CV.

With over a decade of experience, I work across Commercial, Corporate, Television, Film, Editorial & Theatre - bringing a distinctly editorial sensibility to every medium.

​

My work is driven by image, texture & narrative.  I am drawn to the subtle tension between natural skin & constructed beauty, between restraint & statement.  Whether shaping a clean, luminous look for Corporate campaigns or building character & mood for Film & stage, I approach each face as both canvas & collaborator.

​

With years on set & backstage I understand how makeup translates under HD scrutiny, in print & under theatrical lighting.  Skin remains central to my aesthetic: intentional, dimensional & alive.

​

I value collaboration with photographers, directors, stylists & production teams balancing creative vision with precision & professionalism.

"Kim was very easy to contact via email to organise makeup for my bridesmaids & despite changes being made closer to the date & being unable to go ahead with a trial beforehand due to us coming up from Lancashire for the wedding, she was still very accommodating.  On the day she made sure the bridesmaids looked beautiful and they were all very happy! Thank you for your services!"
