I'm Gemima — the artist behind Gemé Artistry.
I'm a bridal and editorial makeup artist, and the founder of Gemé Artistry. I believe great makeup should feel like you, only more radiant — and hold up beautifully from the first photo to the last.
I started Gemé Artistry after years of doing makeup for friends, weddings, and photoshoots on the side while working in the beauty industry professionally. What began as a passion project became a full-time studio because of one simple realization: the moments that matter most — a wedding day, a campaign shoot, a big night out — deserve an artist who is calm, skilled, and fully present.
My approach is always skin-first. I take the time to understand your skin, your features, and your vision before a single product touches your face. Whether it's a soft, dewy bridal look or a bold editorial concept, every application is built with long-wearing, camera-ready formulas that hold up under real light — sunlight, flash, studio strobes, and everything in between.
I've worked with brides on their wedding mornings, creative teams on set, and clients getting ready for the nights that call for a little extra glam. Every appointment is unhurried and personal — I only take on a limited number of bookings so that every client gets my full attention and genuine care.
Quiet principles behind every application.
Skin first
Every look starts with skin prep. Makeup should enhance, never mask — and it should photograph as beautifully as it looks in person.
Calm on the day
Wedding mornings and shoot days are already full of moving parts. My chair is the one place things slow down.
Built to last
Long-wearing formulas and techniques that hold up through tears, dancing, and studio lights until the very last photo.
Genuine collaboration
Your vision, my technique. I listen first, then bring the expertise to get you there.
What makes me different?
01
Makeup that photographs as good as it looks in person.
Every look starts with proper skin prep — the right primer, the right formula weight, the right finish for your skin type. That is what keeps makeup looking fresh through twelve hours and a thousand flash photos.
- Skin prep tailored to your skin type and the season
- Long-wear, camera-tested formulas built for photography
- A finish that looks like skin, not a mask
Whether it's your wedding day, a shoot, or a night out — you deserve to feel like the best version of yourself.
I take on a considered number of bookings each month so every client receives depth, genuine attention, and real care. My goal isn't volume — it's exceptional artistry for the people and moments that matter most.
