Hi, I'm Carly. I believe makeup should never make you feel like someone else; it should help you feel like the most confident, radiant version of yourself.

I've been a professional makeup artist for over 20 years, after completing my Diploma in Makeup Artistry with Napoleon Perdis. What began as a passion quickly grew into a career that has taken me from fashion editorials and commercial campaigns to weddings, special events and everything in between.

Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of assisting renowned Australian makeup artist Rae Morris, whose artistry and attention to detail have been a constant source of inspiration. I've also worked alongside Shella Martin on a campaign for MECCA, an experience that combined my love of beauty with one of Australia's most iconic beauty retailers.

Today, I work with women of all ages, creating soft, timeless makeup that enhances natural beauty rather than covering it. Whether you're a bride, celebrating a milestone birthday, attending a special event, having professional photos taken or simply treating yourself, my goal is to create a look that feels elegant, effortless and authentically you.

My approach is always centred around glowing skin, soft definition and makeup that feels lightweight, comfortable and photographs beautifully.

For me, makeup isn't about hiding who you are; it's about enhancing your natural beauty and giving you the confidence to walk into any room feeling like the very best version of yourself.

When I'm not behind the makeup chair, you'll usually find me exploring vintage markets, spending time with animals, singing with my choir, or enjoying life's simple moments with family and friends. I believe beauty is about confidence, kindness and embracing every stage of life.

It would be an honour to be part of your special day or celebration, and I can't wait to help you look and feel your absolute best.
