With an extensive creative background Sam has a keen eye for detail and loves nothing more than designing and executing bespoke looks for her clients, specifically her brides. Sam trained at the prestigious London College of Fashion where she gained a BA (HONS) degree in Specialist Make-up Design. During her time at LCF Sam gained both practical and theoretical knowledge and experience which has been invaluable in her career as a make-up artist and hairstylist.
Over the years Sam has had a varied career working in fashion, editorial, tv, magazine as well as for the ‘Look Good Feel Better’ Charity where she spent some time volunteering. After several years in the industry Sam found her niche and decided to specialise in bridal hair and make-up and has never looked back. She’s had the privilege to be part of hundreds of brides special days over the last 15+ years. Sam continues to attend masterclasses and workshops to ensure her skills and techniques are kept honed and current.
Sam is Sussex based but covers Surrey, Hampshire, Kent, London and further on request.
A little bit from Sam….
I’m a born and bred Brightonian and love living by the sea with my husband and our little boy
“I’ve always had a real passion for skincare and make-up ever since a teenager so following this career path was the perfect choice for me. I’m so glad I did as I honestly don’t even feel like it is ‘work’ as I enjoy it so much.
I love getting to know my brides at their trials if we haven’t met before and hearing all about their exciting wedding plans. Travel is a huge passion of mine and I’m always planning my next getaway so honeymoon is always a hot topic of discussion too! I absolutely love making people look and feel their absolute best, whatever the occasion. I’d love to hear from you…”
Fun Facts about me….
I’m a qualified personal trainer and I love running and exercising, as well as baking and eating cake! Life is all about balance after all…!
I’m a total foodie and in particular love Asian food (the flavours…!) and Bubble Tea!
I love travelling and will forever have itchy feet. I travelled South East Asia in 2013 and it was one of the best experiences of my life. While doing admin I have often find myself researching my next getaway!
