Welcome to Makeup Art by Kate, the premier destination for all your makeup and hairstyling needs in Gippsland and beyond. I am Kate Murphy, a qualified makeup artist and hairstylist with over a decade of experience in the industry. I have had the privilege of working on a variety of projects, from independent films and music videos to advertising, TV commercials, and corporate shoots. However, it was my foray into bridal work that truly captured my heart, and I have spent the last seven years perfecting my craft in this specialised field.
My approach to makeup and hairstyling is highly personalised, and I believe that it is essential to collaborate with my clients to achieve their desired look. I am not here to tell you how you should look, but rather to enhance your natural beauty and help you feel confident on your special day. I take the time to get to know each of my clients, understanding their preferences, concerns, and vision for their wedding day. This collaborative process ensures that the end result is a true reflection of your individual style and personality.
