About Me

Relax and feel confident in the hands of a passionate artist. I have been working with brides since 2000. I've always loved doing up-do's, styling hair and doing makeup. I started doing proms and weddings for family and friends. I realized that doing hair and makeup was my true calling. Soon after that I started looking for a company to work for. I went online and started searching for wedding hair and makeup companies. I came across Hair Comes the Bride. In 2004, I started working for Hair Comes the Bride on weekends and at night doing previews with brides. I also starting working with a homebuilder and I was working there for 3yrs. I just recently got laid off in May of 2008, but I am extremely busy with my wedding and I do want to thank all my brides who are keeping me busy.

I learned and experienced alot working at Hair Comes the Bride. I learned the shortcuts and quickest ways of doing particular hairstyles. I continued working both jobs for 3yrs. People always asked, "How do you work both jobs?" I told them that I loved doing what I do in both fields. What I find really rewarding is the feeling when working with the brides. I love helping them look as fabulous as they are feeling on their wedding day, and for the years to come through their photos and videos.

In the beginning of 2007, I thought that it would be a good idea to start Long Lasting Impression. Doing hair and makeup is a passion of mine and is something that I take pride in doing. When I do start working a full-time job again, I will still maintain the high standards, quality, and caring attitude when working with my brides. I truly love weddings and I love every aspect of what I do. I hope that this shows in my business and in the services I provide.

Remember, on your wedding day you want someone who is highly skilled and experienced in wedding hair and makeup, and you want someone you can trust. You want someone with qualities such as, reliability, consistency, patience and who will strive to exceed your expectations. You and your wedding day are important to me! When all is said and done and your wedding day is here, I can ensure that your wedding day will be astounding with the services I provide for you.

On your wedding day, you certainly deserve the best!

Thank You!
