Renee Doorly 

5.0

Richmond, VA
  • Starts at $400

I am a freelance hair and makeup artist offering on-site bridal hairstyling and makeup. My artistic approach stems from my time studying painting at VCU Arts. I’ve learned so much in my 6 years doing bridal styling and have loved every minute. From in-person and online workshops to learn from other artists in my community, I am always picking up new techniques and finding new inspiration. My style is natural but elevated. I love texture and romance.

Renee was such a blessing for our wedding! I wanted to do big, voluminous Hollywood waves and she knocked it out of the park! She took the time to make sure she really understood what I wanted, and when I asked to make some tweaks after the first trial she went above and beyond to make sure I was 100% happy! She absolutely killed it on our wedding day, from updos to curls, everyone looked amazing and lasted all day. People are still telling me how amazing my hair looked. On top of it all She’s such a sweet gentle person that everyone was so comfortable with. 10/10 recommended!

    Bridal beauty is my passion—and it all starts with great skin. With over 6 years of experience and more than 200 weddings under my belt, I’ve had the honor of making brides look and feel their most beautiful. My love for makeup naturally led me into esthetics, where I discovered a deep appreciation for the science behind radiant skin. Now, I offer full-service beauty, from personalized skincare treatments to flawless makeup, lashes, brows, full-body waxing, and spray tans—helping you glow from the inside out.

    I found Ashton while looking for someone to do my makeup for engagement pictures, and since that first appointment, I was hooked! Ashton does incredible work. I didn’t have a ton of inspiration pictures but after describing what I was looking for she executed my vision to a T. I trust her to take her time, use high-quality products, make sure I’m happy with the results and help me look like my best self! She’s also just a lovely human so I feel comfortable sitting in her chair for an hour.

    Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

Not to mention.. nine other of my bridesmaids! She is a true artist and really cares about her clients. She intentionally gets know their style and what they want to embody on their wedding day to make them feel the most beautiful! I highly recommend Kristin for your wedding!

    I had the most amazing experience with Wendy’s team on my wedding day. From our first communication, they were incredibly responsive, organized, and attentive to every detail. Due to an incredible life surprise, we had to postpone our wedding. Lucky for me, they were available on our postponement date. Since day one, Wendy has been exceptionally kind, supportive, and understanding. I definitely dropped the ball on scheduling my trial, but Jinay made sure I got it done. She and Emely made me feel like my best self before the big day. There wasn’t a doubt in my mind that I chose the best team out there. They truly took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life beautifully — my hair and makeup were flawless, natural, and lasted perfectly through every moment of the day. Beyond their amazing skill and artistry, they were such a joy to be around. Their positive energy made the day so enjoyable and helped set the perfect tone. My bridal party and I all felt confident and radiant thanks to their work. I can’t recommend them highly enough to any bride looking for talented, reliable, and genuinely wonderful artists
