Hi Im Sara and I'm a Dublin Based Creative Make Up Artist.
After modeling for a few years my love and interest in crazy and elaborate make up grew and grew so I decided to start a make up course.
I have since finished and now hold my ITEC Certificate in Day,Evening,Bridal and Special Occasion Make up.
And my ITEC Diploma in Fashion,Media,Theatre and Special Effects Make Up,receiving all credits and merits.
I have been full qualified and working in the industry over 2 years.

I love getting really creative with shoots,doing something daring that I haven't quite seen before. Something with a story that really captures the viewer.
Using all sorts of mediums,colours and materials.I've been drawing and painting for years,its just that these days my canvas is a pretty face :)

I have also done styling for most of my make up shots,and love this side of the process also as the right styling brings out the best in the Make Up.

I am willing to work on some TFCD if the idea will be a unique edition to my portfolio.Otherwise my rates are very reasonable and I always give 110%

I am also currently studying towards my Diploma in Hairdressing as I felt this would add to my make up skills greatly,widening opportunities for more work and more elaborate shoots.

**NOTE:I have a new policy where if I'm let down by a Model,Photographer etc especially a few hours before a shoot I will not work with them again.It takes a lot of time and effort to organize a shoot and to text someone an hour before without a decent excuse just isn't good enough.This has happend to me twice now and I'm determined not to have it happen again.**

Quotes from models and photographers:

"Sara is certainly one of the best Makeup Artist's I have ever had the pleasure of working with. As any photogapher and retoucher knows , having a MUA who excels at Makeup with an eye for detail makes the workload that much more easer to deal with and retouch. Have a look your self at her amazing gallery and observe the detail that goes in to the makeup, that is craftsmanship, simply put Sara is one of the best MUA avail in Ireland today."
