Nancy Hathaway-Hopowiec, Make-up Artist

 

Makeup is often overlooked when planning your wedding, prom or other special occasion.  People always remember their hair, but they don’t realize that to look good in your Photos, you really need to have good makeup applied for photographic results.  What you may not notice with your naked eye will be captured forever by the camera, possibly belying your natural beauty....Similar to other professions, makeup artists specialize within their discipline. The trained makeup artist understands how lasting images are created and uses the proper tools and techniques to achieve the best photographic results for your unique features and wedding setting.  Being camera-ready will produce infinitely more flattering and much more natural photographic results. 

Nancy is trained in the art and craft of photography makeup, was featured on Cox television and has done work with speakers on public access television.  Nancy's makeup training began in 1992 and involved doing complete make-overs at area salons and she gradually became involved with local studios providing photographic makeup.  Nancy's training also includes working with Laura Mercier cosmetics, Bobbi Brown cosmetics and Este Lauder corporation.  Nancy continues to develop her talent in the latest makeup trends and techniques.  Having earned an enviable reputation within the industry as a fantastic make-up artist, she is currently the recommended make-up artist at many area events.   

 

"My personal choice and philosophy is soft, subtle Make-up, to enhance your best features and make you look naturally radiant and beautiful on your big day.   My goal is to have people notice you, not your make-up.  When they look at you, they see you, your radiance, beauty and sparkle, not your makeup.  There are many women however, that like a more dramatic look.  If that is your style, please let me know so I can accomodate your needs."

 

  Be Yourself Beauty owner, Nancy Hathaway-Hopowiec works with a very talented team of freelance makeup artists and hair stylists. 

Nancy often works with her team on Fashion shows, Special Events, Bridal Parties and teaching workshops.

Nancy, along with the Be Yourself Beauty team, looks forward to accommodating client requests and building long lasting relationships with their customers.

Please contact Nancy for additional information, special requests and availability.

Customer testimonials Dear Nancy, I just wanted to thank you again for everything on the 15th! Mike and I have been traveling since then and are currently in Shanghai (otherwise we would send you a hand written note!) but I wanted to let you know how much we appreciated your work and your efforts to help the afternoon go so smoothly! You certainly made my mothers and I beautiful, and we also appreciated your help with the pictures, flowers and making sure we got on the road in one piece! Good thing you were behind the minibus to notice the back door was ajar! I cannot tell you how many compliments I received on my makeup, we will certainly send any in search of a cosmetic artist your way. It was truly a pleasure meeting you, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your summer and thanks again for playing such a big part in making the day so memorable! All the best, Heather :)
