Originating from humble beginnings doing my own make up as a TV presenter, it’s taught me the importance and difference a skilled make up and beauty professional can make.

Obtaining my formal training through Napoleon Perdis , I then went on to work for Napoleon for a further 6 years. Following the completion of my time with Napoleon, freelancing as a wedding makeup artist became my focus and this has continued to be my passion for a further 8 years to date. During this time I have experienced an overwhelming demand, currently booking 80 – 100 weddings a year, with the demand constantly growing for my services I have developed Tamarua Beauty Academy .

Whilst enjoying a long and highly awarded career in the beauty industry (most recently the back to back 2013 and 2014 Makeup Artist of the year at the ABIA Awards), I possess a strong passion for creating a breathtaking look for the most memorable day of your life. Every Bride is different, and the look I create will be designed to capture the essence and beauty that is uniquely yours. 

My skills as a makeup artist have not being limited to bridal parties. I have had success within the industry creating glamorous fashion looks for countless red carpet events such as The Brownlow Awards and The Logie Awards. My work has been featured in various magazines such as Girlfriend Magazine, Melbourne Bridal and Fashion World to name a few.
