"There are no other words to describe Gayatri other than phenomenal. I booked her for my Chicago wedding, and from our very first phone call, I knew that I would be able to put my trust and confidence in her. She was, of course, very professional, very respectful, and so knowledgeable about even the tiniest, yet important, details - like the type of flower that would suit my hair. She has a knack for knowing what looks good on your face and hair, and how to tailor the look to your interests - which is SO IMPORTANT for your wedding. I myself am so bad at makeup and hair, and I always worried about describing what I wanted to my future MUA. I worried about my oily face, my dark circles, and of course crying all my makeup off (like every other Indian bride). Gayatri brushed all my worries aside. She used the highest quality makeup and she knew exactly how to address my concerns using distinct products tailored to my skin. She came prepared to a tee, and even made sure she was available for touch ups throughout the day. She was always responsive, very punctual, very flexible with my busy schedule and travel, and was so reasonable when it comes to accommodating you as a bride. She puts you first and will go out of her way to make sure you are glammed up to par :) I cannot stress enough how much she just naturally knows what looks good on you, and she won't stop working until you are 100% in love with your look. (We never even did a trial, and I know that is scary for some brides! However with her expertise, it's not even the slightest issue!) Throughout this journey, she was not only the best MUA I've ever seen, but such a loving friend. She's so caring and thoughtful. I wish I could get married again just so she could glam me up!! After my wedding, even all of my friends decided they would look no further for a MUA when it comes time to their own weddings! I recommend her a million percent"

"The teachers for whom you did makeup for our promotional video sent us the following e-mail about you: "A wonderful lady with her bag of tricks to work her magic. She pampered us and made us look good for the video promo! Our students could hardly recognize us by the time she got done with us." Thanks so much for helping us out! You really made their day!"

I had an amazing experience my wedding weekend with Gaytri! She not only understood my vision and natural look but she made the whole process calm and fun! She was there for me every minute with touch ups, re pinning, and even honest bridal advice! I felt like I had a member of my own family with all the help and support she provided. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to look perfect on their big day and will have a good time in the process!

"It's so evident how passionate Gayatri is about what she does. She is very friendly, straight-forward, punctual, flexible, and creative. For someone who doesn't wear much make-up on a daily basis, I was worried about how heavy make-up would look on me. However, she did wonders. Even through tears on my wedding day, the make-up stayed put. Additionally, she did magic to my thin, fragile hair and made me look like a fairytale princess for my wedding festivities.. Everyone complimented my hair and make-up at my engagement party, sangeet, wedding, and reception. She definitely exceeded my expectations!"

Gayatri is a darling! She has dolled me up many times over the last 4 years. The resulting looks have always been amazing, and got me tons of compliments from my friends & family. They all want to go to her! No wonder her great work and likeable personality have made her one the top Makeup artists in town in such a short time.

I worked with Gayatri on an assignment in NYC in 2013. As a professional fashion photographer based in New York City, I have been fortunate enough to work with many talented and world renowned makeup professionals. In my opinion, Gayatri's makeup talent is at par with that of many famous makeup artists. Her relentless focus on getting results for the clients and amazing personality, are her most awesome attributes.
