We love, love, love working with Jess and her girls!
They are professional, dynamic, and create AMAZING artistry!
Here is a quick Bio on each of her team members
so that you can get to know them better...
Jess
Waldrop: Artistic Coordinator/Lead Makeup Artist
Co-Owner of Studio 2 Event Styling
"I adore Makeup in every way. How it can change your mood and bring you to
life. I was influenced by my Grandmother. Seeing her collection of antique lip
sticks and rouge gave me my unique style which has a vintage classic feel.
Weddings have always been one of my favorite events to be apart of. I love
helping with the finishing touches on the day a women has waited for her whole
life. Being there for the bride and helping her to relax and feel beautiful is
so important to me.
My official makeup training began at Permanent Choices Training Center in
Alameda, Ca.
I
specialized in Permanent Makeup, Scar Coverage and
Areola Reconstruction. After 3 years of running a successful business I started
working for M.A.C Cosmetics. There I fine tuned my makeup skills, became a
Product Specialist and trained employees on new products and techniques.
Experience followed as I took jobs with top agencies like SMG and Wilhelmina
and spent several years working with photographers from around the world on
projects in print and commercial. I have since moved to Tampa Fl with my
husband and two children.
Currently,
I am working on several exciting projects, which includes developing my
signature brush line and building our new Makeup Studio from the ground up! I
lead a team of amazing Artists who specialize in Wedding and Event Makeup,
In-door/Outdoor Photography Makeup, Boudoir, Fashion Photography, Print,
Commercial, Avant Garde and Comp Cards."
Crystal Eller - Makeup
Artist/Cosmetologist
"Do what you love, love what you do ...which brings me to
this. I am a dream chaser. I have a love for life and making others smile and
feel beautiful! I graduated from Paul Mitchell the School Tampa with my license
in Cosmetology.
My passion is makeup! I have
worked with amazing photographers in Print, Boudoir and Fashion. My absolute
favorite events to be apart of are weddings! To me there is just something
about being there for the bride on her special day she’s dreamed about since
she was a child that makes my heart smile. It is my honor and privilege to work
with a bride and alleviate as much stress as possible and bring an aspect of
your "dream wedding" to life.I believe that life is constantly
evolving and I choose to evolve with it. I believe a Stylist or Makeup Artist
can never stop learning and bettering their skills. At the moment I am pursuing
my license in Permanent Cosmetics and I am also becoming certified in Eyelash
Extensions. I look forward to meeting you."
Nicole Boyle – Makeup
Artist/Stylist
"As a Makeup Artist I have the privilege of helping people look and feel
unbelievable about themselves, which to me, is most rewarding. I dove into
makeup at a very young age, sitting on my mother’s bathroom floor smearing
lipsticks and eye shadows on everything in reach including my face! As a teen I
started to experiment with different cosmetic lines, colors, textures, products
and really began to appreciate the power of makeup.
At 21, I moved to NYC to attend Make-Up Designory in SoHo, where I studied
Fashion Makeup Artistry. I had the opportunity to learn from many different and
talented artists. While in NYC I was lucky enough to work with amazing
professionals including photographers and models from top agencies like
Wilhelmina, Click, and Ford to name a few.
I have recently moved back to FL and I am enjoying every minute of working with
Jess and our clients. Working with brides is extra special. It gives me an
incredible feeling to know that I can be a part of a woman’s special day and
make her so happy with just the little time we spend together. Currently I am
also freelancing for M.A.C Cosmetics. I am so thrilled that I am able to share
my knowledge and passion for makeup with others. No matter how much or how
little makeup you use, it is important to introduce your personal style and, I
feel, it will always brighten your day!
