Hello love! I'm Katie McCaskill, and I'm a dually licensed makeup artist and hairstylist, with EXTENSIVE training in both fields of beauty.
I am also a SUPER DOG MOM to my Cavalier King Charles, Winston.
My. constant desire to learn more and more about what I love to do, separates me from other artists.
I have invested hundreds of hours of EXTENDED education in terms of bridal hairstyling and makeup artistry.
From going to other states to take top mentors classes, and online styling courses, I've followed my passion to keep improving and providing the most up to date techniques and styles for my clients!
Born in Tallahassee, and growing up in Orlando, I began learning and loving makeup first.
As a long time, live stage performing ballerina, I learned the importance of how to apply makeup!
That love of being on stage and appreciating the arts and the makeup behind it, blossomed into a long career for me as a makeup artist. On top of all that, I'm not bad at painting and digital illustration!
Working for companies like CHANEL, DIOR, and ultimately MAC, I had to opportunity of constant hands-on education and growth, and hundreds of faces to practice on! I decided I didn't want to stop at makeup, but also understand the beauty of hair.
I got my license in cosmetology and began to fulfill my goals of creating the entire "look". I fell in love with styling the hair after working at a blow dry bar in Sarasota.
Learning blowouts, updos, and current braided styles gave me a wonderful reputation for the one to "go to" for weddings, galas, photoshoots, etc.
My main focus now i bridal hairstyling, but I still will offer makeup for photoshoots, private clients, events and galas.
I am now living on the east coast in Juno Beach, which is in between Jupiter and Palm Beach Gardens, not far from Palm Beach!
