i believe
makeup isn’t about changing the way someone looks but rather how a person feels
My job as a makeup artist is to meet you where they are comfortable while providing you with a look that highlights your unique features and gives you the confidence for all of the special days in your life.
I'm probably not what you expect when you think of a makeup artist.
If you're expecting an artist who shows up high heels, I'm probably not your girl.
You see, I love and appreciate a good glam moment but my go-to look is comfy clothes and glowing skin to allow me to reserve my energy to put into my clients.
More often than not, you'll find me rocking recycled day old hair and sporting the no makeup makeup look. 90% of my life is spent wearing comfy clothes.

a little about me
I started Hey Girl Beauty Co. to combine my love of art and happy people
but it's been a little bit of an adventure to get here
2008
graduated with a photo degree
Shot my first wedding and a few years later landed a job at a professional photo printing lab working customer service and eventually producing professional photo products.
2014
married my college sweetheart, adam
built our first home
welcomed our first fur baby, berkley
0/10 - would not recommend building a house and planning a wedding in the same year. But we survived!
2016
joined adam hommerding photography
I joined Adam part time in his photo studio, Adam Hommerding Photography, where we work together photographing high school seniors and families.
2019
added another fur child, zoey
attended multi-media makeup school
hey girl beauty co. was born
After years of working for someone else, I was excited to create a business of my own to combine my love for art and people doing professional makeup + hair!
currently
winning at life.
Most days... this business owner thing is hard work, but I’m loving every minute of it!
