...I had the pleasure of working with Ania as I prepared for a very important photo shoot. I found her make up skills to be amazing. I have had the opportunity to work with many make up artists and I found her to be fast efficient and precise. She was wonderful working with my features and made the whole experience wonderful. As a person I found her engaging and very fun to be with as well as friendly polite and courteous. I would recommend her for any company wanting to improve there employee reputation.

Warm regards,

...Having Ania as a makeup artist was a really wonderful experience. Saying she is a professional is an understatement! Her attention to detail, and her desire to meet your requests made for a great final product. My photos turned out better than ever and I still use them, as a professional dancer, three years later.

…I have enjoyed meeting Ania so much. I used her services for my engagement photos and wedding day (both very important days) and I could not have been happier. I felt beautiful and loved my make up! The quality of both her work and the make up line itself was outstanding. The make up is gorgeous and Ania worked hard to make sure I was happy and looked fabulous. Overall, my experience has been excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend her or use her again myself. Outstanding Service!
