Alexis A McKeown

I have worked with Linda several times, having her at my portrait studio to do makeup and hair for my clients, and I have been so pleased every single time. Linda is very professional, experienced, and fun to be around. She always asks my clients the right questions, and really listens to them when they answer. If they have questions for her about makeup or skincare products, she doesn't hesitate to share her extensive knowledge. Linda has a very warm, open personality which makes her super pleasant to be around. I love that she makes my clients feel pampered, relaxed, confident and beautiful - the perfect prep for their portrait session!

Linda is a very professional and experienced MUA and I am glad that she is available to do my bridal elopement make up. Her make up is beautiful in person and beautiful in pictures, not sure how she did this because typically it is either or. Just magic! She uses high quality make up and is punctual to both our appointments (trial and D-day). Additionally she also has this temptu airbrush make up capabilities that enables long lasting make up that is flawless while feeling like second skin - really love it. She also creates a look that complements your surroundings for example your flower color, scene etc. Super happy with her artwork thank you Linda!!????❤️

Linda is an established professional makeup artist servicing the Bow Valley. I have worked on location with her at weddings and photo shoots. Linda brings a wealth of cosmetic knowledge with a vast artistic ability to bring a face to life for the occasion. I have had the pleasure of having my makeup done by Linda for a period photoshoot and I was so happy with the results. She specializes in working with all skin types and has a great understanding of bringing your vision to life or creating a vision for you!

I had a great experience with Linda when she did my make-up for my wedding. I do not normally wear a great deal of make-up so I am always a bit nervous but Linda did a great job of making me feel at ease. Linda was able to fit me in for a trial with relatively short notice, when I dropped the ball on setting it up in advance. I loved the make-up, both in life and in the photos. Equally as important, Linda is kind and really nice to have around! I would recommend her to anyone!

I'm so glad I found Linda to do my wedding makeup. I showed her a couple of pictures I found on Pinterest during the makeup trial and requested for the natural look. She tried a few things on me but her makeup pigment was just a little too intense for me (I'm Asian with fair skin). She tweaked it a bit and it looked better but I still had some concerns especially after seeing myself in pictures that night. When Linda came back the next day, I told her about my concerns and she tweaked it exactly to how I wanted it. I'm so glad I did the makeup trial with her. I loved how my makeup turned out and it stayed on all day (9am-12am)! She's also very professional and fun to talk to! I don't usually write reviews but I really feel that Linda deserves this one. I highly recommend her. Thank you for everything Linda!

I had the most amazing experience with Linda! I asked her to do my makeup for a fitness photo shoot, but I also wanted a look that could cross over for a glamorous look as well. AND the makeup had to be suitable for shooting both indoors and outdoors! Linda's attention to every single little detail clearly shows her passion for what she does, and the end result is a true reflection of her talent as an artist. My photographer was thrilled with her work, and I couldn't be more happier with how my makeup turned out. Linda also ensured that my makeup complimented my spray tan. Linda also did my hair for this shoot and did exactly what I asked for! I would without a doubt hire Linda again for another photo shoot.

Linda did my wedding make up, it was amazing! I was really nervous about looking overdone as I don't usually wear makeup. Linda put my mind at ease and made me look great as well as natural! Linda was great both via email and in person, letting me change the time as needed. Didn't manage a trial run, but Linda created a perfect look for me on the day! Linda knows her job amazingly, and was able to create my makeup exactly how I wanted, without me even being able to tell her what I wanted! So impressed and happy, would recommend highly! Thanks Linda!

Linda was amazing on my wedding day!! She was punctual, professional and SUPER knowledgeable about makeup. She is truly a master of her work and made me feel like a goddess! My makeup lasted all day even when I was in windy and snowy conditions. Linda is passionate and made my whole morning getting ready fun. All 4 ladies who got their makeup done were impressed by her work. She was able to handle older and younger skin types. I would 10000000% recommend.

I choose Linda for our after wedding photo shoot ( since our wedding was out of province)! She was fun to work with and accommodating even though everything was last minute! But what I loved the most was my makeup! !!!!!! It was FLAWLESS and lasted for the entire duration of our shoot (8 hours)???? I would recommend her 100000 %! Xxxx
