on your wedding day. You are the best. Thank you, Aaron!
Genevieve G. (July 2018)

Aaron is amazing! He did my makeup for my wedding, my bridesmaids, and my mom. When I looked in the mirror after my wedding makeup was finished, I was so impressed!! I felt like a princess and it was so natural and felt like I wasn’t wearing anything. I had a trial before the big day which was amazing as well. It was great to decide what I liked and Aaron took notes for what he did to ensure my makeup would be everything I wanted for my big day.

I had my first facial with Aaron and it was excellent! I felt very comfortable during the whole procedure and he explained everything to me because I like to know what's going on. My skin looks and feels great and I can't wait to see him again. He also shaped my eyebrows which I love as well! Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed Aaron’s facial. I have never had a facial before and I’m hooked. I can’t wait to come back and do it again! The experience was really relaxing and he taught me good tips and tricks to take care of my skin. I recommend Aaron’s facial if you want to have glowing skin and feel great. He also waxed my eyebrows(also new experience) and I love them!

This was one of my first times getting a facial. Aaron is an amazing person, and explained what was going on my face through the whole process. I don’t think I’ve ever been so relaxed before. My skin feels and looks great. I’m already looking at my schedule to see when I can get another one! Thank you Aaron!

I just got my very first facial with Aaron and I'm hooked! He creates such a relaxing environment and did an incredible job. My skin has never felt softer or more hydrated!

Aaron, first of all, is just a FUN HUMAN. He has great energy to be around. Second, extremely talented. He was recommended to me for bridal makeup. I was not so sure at first (about ANYONE doing my makeup.)
The start of my experience with him was great from the first step.
I came in for my preview session right from work; which means with a face full of makeup. He is so detailed that even removing my old makeup before applying the bridal look was basically A MINI FACIAL! So relaxing.
He put me at ease right away. Once we started makeup, conversation easily flowed, atmosphere was great and music was fab.
My biggest concern was my skin. I am 41, and sun damage is starting to show itself (wrinkles. 😳) He made my skin look amazing.
I am an extremely particular person when it comes to the details, and he rocked it.
All around, he knocked the experience out of the park.
On my wedding day he was prompt, professional but FUN!!! I received so many compliments on how wonderful my makeup looked. He definitely helped make me feel BEAUTIFUL on my wedding day.
Heidi S. (May 2019)

I would recommend Aaron to anyone. I can feel a difference in my skin after only 1 session!! He recommended a light chemical peel and microdermabrasion. He is very talented in both skincare and makeup. I look forward to my next appt with him!! I should be looking like I'm in my 20s in no time!!! Thanks Aaron!!

Aaron did an awesome job on my make up for my wedding. My hairstylist was the one who told me about Aaron and I am so happy she did. I had one trial with Aaron to make sure we got it right, Im not use to wearing a lot of make-up but he made sure what he did I liked and was comfortable with. I really liked that Aaron listened to what I wanted, helped me try new things, and achieved the best possible result for my wedding day. My main concern was that by the end of the day my makeup would be all over my face (my wedding was during July temp 110) it held the WHOLE day even during the reception where I was sweating from dancing so much! I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for their makeup to be done!
-Becki H. (July 2012)
Cary, IL
Aaron did my makeup for my June 2012 wedding. It turned out GREAT and stayed perfect throughout the entire night (even when the air conditioning broke at our reception venue!) I would recommend him to anyone looking to get dolled up for any outing or event :)
-Megan J. (June 2012)
Burbank, CA
Aaron did my makeup for a photo-shoot and he did a phenomenal job! I got the airbrushing done and it was heavenly! I wish I could look that good every day! On top of that, he was so much fun to work with and I would definitely recommend hiring him! Can't wait to work with you again, Aaron! xoxo

I recently hosted a makeup party for friends with drinks and appetizers. Aaron was our makeup artiste extraordinaire for the fun filled evening! He gave each of us a new look to try out and the best part was nothing to buy!
Just F-U-N! And he even came with goodie bags. We all loved it!
-Natalie K. (December 2012)
Crystal Lake, IL
Aaron did my makeup for my wedding in May and did my bridesmaids makeup as well. We all looked natural and flawless the entire day and night! I knew I wouldn't have to worry about my makeup and that was such a blessing! It left me to just enjoy my wedding without worrying about doing touch ups! Everyone complimented the way my makeup brought out my beauty and looked like me. They commented on how gorgeous I looked and how the makeup accented my best features! I would recommend Aaron to any bride and bridal party! Especially the airbrush because it was so light that I couldn't tell I was even wearing it!!!! Thanks again for making me look fabulous Aaron!!!
-Melissa A (May 2013)
Milwaukee, WI
Aaron did my makeup for my wedding day and I absolutely loved it! I don't tend to wear makeup usually, so after my first trial, I decided I wanted to tone it down a bit and not go off a picture of what I liked and chose to go more natural. Aaron helped me reach the look I wanted by doing a second trial with me which he did not have to do! When the wedding day approached, Aaron was on time, friendly to everyone and made sure I looked exactly how I wanted. I recommend his services to anyone :)
-Nicole B. (June 2013)

We recently hired Aaron to do make-up for a Katie Hibben Band photo shoot. We were very happy with his work and impressed that he could adapt well to our individual styles.

Aaron is a true artist. I have had aaron do my make up on several occasions and he always makes me look flawless. All the makeup he uses is high quality and stays on!

Aaron did my makeup for my wedding. Not only did he make me look and feel beautiful...

Totally made my day easier with him coming to my house! Overall he was amazing.
-Katie M. (October 2013)

Aaron did an amazing job on mine and my moms make up for my sisters wedding! I recommend the airbrush I was apprehensive about it but I'm so glad I chose airbrush!

He is also very easy to talk too and makes you feel comfortable!

Aaron was my makeup artist for my wedding day at Navy Pier downtown. First off, not only is he very professional, but he has a calming presence, he takes his time with his work, and most importantly, he LISTENS to his brides' requests and is flexible. He came to a trial at my home and tried different styles out and was easy going with changes I requested. He even gives a little touch up kit to the bride for the wedding day. I am happy with his work and feel like I have not only found a makeup artist, but a new friend in Aaron :)
-Kristen J. (September 2014)
Schaumburg, IL
I typically don't wear much makeup so when it came to choosing makeup for my wedding day Aaron made me feel very comfortable and knowledgeable about what he was applying and why. I felt & looked so beautiful because of his outstanding skills as a certified make-up artist, Thank you Aaron!
-Kelsiejane S. (September 2014)

I had my makeup done by Aaron for my daughter's wedding. I have never had my makeup done by a makeup artist before. I must say that I love the sun and I have wrinkles and was worried about how they would look with makeup on them , I normally only wear powder and call it a day. Well now I don't know what magic this young man had in that bag or with those brushes but he made me look so refreshed and a little younger !!!! Everyone said I looked amazing and I must admit I thought and felt it too . I want every mother of the bride to feel as beautiful and happy as I was on her special day ! He also did my daughter's makeup and the bride maids and everyone was beautiful.
-Anna T. (November 2014)
Vernon Hills, IL
I was very happy with Aaron and his makeup services. From the wedding trial to the wedding day Aaron was very professional, friendly, and accommodating. My makeup stayed on all night, but he also gives you a touch up kit which is nice to have. I would highly recommend Aaron to future brides!
-Roxana H. (December 2014)

Aaron did my makeup for my sisters wedding in December- LOVED IT. I'm very picky with other people doing my makeup, and Aaron did an excellent job. I'd recommend him to every bride! I'm not engaged yet, but I already have my makeup booked with Aaron in the future!
-Karina H. (December 2014)

Thank you so much Aaron for making my graduation banquet extra special and for giving me such incredible treatment! It was my first experience with a makeup artist, and I was highly impressed with your attention to detail. It was obvious you love what you do. I appreciated you educating me about your craft along the way - it was fascinating seeing you work and adjust. Anyone would be so lucky to encounter you for their special event. Even under a time crunch the results were flawless and fit my personality perfectly. Thank you for doing an incredible job and for being a wonderful friend!
-Christi F. (February 2015)

What a PLEASURE to work with! Aaron hit the nail on the head, and EXCEEDED expectations! His airbrushed foundation gave an incredible, flawless finish, and perfect palate to create great highlight to the face. He didn't change the face of the bride, but worked with it, creating a flawless, and natural look, highlighting the eyes and lips. He was prompt, professional and prepared, and felt like an old friend catching up! I can not wait to work with him again and would recommend him to my dearest of friends!
-Julie G. (March 2015)

We met Aaron a few weeks ago while my daughter modeled for a bridal shoot and Aaron was the makeup artist! I asked him if we could hire him to do makeup for my daughters prom. I loved his work from the shoot as he really did a beautiful job!!! Prom was yesterday and WOW ... Lauren's makeup turned out beautiful! I would recommend Aaron to all my friends and acquaintances. Rates are reasonable and well worth it. Not only is Aaron a great makeup artist but I consider him a friend ... he has the best personality!!!!

Aaron is the absolute best!! I would recommend him to anyone who wants not only to look amazing on their wedding day, but also feel amazing. Not only is he the absolute best with make-up, but he is funny, kind, and was such a great energy and comfort on a stressful busy day. He has high quality products and knew just what to use to make me look and feel my best. Obviously the best makeup artist around, and an obvious choice for any bride!! He is so very talented and skilled!!

-Erin P. (July 2015)

I am a relatively self concious person. I always hate looking at photos of myself because I can always find some flaw in my looks.
Aaron did my makeup on my wedding day and I couldn't have been happier! While looking at the photographer's pictures after the event, I can definitely say that I looked fabulous! I honestly think I liked my makeup job more than I liked my dress.
If you wanna feel absolutely gorgeous for your special event, give Aaron a call. You won't regret it!
-Shawna B. (July 2015)
Schaumburg, IL
Aaron did my makeup, my 80 year old mother and some bridesmaids for my wedding. I was so happy with my look, when I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror, It WAS SO AMAZING; I began to tear up! Aaron took my everyday look and transformed my face into a stunning, beautiful bride! I cried through the ceremony and my face was still FLAWLESS! His professionalism and talent left me in awe of his work! He did an exceptional job with my mother. She looked natural and she was so thrilled because she felt beautiful!!!
Thank you for your flexibility, and professionalism! Thank you for being a special part of my day!
Oh, and the facial previous to my big day made all the difference! I will be back for more facials! It's worth the hour drive!
-Nancy A. (September 2015)

Aaron is an amazing make up artist!! I just LOVED the way he did my make up for my wedding! It was perfect!

Aaron is fantastic and his work is incredible. He was referred to me by a friend and we connected right away. Aaron knew I had a big wedding party and a lot of girls to put makeup on.

Aaron was absolutely professional, caring, and his service skills were the best. He cared about me, what colors would complement me, and highlighted certain facial features that enhanced my look. He also airbrushed my face, which took my look to another level. I cried at my son's wedding and my makeup still remained in tact with no change. I received many compliments on my makeup and was excited to share. I would highly recommend him for any event where you need your makeup done.

Asia W. (July 2016)
Crystal Lake, IL
Aaron is amazing! I didn't know what colors to choose for my eyes. I showed him the purse, shoes, and accessories I was going to wear with my navy blue dress; he already knew what colors would compliment my dress and skin tone. The air brush, concealer, blush, and bronzer covered up my acne, scars, and redness. In addition it also gave me some color in my cheeks and my skin a little glow. My face looked radiant and flawless! Highly recommend Aaron to anyone!
Tugba A. (August 2016)
Mundelein, IL
Aaron did a fantastic job! He did my makeup for my wedding and I couldn't have been happier! My makeup lasted all day in the August heat and he provided a touch up kit to keep me looking great all day. I would recommend Aaron for any event. Thank you so much for everything!

I don't think 5 stars is enough! Aaron was nothing less than amazing. My trial went beautifully and he came to me so I was comfortable in my house! The day of the wedding he was right on time and was totally open to minor changes I wanted on my wedding day! Oh, and his makeup is totally beautiful!!!! If he needs to bring an assistant, she is amazing too! One of my bridesmaids decided to get her makeup done once she saw everyone else's. Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you Aaron for helping me feel beautiful on my wedding day!!

Aaron was more than great, he was amazing! He was a trooper on my wedding day, even with the time crunch he took his time and made my bridesmaids and I look beautiful for the big day!

Aaron did my make up for my wedding and it was absolutely amazing we didn't even have time to do a trail and still nailed it. He did everyone who was involved in my wedding and they all looked amazing and we finished on time. I felt completely at ease having my face in Aaron's hands. I have recommended him several times and I will continue to do so! Once again he did amazing job! I felt incredibly beautiful that day and it stayed all day and night. Not even an eyelash came loose!
Maggie J (November 2016)

I visited the Avalon Day Spa for the first time today, and I will definitely be back. First and foremost I was impressed to learn they are open on Sundays. It works great with my hectic schedule.
Furthermore, I felt very relaxed and well taken care of with Aaron as my esthetician. He was kind, polite, and knowledgeable about the facial options and Aveda products. I look forward to making another appointment with Aaron soon!
Michelle W (February 2017)
Volo, IL
Aaron was recommended to me by my hairdresser. We had to change the original date of the trial but there were no issues working that out. I had not met Aaron before the trial but fell in love with his personality. He is easy to talk to and really knows what he is doing. The trial was fun I felt comfortable giving him feedback. He created a flawless and timeless look for me. Aaron was on time and ready to go at our hotel room on the day of our wedding. I had wanted a minor change from my preview and he was totally accommodating. I had my make-up done along with my three bridesmaids they were very happy and confident with the service Aaron provided. He worked cohesively with my hairdressers, he is great team player, and had a positive calm energy (just what you need on your wedding day). I was very emotional at my wedding and my makeup looked flawless throughout the night. I cannot recommend Aaron enough, he is so talented and you can tell he loves what he does. If you are thinking of booking Aaron, act quickly before he gets booked! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any specific questions about his services. Thank you again Aaron!

I loved my makeup trial before the wedding! Aaron was extremely helpful and wanted my input on what I preferred for my wedding makeup which I really appreciated!

Aaron was recommended to me from my sister who had her makeup done by him, and she raved about how great his makeup was and stayed on ALL night, which is unlike any other makeup artist she has seen. He was so easy to contact and always returned back to me right away. We did our makeup trial and I absolutel loved him and clicked with him right away. He arrived on time the morning of my wedding and brought everyting he needed, including chair and lighting. My bridal party's makeup looked stunning, but my makeup was a dream! Not only did my makeup look stunning, but it looked breathtaking in photos as well. I didn't have any flashback, no running of mascara, and it didn't move all night! He even supplied me with touchup lipstick, powder, and a few other goodies. My makeup was unreal and I felt like a bride! I would recommend Aaron in a heartbeat!
Ali H. (November 2017)

Aaron did an amazing job as the make-up artist for my wedding. During our trial run, he listened to what I did and did not want, and made recommendations when I wasn't sure. He's incredibly knowledgeable about what he does, and so much fun to work with. Thank you, Aaron!
Katherine D. (December 2017)

I made my decision to choose Aaron for my wedding after seeing his work from my Matron of Honor's wedding. His work is hands down outstanding! He gave me exactly what I pictured and also did a wonderful job on my bridesmaids. He's super easy going and made the morning of my wedding so much more upbeat and fun. He was prompt the day of the wedding and ready to go. Would chose him all over again and recommend him in a heartbeat. Thank you!!!!!

My hairstylist recommended Aaron to me for my wedding makeup, and I am so happy that I found him!!! Working with Aaron was such a great experience. He made my bridesmaids, my mom, and myself look great on wedding day! Aaron was also super flexible and came to our hotel room to do makeup. Even with ten people crammed into our room, Aaron was able to make our makeup look perfect. Also- we got married outside on one of the hottest day this year, and with temps close to 95 degrees, I was so worried about my makeup coming off. It didn’t! Even at the end of the night, it still looked great. Thank you Aaron for doing such an amazing job! I cannot thank you enough for helping to make our day so perfect!

Aaron did the makeup for myself (bride), my mother and my fiancé for our wedding. I admit that I have no idea what I am doing with makeup, I am terrible. Aaron performed a miracle. He figured out the right colors, tones, touchups, EVERYTHING on me. He made me look flawless (the pictures are incredible). He kept my fiancé looking masculine by added the right touchups and highlights. My mother looked wonderful. Aaron can work on all types of skin and with all types of people, smoothly and professionally.
Not only did he make us look fantastic but he also set an upbeat and relaxed tone. The wedding day is crazy, right? Not with Aaron around. He makes you feel calm and like nothing could go wrong on your wedding day. You are the best. Thank you, Aaron!

Aaron is absolutely amazing!! He did my makeup as well as 5 others for my wedding. Everyone looked stunning! He highlighted everyone’s best features while still keeping the overall look very natural. The makeup stayed in place throughout the entire night. He is also great to work with! He arrived promptly at our venue and was all set up by the time we arrived and were ready to start.

Aaron was amazing! I’m not one to wear makeup on a daily basis so I always get nervous having my makeup done, but with Aaron I didn’t have to worry! He made my bridal party and I look beautiful!! Highly recommend for any event.

Aaron did makeup for me and all of my bridesmaids on my wedding day. His energy is contagious and his work speaks for itself. Thank you so much for making me feel so beautiful on my special day!! Aaron also helped me prep my skin leading up to the wedding. He created a personalized skincare routine for me to follow and brought me in for monthly facials. I’ve never felt so confident in my skin! Aaron is a miracle worker!

Aaron is amazing! He did my makeup for my wedding, my bridesmaids, and my mom. When I looked in the mirror after my wedding makeup was finished, I was so impressed!! I felt like a princess and it was so natural and felt like I wasn’t wearing anything. I had a trial before the big day which was amazing as well. It was great to decide what I liked and Aaron took notes for what he did to ensure my makeup would be everything I wanted for my big day. Everyone had so many compliments about all of our makeup for the wedding. I would highly recommend Aaron to do your make up for weddings or any special event!

I had my first facial with Aaron and it was excellent! I felt very comfortable during the whole procedure and he explained everything to me because I like to know what's going on. My skin looks and feels great and I can't wait to see him again. He also shaped my eyebrows which I love as well! Highly recommended.

I really enjoyed Aaron’s facial. I have never had a facial before and I’m hooked. I can’t wait to come back and do it again! The experience was really relaxing and he taught me good tips and tricks to take care of my skin. I recommend Aaron’s facial if you want to have glowing skin and feel great. He also waxed my eyebrows(also new experience) and I love them!

This was one of my first times getting a facial. Aaron is an amazing person, and explained what was going on my face through the whole process. I don’t think I’ve ever been so relaxed before. My skin feels and looks great. I’m already looking at my schedule to see when I can get another one! Thank you Aaron!

I just got my very first facial with Aaron and I'm hooked! He creates such a relaxing environment and did an incredible job. My skin has never felt softer or more hydrated!

Aaron, first of all, is just a FUN HUMAN. He has great energy to be around. Second, extremely talented. He was recommended to me for bridal makeup. I was not so sure at first (about ANYONE doing my makeup.)
The start of my experience with him was great from the first step.
I came in for my preview session right from work; which means with a face full of makeup. He is so detailed that even removing my old makeup before applying the bridal look was basically A MINI FACIAL! So relaxing.
He put me at ease right away. Once we started makeup, conversation easily flowed, atmosphere was great and music was fab.
My biggest concern was my skin. I am 41, and sun damage is starting to show itself (wrinkles. 😳) He made my skin look amazing.
I am an extremely particular person when it comes to the details, and he rocked it.
All around, he knocked the experience out of the park.
On my wedding day he was prompt, professional but FUN!!! I received so many compliments on how wonderful my makeup looked. He definitely helped make me feel BEAUTIFUL on my wedding day.

I would recommend Aaron to anyone. I can feel a difference in my skin after only 1 session!! He recommended a light chemical peel and microdermabrasion. He is very talented in both skincare and makeup. I look forward to my next appt with him!! I should be looking like I'm in my 20s in no time!!! Thanks Aaron!!
