I found Aisha through here and from the beginning she has been amazing. I met with her for my trial and she was professional and most importantly did an amazing job. Even after I kept adding more and more people that needed to get their makeup done she was great and not annoyed :) She always answered my emails promptly. The big day wedding day she arrived as promised right at 1130 and she spent every minute on each of us girls and we looked beautiful :) I want to upload my pic so you can see how great my makeup was done :) I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great makeup artist !
GUEST




I highly recommend Picture Perfect Makeup and especially Aisha! She made me, my mom, and all of my bridesmaid look amazing on my wedding day. Aisha knows the balance between putting on enough make up for the cameras, but still keeping us looking natural and ourselves. She uses very high-quality make up and it lasted THE WHOLE DAY despite tears and all! I wish I could get my make up done by her everyday!
GUEST




Aisha is prompt, friendly, professional, and very talented. Her prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality of her work. She goes "above and beyond" and even helped cover up some scarring on my back that I had been worried about. I had no worries on my wedding day, largely thanks to Aisha! She is a pleasure to work with and as a "real" bride on a budget, I assure you that you are getting a great deal with Aisha. She is the best!

Aisha was great! We had 3 bridesmaids, 2 mothers, and 1 bride's make-up done, she was awesome!!! She made us all look gorgeous!
GUEST




Aisha from Picture Perfect Makeup was AMAZING. She made every girl look & feel so so beautiful. Everyone looked absolutely gorgeous. Aisha has a keen eye on what works best for the individual based on their skin tone, features, etc. She nailed the look I was going for...just perfect - not overdone or caked on. Everything felt light & natural without an imperfection/ blemish in site! I couldn't have asked for anything more. Ever since my trial, I have changed the way I do my own makeup. Aisha gave me some great tips!
GUEST




I highly recommend Aisha (Picture Perfect Makeup) to any bride who plans to get married in Washington DC. I did a trial run with three sisters expressing different opinions about my wedding day makeup and Aisha was very professional in handling all the suggestions and clashing personalities. She focused on what I wanted yet she was flexible enough to do three versions for me to choose from. At the end, everyone (including my opinionated) was happy with our makeup. Aisha ended up doing the bridal entourage's makeup as well and she got along with everyone. Very professional and talented, I highly recommend her.
GUEST




When Aisha arrived to my hotel room to do my make-up, I was not doing well nerves-wise. Aisha has such a calming and happy personality that I don't even remember the point when my nerves went out the door. She made me and my bridal party (some at no charge) look beautiful for the day. I had a 9-hour long wedding and my make-up held up! She was also happy to give me tips on make-up on the day of, and over email leading up to the wedding. I wish Aisha all the best and would use her again if I ever had a need to have my make-up done. I definitely felt like royalty in her hands!
GUEST




I got married last weekend and had my makeup done by Aisha. She did such a phenomenal job (just like the trial) and gave me a look that was beautiful and still looked like the natural me, just a lot better. My own sister couldn't finish her sentence for staring at me and when I asked what was wrong she just said "I keep staring at you because your makeup looks so good!" In addition, Aisha is just a nice person to be around and a great addition to the company during the pre-wedding get ready afternoon. Thanks, Aisha!
GUEST




Giannina from Picture Perfect makeup was awesome! I could have not picked a better person to make me look beautiful for my special day. She was calm and pleasant to work with. She did my whole Bridal party. including my mother whom is hard to please. We all looked fabulous and I want to thank you!!! I HIGHLY recommend Giannina she is truly amazing and her work is Beautiful!
GUEST




Aisha from Picture Perfect Makeup was amazing! She did make up for me, my bridesmaids, and our moms. My mom in particular was thrilled with her make up - what a treat for her to feel so beautiful! Aisha was easy to get in touch with in the months leading up to the wedding, was flexible, and did such a fabulous job getting us all ready for the big day!
GUEST




Aisha from Picture Perfect Makeup did my makeup for both my engagement photo shoot and my wedding and I could not be happier with her work! I would highly recommend Aisha to anyone. As one of my bridesmaids said, "she makes you look like you - only better."
My photographers (Ever After Visuals) recommended her and I decided to go with her for my engagement shoot after I read on her website that she had a less is more attitude in terms of makeup. I literally almost never wear makeup, so I think I present a bit of a challenge. No matter what, I'm going to look made-up. However, Aisha did a truly amazing job. My mom showed my wedding pictures to her co-workers and they all commented on how beautiful I looked. My mom told them, my daughter's pretty, but she doesn't normally look this beautiful! Aisha transformed me!
Typically, I think it is cheaper to get hair and makeup done with one person (I used My Mobile Salon for my hair but not makeup, as I had already booked Aisha). However, I think it is totally worth it to splurge on Aisha - as did my bridesmaids! After my maid of honor got her makeup done, 2 of my other bridesmaids saw how beautiful she looked and decided to get their makeup done as well.
My bridesmaids mentioned how calm and fun Aisha is to work with. She definitely enhanced the atmosphere as we all got ready. Aisha was extremely responsive via e-mail and a pleasure to work with! I would recommend her to anyone!
GUEST




Aisha was fabulous! Very personable and calming to be around on such a nerve racking day. She paid very close attention to detail and established a great flow with doing my bridesmaids and mother's make up. She manages her time very well! Everyone loved my make up, it looked flawless! She did a fabulous job with the liquid eye liner too. Book her immediately!
GUEST




Aisha did such a wonderful job on my makeup, as well as the makeup for the mothers and bridesmaids. She was so fun to have with me and such a calming influence, which is exactly what you want/need on your wedding day! I highly recommend Aisha from Picture Perfect Makeup - you will not be disappointed.
GUEST




Giannina did my make-up for my May wedding. Not only did everyone look amazing and the make-up stayed put (which was great considering how hot it was!), but Giannina is very professional, easy going and a pleasure to work with. I would strongly recommend her to anyone. In fact, I even went back to her after the wedding to get a new look for my honeymoon!
GUEST




Aisha of Picture Perfect Makeup was amazing. I felt like the world's most beautiful bride - she is a true professional and a joy to have with you on your wedding day. Every one of our family members and bridesmaids was thrilled with Aisha's mastery of her craft, most especially me. Book her NOW!
GUEST




LOVE LOVE LOVED Giannina! The whole experience was wonderful. She did a great makeup trial (which I scheduled for the day of my engagement photos!) and was open to experimenting to get the color and application just right. It was all perfect on the day of my wedding. Giannina did the makeup for myself, my mother, my aunt, and most of my bridesmaids, and was able to capture a natural elegance in each of us. One of my bridesmaids doesn't like wearing much makeup, but Giannina did a light application that looked perfect on her. Another bridesmaid was so impressed with Giannina's work that she went in to get lessons with her after the event. And when any of us wanted a tweak to the look, Giannina graciously altered whatever we wanted. I love that she doesn't use just one brand of makeup, but uses the best product out there, whatever the line it's from.
We all looked perfect for the day - elegant, polished, but not too made up. My friends and family looked the best I've ever seen them, and I definitely felt like the blushing bride.
A friend recommended Giannina to me, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Giannina to all brides. And when it's time to buy new makeup, I plan on visiting Giannina again!
GUEST




Aisha was absolutely awesome. It was such a great pleasure to work with her. She was actually the make-up artist for one of my bridesmaids' wedding and I knew I wanted her to do my wedding make-up when we first met. She was sweet, friendly, very professional and knows just how to make a girl look glamorous! I would definitely recommend her to everyone!
GUEST




Aisha was AWESOME. My make-up was flawless, and pretty. The make-up lasted all night!! Photos from the beginning of the day looked as good as the end of the night, thanks to Aisha. She also made up all of my bridesmaids, who looked stunning. Some girls never wear make-up, so Aisha was able to make them look natural. She turned these girls into make-up lovers! I would highly recommend Aisha to everyone!
GUEST




Harmony did my make-up for my wedding along with 2 of my bridesmaids. She did an excellent job and I got many compliments from family and friends during the wedding on how beautiful I looked. She was very easy to work with and was able to be flexible on the wedding day to meet our needs. I was reluctant at first on having someone do my make-up but I am so glad that I decided to do it. It is evident in the pictures how great of a job she did. My bridesmaids also told me that they were very pleased with their make-up. I would highly recommend her to any bride that is looking for a professional, friendly make-up artist for their special day!
GUEST




When I got engaged, there was no question in my mind that I wanted Aisha to do my wedding makeup. Aisha was very patient and gave me honest suggestions on how to achieve my ideal look. During our trial, we went through a few looks together until we found the one that was perfect for me! I pictured my wedding makeup to look glowing, very red-carpet Hollywood glamour. And during the wedding day, I looked exactly as I had dreamed! Aisha was very professional, timely, and very flexible on my wedding day. She not only did my makeup, she also did my mother and my bridesmaids makeup, as well. During the wedding reception, I received nothing but compliments the whole night about how wonderful our makeup all looked! I will definitely be using Aisha again for future events! If you want to look and feel glamourous on your wedding day or any event, I would highly recommend Aisha for your makeup needs!
GUEST




Aisha is awesome! I felt very comfortable within seconds of meeting her during my trial session. She had many good suggestions about what works best for me. On my wedding day, she made sure each person's makeup was age appropriate (from a seven year old to a fifty year old!) and was very professional. My mother (who is VERY picky!) thought she did an amazing job on everyone and my guests kept commenting on my makeup. I highly recommend her services, especially if you are looking for someone to do makeup for Asians!
GUEST




Giannina could not have been more perfect. After she had finish with my makeup I could not believe the person staring back at me. I have a lot of blemishes on my face and she was able to cover them up and still make me look natural. On my wedding day, she did not only do my makeup but my bridesmaids in total 9 as well. She was very professional and knew exactly what each of us needed. Thank you Ginannia you truly did help make my fairy tale wedding come true!!
GUEST




Aisha did a fantastic job for myself and my bridal party! I couldn't have been more pleased with the results. With some pretty bad make-up experiences under my belt, I initially was going to go the do-it-yourself make-up route. Aisha knew exactly what I wasn't looking for - no heavy white eyeshadow or overdone cheeks. She was extremely accomodating especially since I had to plan my wedding in DC while living in Boston. She worked with my schedule and was as flexible as possible. Not only is she extremely talented, but she is such a warm, caring and fun person to work with. So if you're looking for a fresh, natural look on your wedding day, you can't go wrong with Aisha!!
GUEST




Aisha was a pleasure to work with. I loved my wedding makeup and thought my Bridesmaids, and Mom looked great! She came to my house bright and early and on time, and finished everyone's makeup with time to spare. She was very friendly and I would definitely recommend her to others !
GUEST




Giannina did a wonderful job!!! My bridesmaids, mom, mother in law, and I were so pleased with our make up. She arrived exactly on time and finished exactly on time. I had initially booked another make up artist and after a disastrous trial, I met with Giannina. She was a lifesaver! The price was reasonable and the level of professionalism was very high. I highly recommend Picture Perfect!
GUEST




Aisha was awesome!! She did a wonderful job! I don't wear much makeup on a regular basis, but of course I wanted to for my wedding - without looking like a completely different person. She listened to what I wanted and truly gave me the exact look I was searching for. I am so happy with her services and my makeup looks great in the photos!!! :) Thank you so much Aisha!
GUEST




Harmony was great!!! not only she is a great person but a great make up artist, she did my make up and my mom for my wedding and EVERY BODY! was asking me who did my make up. I thank her for making me look so beutiful, I will recomed her for wedding any time and for any ocacion...Thanks againg Harmony.
GUEST




Aisha was worth every penny! Everyone in my wedding party looked amazing. She was also very calming on the day of the wedding and great to have around. My husband couldn't stop commenting about how great I looked :) This was the second time I had gotten my makeup done by her, I will definitely go to her again!
GUEST




My event was wonderfully planned with Catherine at the Hilton Garden Inn (Fairfax, VA), the choices we made in the planning were carried through the entire event and were exceptional! I could not recommend them more highly! The hotel and staff were top notch!
GUEST




Giannina was wonderful to work with on my wedding day! She came to the hotel to do my make-up in the morning and evening. Giannina is truly gifted when it comes to make-up application. I was so relexed as she applied my make-up because I knew she would do an amazing job. I received a ton of compliments. She made my wedding day perfect! I would highly recommend her to any bride.
GUEST




Aisha was worth every penny! All the bridesmaids and Mother-of-the-Bride, and of course the Bride, looked their absolute best. Everyone commented on how well the makeup stayed throughout the night, but that it felt like they weren't even wearing any. Having a makeup artist was definitely a necessity. Aisha was able to glam everyone up. We all felt beautiful and looked gorgeous in the pictures!
GUEST




Giannina from Picture Perfect Makeup was such a pleasure to work with! I met her last year when she did my cousins wedding party. I was so excited, when she told me she was available to do my wedding for Valentines day! She made my bridal party look amazing! Our makeup looked very natural and stayed on all night! Our pictures look beautiful! Thanks Giannina for making my wedding day so special....
GUEST




Aisha was wonderful to work with.
She was professional and personable, punctual, and flexible.
Aisha was easy to contact, and was always quick to respond.
One the day of the wedding, she arrived on time, and got all 6 of us ready on time.
My makeup lasted the entire day, from noon to past midnight.
GUEST




Picture Perfect was wonderful. Harmony did the make- up for my daughter, the birde, the maid of honor, her sister and me, the mother of the bride. From the beginning this company was extremely responsive. Harmony was a pleasure to do business with. She was pleasant and no pressure. We booked this service late. We were lucky that she was available. Harmony made time to meet with Amanda for the trial make-up session. We are all very pleased with our "look" that day. It was so evident in the pictures that our make- up enhanced our looks while looking natural. We looked great!!!
Harmony, thank for you being so pleasant and for doing such a wonderful job!!!
GUEST




Aisha did a fantastic job on my wedding make-up! I was fortunate enough to be able to book her services on short notice and she re-arranged her schedue so that I could also have a trial session with her. I felt very comfortable around her and she really understood what I was looking for. She asks for feedback through every step of the make-up application process. This ensures that there are no surprises and you get exactly the look that you want! I would highly recommend Aisha's services!
GUEST




Aisha was wonderful!!! She came on time and did a great job on everyone. She really took her time to make sure everyone was happy with the way their makeup looked. My bridesmaids loved the way she did their makeup. They are still talking about how great of a job she did. My makeup stayed flawless all night and the pictures looked great. If you book with her you won't regret it. Thanks for everything Aisha!!!
GUEST




Giannina from Picture Perfect did an AMAZING job with my wedding make-up. I absolutely loved how it turned out. It looked great and it felt great- it didn't feel heavy on my skin, very natural. It lasted over 12 hours! My mother and mother-in-law also had their make-up done and they were very happy. She came to the hotel where we were getting ready. She was completely professional, sweet and very calming. Just what you want during your wedding preparations. I highly recommend her to anyone.
GUEST




Aisha did my make-up as well as my 5 bridesmaids on my wedding day and I couldn't have been happier with her services. Our make-up lasted all night through all the tears, sweats, and other such craziness. She was very accomodating from the beginning when I contacted her about a trial run. She was such a calming presence on the day of. Most importantly, my bridesmaids and I felt beautiful which is especially important for any bride on her big day. Highly highly recommend!!!!
GUEST




Our makeup artist's name was Aisha and she is a gem! Unfortunately, our original makeup artist backed out the week before the wedding and she was surprisingly flexible enough to accomodate us. She was prompt in responding to e-mails and was punctual the morning of. I found Picture Perfect Makeup's prices were in the medium-high range, but not outrageous, and definitely well worth the money. The main thing we were looking for was a makeup artist that could bring out each individual's best features and didn't make us all look the same. Aisha was PERFECT! All of us were happy with our makeup and for some, it was their first good experience with a makeup out of many bad experiences. Four of us were Korean and the fifth bridesmaid was Caucasian and Aisha did a perfect job on our own unique looks and skin tone/complexions. We will all refer you again, thanks so much Aisha!
GUEST




I was VERY lucky and booked Giannina only a week before my event. She was professional and very easy to work with. I felt comfortable telling her what I wanted and giving feedback and she was knowledgeable in response to any questions I had. She showed up on-time and was very efficient. Both I and all my bridesmaids loved how we looked and received many compliments. Considering such short notice, I felt very lucky to book her and I would recommend her to family and friends. Thanks, Giannina!
GUEST




Aisha Alves did my makeup on the day of my wedding, and she did a wonderful job! Everybody commented on how good my makeup looked - including guy friends who have absolutely no idea of the intricacies of makeup : ) - the look Aisha gave me was really me, "just better". I was concerned that my makeup would not last the entire day, but it really did. Aisha turned up promptly at my hotel room at 8:30am my wedding morning, and despite the early hour was cheerful and calm. She explained everything step by step, and was also very receptive to concerns and suggestions from myself and my maid of honor. She continued refining my makeup until we were all satisfied that it looked great. It took just over an hour to get the complete look, and my makeup lasted from 9:30am to at least 11pm that night when I finally stumbled exhausted but happy, back into the hotel room.
I did a trial with Aisha about 2 months before the wedding, and was immediately assured that she would do a good job on the big day. She did that and more. I highly recommend Aisha and Picture Perfect Makeup!
GUEST




What a treat it was to have Giannina do my wedding makeup! She did an amazing job for me, my bridesmaids, and my mother. I felt wonderful and loved the natural look that she gave me and my entire wedding party. I would highly recommend her to anyone who asked for a professional and talented makeup artist. Thanks so much!
GUEST




I would highly recommend Aisha for any brides' wedding day make up! From initial contact to the day of, she was very professional and great to work with. The trial with Aisha went very well as did the day of make up. Aisha came to the hotel, was on time (even a little early -- which was great) and did a great job. My make up lasted the entire day and I felt like I had the natural look I desired while still feeling like a true bride!
GUEST




Aisha Alves is such a talented make-up artist!! She came to the hotel room to do my make-up as well as for my mom and aunt. She was punctual and professional yet also so friendly, fun, and personable, which is so important on a day that can be busy and crazy. I had gone to a couple of other make-up artists but after doing a trial with Aisha there was no doubt I wanted her to do our make-up. I rarely ever wear make-up and neither does my mom and aunt but she managed to make us feel so comfortable and brought out the enhanced version of all of us. I was especially worried about my mom and aunt as they wanted me to get a Korean make-up artist but at the end they mentioned that I made a wise move by booking Aisha. I got lots of compliments about how the make-up looked so natural yet there enough to be elegant, exactly what I wanted. Aisha is so good at working with what you want and giving you the best and most beautiful look possible. And, my make-up lasted all day and it was quite a long day. Plus, I cried so much throughout the day and the make-up still remained flawless. I would not hestitate at all to book Aisha, you won't regret it as she is incredible at what she does!!
GUEST




Aisha at Picture Perfect Make-up did the make-up for my mother, my bridesmaids, and me. She made everyone look like the best version of themselves. We all have a different look / style and Aisha worked with each girl to make sure that we all looked our best and felt comfortable. I danced well into the night and even in the pictures of me at the end of the wedding - my make-up is flawless! The wedding day is so important to look great but also feel comfortable - Aisha made sure to make that happen. From my first trial run with her through the finishing touches as I left for the Church - she did an amazing job. I would (and will) reccommend Aisha to my dearest friends. Thanks for a fantastic job!!!
GUEST




Aisha came on location to our wedding and did my bridal makeup as well as my bridesmaids. She is very friendly and so talented! Our makeup looked very natural and lasted the whole event. She is great at making you feel less stress on the big day. Overall-Aisha does amazing work! All our family and friends complimented how beautiful we all looked. I definitely recommended her for your special occasion.
GUEST




I am extremely happy with Aisha's services. She did a fantastic job on my makeup, and it looked gorgeous while still being natural. It also lasted all night. I received tons of compliments on how I looked. She was a calming, soothing presence while I was getting ready. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist.
GUEST




It was a wonderful experience working with Aisha. She made me look and feel beautiful. My make-up lasted whole day and night. Even after tons of hugs and kisses, I didn't need any touch-ups. I was worry free. She's best.
GUEST




Giannina did my make-up for my wedding in September. She was wonderful to work with and my face looked very natural but the make-up stayed on all night. My pictures turned out wonderful and I would highly recommend getting your make-up done for your big day and Giannina was great to work with!
GUEST




Aisha did my bridal makeup and also makeup for my maid-of-honor. She was always very quick and friendly with all of the emails we tossed back and forth, did and amazing makeup trial for us both. I don't typically wear much makeup and was a little worried at how I would turn out looking, but she gave me a simple, natural and yet very elegant look. My maid-of-honor has eczema on most of her body, and when Aisha was done with her makeup, her skin looked glowing and healthy... so much so that she decided to book her for her upcoming wedding too!
GUEST




Aisha, from Picture Perfect Makeup DC did a make-over workshop for four friends and myself.
She was a smashing success. She showed up on time, was extremely professional, at the same time fun and personable.
Her knowledge of make-up application was exceptional and even more importantly, her ability to explain to us what she was doing in order for us to replicate the looks on our own. She did individual looks on everyone, so we all learned something new with each makeover.
I was very pleased with her services and would highly recommend Aisha for any make-up occasion!
GUEST




I couldn't have found a better makeup artist at the last minute! She did a wonderful job with my wedding makeup as well as other family members. She made me feel at ease and very relaxed. Thank you soooo much Aisha!
GUEST




Aisha of Picture Perfect Make-up was excellent. From the time of inital contact, she was professional as well as personable. She did my make-up as well as that of the mothers of the bride and groom and bridal party. Everyone looked like the best versions of themselves both in person and in all of the photographs. Aisha came to our hotel suite and everyone was able to relax, spend time together, and get beautiful! I highly recommend Aisha Alves and Picture Perfect Make-up DC.
GUEST




Giannina was great! My bridesmaids and I looked fabulous! She is very talented! I highly recommend her!
GUEST




Aisha was wonderful. My mom does not wear a lot of make-up and Aisha made my mom feel so comfortable and relaxed. My make-up was perfect. It lasted through the humidty and the heat of the day. Even when I was dancing and hot, my make-up still looked flawless. I never felt more beautiful.
GUEST




Aisha was wonderful !!! She did an awesome job on my make-up as well as my mom and all of my bridesmaids. She captured the look that I wanted. Everyone, including my now husband, complimented me on my make-up. It shows in the pictures how great the make-up looked. Thank you, Aisha, for being a part of my special day. I highly recommend Aisha's services. Looking forward to hopefully working with you again in the future. - Rita Fernando Minteer -
GUEST




Aisha was a dream to have on my wedding day! She was super friendly, on time, professional and the make up was flawless and exactly what I wanted for the big day! I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a make up artist!
GUEST




Aisha was great. She came on time at 6am in the morning and was able to do everyone's makeup perfectly!! I loved my makeup and so did all my bridemaid's and my mom!! Thanks Aisha!
GUEST




I absolutely LOVED the makeup that Aisha did for my wedding!! At our makeup trial, she listened to what I wanted, and came up with a natural and beautiful look - just what I wanted. She also did the makeup for my mom and one of my bridesmaids, and they both absolutely loved how they looked. She arrived on time on the wedding day, and she was definitely a calming presence in the room for all of us! My pictures turned out beautifully, and I definitely attribute that at least in part to Aisha's great makeup artistry. I highly recommend her, and I hope I get a chance to use her services again in the future!
GUEST




I worked with Aisha and she was amazing. She was flexible about scheduling the makeup trial, and was patient with me as I was nervous after previously having a not-so-great trial with someone else. I brought her a photo and she was able to duplicate it in my makeup *perfectly*. I felt like me, just amplified. The day of the wedding, my mom and bridesmaids who chose to have their makeup done were thrilled, as was I - and my makeup lasted until the wee hours of the morning. I was so happy with how it turned out, I can't even begin to say. Hire Aisha, she's fantastic!
GUEST




Loved Loved Loved the make up. Everyone in my bridal party is extremely picky with make up including myself. It took me a very long time to find Aisha but it was worth it. The make up lasted and everyone loooved her. Her make up is flawless.
GUEST




Giannina was a great makeup artist who made us all look beautiful for our July 4th wedding. She was professional (translation: was prepared and arrived on time), was calm even though people swirled around us, made my skin looked flawless and picked a makeup palette that brought out my best features. I felt natural and comfortable with my makeup and wish that I could look like that everyday. The makeup looked great in person and on film. I loved loved the way I look. Thanks Giannina!
GUEST




Aisha Alves was absolutely wonderful! The makeup looked very natural, and I felt beautiful. I would highly recommend her!
GUEST




I had Aisha do my makeup for my July 09 wedding. Originally I had just booked her services for myself and one of my bridesmaids but on the day of the wedding my mom decided she wanted hers done as well. Aisha was more than accomodating and was able to fit us all in with no problem. I highly recommend her services for wedding day makeup! I felt beautiful on the day of and the makeup lasted through the night.
I am quite picky about my makeup and I wear a decent amount of it so it was really hard for me to find a makeup artist. I met with several people and even had two trials with Aisha before making a decision but I definetly made the right one. She was able to make me look dramatic yet not overdone and it was something special from my everyday look.
GUEST




Aisha was wonderful to work with. My wedding day makeup was perfect and lasted all evening. All of my bridesmaids, my mother, and my mother-in-law looked like stars! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented makeup artist with a warm and sparkly personality.
GUEST




They were fantastic. They had a contract, she was there on time, everyone looked amazing!!!!
GUEST




I had a wonderful experience with Picture Perfect Makeup and specifically, my makeup artist Giannina! She was very professional, extremely prompt the day of my wedding and a delight to work with! My wedding party and mother loved the makeup style she did for them, and I especially loved the time she took perfecting my makeup! Two of my sisters had previously used Aisha for their wedding and she was also wonderful! Would highly recommend Picture Perfect Makeup!
GUEST




Aisha goes above and beyond to ensure you look perfect for your big day! She balances the make-up perfectly; where you look great in photo's and in-person.
GUEST




I requested Aisha from the start and was thrilled that I did! The trial was great (although a bit awkward in a very busy Sephora), but my makeup the day of my wedding was amazing! It is quite expensive, but so was my photographer and I didn't want bad makeup in photographs I will look at forever, so I can easily justify the expense :)
GUEST




Aisha was wonderful...she worked with me to make me and my bridesmaids look their best, and still look like ourselves! Thank you for a wonderful day!!
GUEST




Aisha was fantastic. She was very open about why she was choosing the colors she was using which was very helpful for someone like me who isn't used to makeup. The makeup suited by dress perfectly and looked great. On top of that Aisha was wonderful to work with.
GUEST




I would definitely recommend Gianinna from Picture Perfect Makeup. She did my make up for my wedding (July 2008) and did a great job! She was very easy to work with and very professional. I loved the way my make up looked in my pictures. She uses top quality products that held up in throughout the entire day and the hot and humid weather. Thank you Gianinna!
GUEST




Aisha did a wonderful job from Picture Perfect Makeup for my and my wedding party's makeup. She was very responsive to my e-mails. Aisha went through a couple of make-up trials with me until I was satisfied with my wedding day look. On the day of the wedding, my bridesmaids were all pleased with how their make-up turned out. The majority of my bridesmaids (as was I) weren't use to wearing a lot of make up and Aisha gave us a very natural polished look. We all received many compliments on our make-up. Aisha was awesome and I would recommend her to family and friends. Thanks again!!
GUEST




Aisha Alves did a fabulous job on my bridal makeup! She was punctual, fun, easy going yet professional and most of all gave me a look that I loved! During our trial, Aisha really listened to what I was looking for and she offered great suggestions on ways to improve and take care of my skin before the wedding.
Overall, I would highly recommend Aisha for anyone's wedding makeup.
GUEST




Aisha was my makeup artist for my wedding. I had her do makeup for me and my 6 bridesmaids. Everyone's makeup turned out great and everyone looked beautiful. Another plus is that she had the timing worked out perfectly so we were on time the entire day of the wedding. I really liked my makeup and it lasted through the entire reception despite a packed sweaty dancefloor. She used high quality products too, which I think definitely makes a difference. Highly recommended!

Giannina of Picture Perfect Makeup was great!! She did my makeup for my wedding day, as well as my maid of honor and my mother. We all loved our makeup for the day!! It was exactly the look we wanted. Giannina was very flexible and professional to work with from the initial contact through the wedding day. I would highly recommend Giannina's services to everyone!!

Aisha did a great job on my wedding makeup and was very professional, knowledgeable and has a very calming demeanor. My big thing was I wanted to look like myself and not super "made up" and my makeup looked really natural and stayed put all day (and through hurricane-like weather). She is definitely pricey but she spends a lot of time with you on the day of the wedding making sure you look perfect and also comes to where you are getting ready which makes it a lot less stressful. The only thing I was slightly disappointed by was at my trial I left not really liking the way she did my eyes and when I emailed her to see if I could come back and have her just redo my eyes she was going to charge me money to do another trial. So I would recommend that if you go to the trial and don't love the makeup have her try a different look before leaving - which is probably what I should have done. I decided to forgo the second trial and just wing it on the wedding day and she did a great job. So all in all I was very happy with the end product and my makeup looks great in all of my wedding pictures. She also did my mother's, mother-in-laws and a bridesmaid's makeup and everyone looked great. Doing my mother-in-laws makeup was a very last minute decision and she accomodated that no problem.

Aisha did a great job on my makeup and the makeup of my bridesmaids. She also did my sister's wedding so I knew about her services ahead of time. She's professional and knows how to work with your skin type. I loved knowing I could count on her to make me look and feel my best on my wedding day!

Aisha of Picture Perfect Makeup did my makeup for my wedding along with my 6 bridesmaids and was fantastic! From the makeup trial to the day-of, she made sure I was completely happy with the way I looked. I came to her not knowing exactly what I wanted to do - I told her I look best in pinks and browns since I have warm toned skin, I prefer a lighter lip and a darker, smoky eye, and that I wasn't afraid of color and drama. She took it from there and I ended up looking fabulous! She was extremely responsive to my emails (and there were a lot of them!) and helped answer any questions I had.
On the day-of we ended up running extremely tight on time - Although I had planned out every 1/2 hour of the getting-ready process, we were getting our hair done at a salon uptown and Aisha was doing makeup in the hotel rooms downtown. The salon got backed up so the girls were running late getting back to the hotel. There was an hour when the poor makeup artists were just sitting in the hotel room with no one to make up! Luckily Aisha thought ahead and brought an assistant to moisturize and prep which really moved the process along. They both took it in stride and made the time right up! All 7 of us were finished and beautiful by 4 pm to meet the limo downstairs!
One suggestion - instead of having the bride purchase touchup makeup, give out little sample sizes to her and the other girls. While I loved the makeup I purchased from Neiman and still use some of it for everyday, it was definitely an added cost that I could have done without.
Other than that, everything was perfect and I would highly recommend Aisha and Picture Perfect Makeup.

Giannina was very friendly and easy to work with. I didn't want to look overly made up and she did a great job making me look natural. I got many compliments on how great I looked!

Aisha did a great job. She listened to what I wanted and it came out great. My mom, who never wears make up and was very nervous about getting it done, said that she made her feel so comfortable. She kept us all looking like a better version of ourselves, not someone else!

Aisha is lovely to work with and did a great job!

"Aisha was wonderful!!! She came on time and did a great job on everyone. She really took her time to make sure everyone was happy with the way their makeup looked. My bridesmaids loved the way she did their makeup. They are still talking about how great of a job she did. My makeup stayed flawless all night and the pictures looked great.

"Picture Perfect was wonderful! Harmony did the make-up for my daughter, the bride, the maid of honor, her sister, and me, the mother of the bride. From the beginning, the comany was extremely responsive. Harmony was a pleasure to do business with. She was pleasant and no pressure. We booked this service late. We were lucky that she was available. Harmony made time to meet with Amanda for the trial make-up session. We all are very pleased with our 'look' that day. It was so evident in the pictures that our make-up enhanced our looks while looking natural. We looked great! Harmony, thank you for being so pleasant and for doing such a wonderful job!!!”
"Aisha did my make-up as well as my 5 bridesmaids on my wedding day and I couldn't have been happier with her services. Our make-up lasted all night through all the tears, sweats, and other such craziness. She was very accommodating from the beginning when I contacted her about a trial run. She was such a calming presence on the day of. Most importantly, my bridesmaids and I felt beautiful which is especially important for any bride on her big day. Highly highly recommend!!!!”
"Giannina, I just wanted to thank you again for the beautiful job you did on my makeup for my wedding. You seriously transformed me - I have never felt so beautiful and radiant in my life, thanks to the amazing job you did. I cannot tell you how many compliments I got on my makeup!”
"Aisha was wonderful !!! She did an awesome job on my make-up as well as my mom and all of my bridesmaids. She captured the look that I wanted. Everyone, including my now husband, complimented me on my make-up. It shows in the pictures how great the make-up looked. Thank you, Aisha, for being a part of my special day. I highly recommend Aisha's services. Looking forward to hopefully working with you again in the future.”

Aisha is incredible! We've worked together on a number of weddings and each time the bride and the bridal party have looked flawless. She is so talented!
The first time I met Aisha and the Picture Perfect Makeup crew, they came to the hotel where the women were getting ready to provide makeup for the entire bridal party. The experience was wonderful for all involved. I know the bride loved them, and the results were fabulous as well. They really do live up to their name!
Simply stated in one word "Flawless!"

FAQ for Picture Perfect Makeup
On the day of your wedding (or another big event) you want to make sure you turn up the glamour a little. The look of a professional application is more polished, elegant, and usually lasts longer. Getting your makeup done is also a good idea if you are expecting to take a lot of pictures. A professional artist can use special photo-makeup techniques to help contour and highlight your features to get the most photogenic finish. Finally, most of my brides tell me that the hour they spend getting their makeup done is the most soothing part of a hectic day!
I have sensitive skin. Will the makeup break me out?
All of the products used by our artists are dermatologist and ophthalmologist tested. If you have sensitivity to specific ingredients or products (like sunscreen or fragrance, for example) Just let your artist know ahead of time so that alternate products can be supplied.
Can my Bridesmaids get their makeup done, too?
Absolutely! Actually, Picture Perfect Makeup offers special offers for larger groups.
Picture Perfect Tips:
Bring pictures of your dress, talk about how you are styling your hair, maybe bring swatches of your bridesmaid’s dress color. All of these clues will help your artist create the perfect look for your Wedding Day.
While many Brides/Bridesmaids choose to pay individually for professional makeup services, some Brides have treated their wedding party to the makeup as a Thank you gift. The gals get a little pampering on the day of the wedding, you get a glammed-up wedding party!
Buy your lipstick/liner/gloss beforehand and designate a trusty bridesmaid to be in charge of holding on to them throughout the event in case you need touchups!
