I was really nervous during my first boudoir shoot too! My days off are spent with my daughter, Zoe, and most anything outdoors or on my bike. I make sweet potato fries pretty much daily, and can be known to start random dance parties.

I can’t wait to meet you!

Professional Hair & Makeup

Hi! I’m a 22 year old traveling makeup artist. My professional journey began immediately after high school, I attended Paul Mitchell The School and received my Cosmetology license. I have been in the beauty industry for 5 years, I have loved makeup for as long as I can remember. I was a very shy girl growing up and makeup was my form of self expression. I’m self taught through trial and error; practicing on myself, friends, and family. 

To me, makeup is more than a job. It’s about being able to empower individuals, helping bring out people’s inner beauty. I love having a role in the boost of confidence my clients get after seeing themselves all glammed up. 

Outside of doing makeup I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, trying new foods, and reading!

Professional Hair & Makeup

Well hello friends, welcome! My name is Susie Castilone, if you’re here, hopefully it means you have an amazing boudoir shoot coming up! I am a Sacramento native, a wife and mother of two 2 sweet boys and a wild bulldog named Dak (where my bulldog people at!) I have done hundreds of weddings and dedicated 12 years of my life to working for MAC, I managed with their brand, was an artist, and was working weddings on the side “for fun” when I realized “Why not have this much fun on your own?” BEST. DECISION. EVER. If I’ve ever been blessed to do your makeup, you probably already have heard me say how much I love my job, and love being a part of your biggest day with all your loved ones! If I haven’t been blessed to do your makeup yet, I hope to in the future and looking forward to meeting you!

Outside of doing makeup, I am a wife to my best friend Joe and boy mom to Easton and Cannon. A dog mom to my stubborn bulldog. I love snacking, frolicking with friends, working out, anything that makes me laugh, and eating a lot of gummi bears
