Wedding Beauty Team, Wedding Inspiration

You should never have to compromise your beauty ethics for a special event or your BIG day! The luxurious, non-toxic makeup products I use, provide endless performance to ensure that you have a naturally beautiful and healthy radiance throughout your entire wedding day.

As a holistic esthetician rooted in the lush, nature-filled landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, I understand the profound connection we have with our surroundings. It’s my passion to bring forth your inner radiance in a way that honors both your unique beauty and our cherished environment.

Do you want to look like yourself, but enhanced?

Your wedding day is a celebration of you, and I believe your makeup should enhance your natural features, not mask them. Our approach is to bring out your inner radiance, creating a look that feels like an elevated version of yourself. You’ll feel confident, comfortable, and, most importantly, authentically you.

Radiant, glowing skin is the epitome of timeless beauty. Our clean beauty products are specially curated to give you that fresh, luminous look. You’ll be the picture of health and vitality, radiating joy and happiness on your special day.

Do you care about what ingredients go on your skin?

We understand that what goes on your skin matters. That’s why we meticulously select non-toxic, high-quality ingredients for our makeup products. You can be confident that every application is a step towards a healthier, more vibrant you.

Whether you’re vegan, have gluten sensitivities, or simply have sensitive skin, our clean beauty products are designed with you in mind. They’re cruelty-free and we know how to build a look free from common allergens, ensuring that everyone can feel comfortable and confident in their own skin.

Happy Spring Equinox🌷it’s a new season and there a Happy Spring Equinox🌷it’s a new season and there are so many new faces here, so it felt like the right moment to show up and introduce myself properly. 

I’m Kelli - I have been a holistic esthetician and wedding beauty artist for over 25 years. The person in my chair matters to me. Not just how they look when they leave, but how they feel. Whether they feel like themselves and genuinely seen and cared for.

If we are working together on your wedding, I’m thinking about you long before I arrive - every detail, timeline, moment,  I’m holding space for it all and care deeply.

If you are a skin membership client, I track your terrain month by month like it is the most interesting story I’ve ever been told. Because it means so much to me that you’re advocating for your skin health. 

If you are in a makeup lesson with me, I’m not teaching you a look. I’m teaching you to see your own face - your features, your biology, to feel your nervous system.

Beauty is not a formula. Expect this account to get more intentional and educational. I’m so happy you are here for it! If you’re ready for terrain-based skin care that photographs luminously - COMMENT SPRING and I’ll send you my NEW 2026 SKIN PREP GUIDE.

Kaya came to me naturally beautiful and nervous. S Kaya came to me naturally beautiful and nervous. She left radiant and confident. Luckily, I got to be there while she let herself feel it. 

Then she immediately sent me these gorgeous photos and told me she’d been getting a ton of compliments on her hair & makeup - which made my whole week.

This is why I do this beauty work. Not to change anyone, but to help them show up as the most luminous version of themselves at the moments that matter.

To the most beautiful season of your life - Kaya. Cheers, Mama 🧡 #cleanbeauty #naturalbeauty #oregonmakeupartist #makeupmama
This is for the person who’s been scrolling weddin This is for the person who’s been scrolling wedding beauty with a quiet knot in your stomach.

The one who doesn’t wear much day to day and can’t picture themselves in a full face of heavy makeup. 

The one whose partner says “you’re beautiful without makeup” and means it. 

The one who wants to feel something special on that day without losing themselves in the process.

I see you. 
You’re not being difficult. 
You know what matters to you.

I’ve done over 500+ weddings and the most powerful moment is never the dramatic transformation, it’s the person who looks in the mirror and their eyes fill because they look like themselves, elevated. 

More luminous. 
More present. 
The version of themselves they feel on their best days, made visible.

That’s what intentional, botanical beauty means in practice. I read your skin before I touch it. I use formulas that work with your biology, not over it. I enhance instead of transform.

I’ve spent 28 years, from clinical esthetic training to eastern practices at Shiseido to evaluating 20+ professional product lines, learning how to do exactly that.

You don’t need to arrive knowing what you want. You need someone who knows how to see you. This is what we do - each artist on the team is here to help bring out your innate radiance.

The Year of the Fire Horse happens every 60 years! The Year of the Fire Horse happens every 60 years! Liz and Ashton's wedding at @theorchard.hr was fire meeting intention, capturing the energy of this exact spirit.

Bold beauty, rooted tradition, a dance led by the team at (@whitelotusliondance) that brought the entire room to life. The kind of celebration that reminds you what it looks like when culture, love, and beauty are honored with real care.

This is what I have been speaking to over the past few weeks - fire doesn't have to scatter. It can be directed. It can be precise. It can hold tradition and power in the same breath.

25 years of doing this work and being able to share in moments like these still stop me in my tracks. Not because they're perfect. Because they're intentional. Because every detail was chosen, not defaulted to.

That's the energy I want for all of us this year. Not more. Not louder. Not faster. Directed. Regulated. Rooted. On fire in the way that lights a room instead of burning it down.

Happy Lunar New Year 🔥 #ChineseNewYear #FireHorse #RegulatedandRadiant #WeddingBeauty #OregonWedding

2025 was full of flashy 12 step skin care routines 2025 was full of flashy 12 step skin care routines! Here’s what no one tells you about these rituals: not only can they wreak havoc on your microbiome, but they have to flex with your life or you’ll abandon them completely.

After 25+ years of working with real people through real life - weddings, grief, moves, breakups, illnesses - I know that rigid doesn’t work. What does work? Learning what your skin is actually telling you. Dryness isn’t always about hydration. Breakouts aren’t always about oil. Redness isn’t always about sensitivity. Your skin speaks a very specific language, and once you understand it, everything changes.

That’s where modalities like LED light become powerful - not as a daily must-do, but as a strategic tool that serves your skin’s current needs. Different wavelengths address different concerns, and together we can customize your treatments to work with your life, not against it.

Consistency at home + strategic in-studio support = your healthiest skin. Let’s make 2026 about intentional, true to YOU steps with #cleanbeauty ingredients that support your optimal health.
