Introduction
I’ve been doing makeup and hair for over 40 years. I have experience in film, TV, videos, photography, HD, weddings, corporate headshots, model’s portfolio, special occasions, birthdays, proms, red carpet, celebrities and the list goes on and on. I’m a perfectionist and pay special attention to details. I’m really good at taking directions and really understand what my clients want. I aim to please and do whatever it takes to make my clients happy. I can look at a picture and duplicate whatever you want. I’m truly an artist and create art with every face that I work on.

Doris did my hair and makeup for a wedding I was in. She was on time and listened to everything I wanted. I brought pictures for an idea of an updo and she delivered exactly what I needed! The makeup and hair lasted all night long. It was a no-stress process. I would rehire Doris for any special event. Thank you Doris!

Details: Wedding • 1 person • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

I hired Doris for a brunch event featuring a speaking panel and needed her services for touch-ups on our panelists and several guests as we offered headshots for attendees. I received compliments from multiple people she worked on and everyone had a fantastic time! She was extremely flexible and if my company is in San Diego again, I would not hesitate to reach out to hire her.

Details: Special occasion • 18 - 25 years old • 26 - 44 years old • Standard (brushes, sponges, etc.) • Day-of or night-of touch ups • 4 people • My home, venue, etc.

Thank you Shiela that was a fun event. I had no idea what it was about. I just thought I would be doing makeup on women for the panels and those that needed touch ups for their headshots. It was probably the most fun and exciting job of this kind that I have worked on. I loved how everyone came dressed to the nines for this event. It was fun to do creative makeup. I do hope you come back. It was so fun.

Doris was amazing. With just a few examples, Doris know exactly what I was looking for and delivered spectacularly. She did hair and make-up for my mother and me for my wedding. My mom, who rarely wears make-up was a little uncomfortable but Doris put her as ease. At the end, she finished right on time and I looked and felt great. I cannot recommend her enough.

Details: Wedding • 45 - 64 years old • 65 or older • I'm flexible • False lashes • Tattoo or scar covering • 2 people • My home, venue, etc.

Hi Lucinda, Thank you for your great review. I'm so glad I was able to give you what you wanted. Your mother is so sweet and cute. Nothing makes me happier than seeing everyone happy with how they look. Especially on your big day. Congratulations and I hope we can do this again for another special occasion.

Doris did an absolutely phenomenal job as the makeup artist for my engagement party!! She is incredibly professional and she is an absolute artist. She was very responsive throughout the process and punctual on the day of the party. She came prepared with extremely high quality makeup and supplies. She listened to exactly what I asked for in terms of my makeup look and she customized the look really nicely to flatter my face. She also did makeup for my mom and aunt, and she really did a beautiful job with each of them! Could not recommend Doris highly enough.
