"I was lucky to have the privilege of working with Christopher for my January 4, 2014 wedding at Willow Heights Mansion. I had done a few other "trails" before finding Christopher. The problem I was encountering was that a lot of wedding makeup artists caked on the makeup and it simply just did not look all that great. Seeing as how makeup can break or make wedding pictures I was on a mission to find the right makeup artist for the job!
It was just two months before my wedding when I had a trail run with Christopher. I was a bit nervous that I would not find the right person to do my makeup and that I was going to have to settle! Christopher was knowledgeable, listened to what my vision was, and extremely easy to work with. Right after my trail I immediately booked him for my wedding.
On the morning of our wedding Christopher did my Mom's makeup, my four Bridesmaids, and myself. He worked efficiently and knew exactly what everyone needed in order to look their best. All of our makeup looked immaculate the entire day and night. Our pictures turned out amazing and truly reflect the great work that Christopher did. His infections personality and professionalism were greatly appreciated throughout this whole process. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for the perfect makeup artist for their big day!"

"When my original make-up artist wasn't available for my wedding day, I worried that I wouldn't find someone who could pull of the natural but elegant look I wanted. Then I found Christopher, who was amazing! I'm not big on make-up and was so impressed with Christopher giving me a beautiful balance of glamour and "wow" while honoring my request to "look natural" His work had me smiling like a super-model; he truly is an artist (and all my bridesmaids would agree!). I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a gorgeous face - he's wonderful!!!

Christopher TT
Born and raised in San Jose, Christopher started his career in the beauty industry as a makeup artist for MAC Cosmetics. At the time, it had not occured to him that this was the beginning of an endless and exciting journey.
Christopher decided it was time to take his career and abilities to the next level and enrolled in cosmetology school.
That day a seed was planted and continues to grow today. He is now sharing and spreading his God given talent.
His vision is to have a team of artists to create a fun and relaxed environment as you are getting polished, prepped and shined for your special event.
