I am so glad that Michael did my hair and makeup and my maid of honour's hair and makeup. I rarely do my makeup, so was worried about looking overdone. I shouldn't have worried! Myself and my maid of honour looked natural and flawless. Our hair and makeup held up late into the night. Thank you Michael!

Amazing job! I looked just as I imagined in my wedding day.! Thank you so much for your quality and professionalism and awesome team. Notice my hair and make up in the two first pictures after many hours after the ceremony and reception. It’s perfect! I did not want it to take it off!

I feel so lucky to have had Michael as my bridal hair and make-up stylist for my wedding. Michael did such an incredible job, making sure that everything was done patiently, to perfection in a timely manner! Thank you so much Michael!

Michael is SO incredibly talented and skilled at what he does. Wow! He took the vision I had for hair and makeup for my wedding and brought it to life tenfold. He is extremely easy to work with and made sure everything went smoothly. He listened to every detail I wanted, gave really great advice on how to achieve the hair style I was after, came prepared and on time for both the hair and make up trial and on my wedding day (in fact he made sure to be early!), and was SO much fun! He brought such a positive, calm, and fun loving energy, which I am so grateful for! The bridal look Michael created for me was nothing short of magical. I felt so incredibly pretty, but not overdone or overly made up. It held up great throughout the night, despite being rained on at some points! I don’t know what kind of magic Michael has in that hair and make up bag of his, but I’m so happy he brought it for my wedding day. Thank you x1000000 for everything! - Marisa M

Michael was a pleasure to work with. As a COVID bride trying to plan a wedding from another city, I couldn't have asked for a better person to guide me on my journey. These are the highlights for me: - Michael is prepared. He is so knowledgable in makeup, wedding makeup, what to expect on the day of the wedding, self-care, skin-care... he's thought of everything I would never think of in preparation for the big day. - Michael communicates very well. It's like he sets up notifications for different check-in points leading up to the wedding. I never had to reach out to him, he was always the first to reach out to me and help me out. - He's just a pleasure to talk to. Michael listens. He sincerely wanted to learn about me, about my goals, and he wanted to collaborate with me to find a direction that suited my personality. I really appreciated that since I'm someone who never wears makeup. - Michael follows up. He totally made sure the ball wasn't dropped and that I was ready for everything coming - I felt less nervous with his guidance! The artists that worked with me and my bridal party were Beatrice and Kareena. They were both on time and showed up with such positive energy - they were so natural for us to be around and we had a great time. They were both organized and efficient as well. Kareena did makeup and hair for the bridal party and everyone looked gorgeous. Thanks Kareena! Beatrice worked on my bridal makeup and I can't thank her enough for how in love with my own face I was! She listened to every adjustment I wanted to make, she came with suggestions that I sincerely loved, she was so open to change, being flexible and trying things out. The best compliment was my husband at the end of the day saying, "You looked stunning. You looked like yourself." Thank you so much Beatrice! Overall everyone at Michael Fels Beauty including Michael were such a joy to work with. I didn't have to worry about anything. I knew they were thinking about all the details that I might have overlooked (how will makeup look in edited photos? how will makeup look in natural light? how can we make the look last? Here, have this touchup kit! etc. etc.) and I completed trusted them through the process. Thanks Michael, Beatrice and Kareena!

Michael and his team at Michael Fels Beauty were truly wonderful to work with, and I'm so happy that I chose them for my makeup services for my wedding this past June. I found Michael through a Google search, and his website immediately resonated with me and from our first conversation I had a good vibe, and there after they exceeded my every expectation. Michael was communicative, responsive and well organized. I truly felt he understood what I was seeking. He helped to find the perfect artist match for me, and Kareena did an outstanding job for myself, mother and maid of honour. She truly helped to set the tone for an amazing day and I received many compliments on my makeup and felt so natural glam. A big thank you, to Michael & his team!!

Michael was absolutely amazing! He made the entire process extremely smooth. I had emailed him in search for makeup and hair for my wedding. He responded quickly and his emails were so detailed! We then had a phone conversation and he asked me all the right questions. The makeup was absolutely beautiful and lasted the entire night in the heat! I generally don't wear too much makeup on a daily basis and he made me look natural but also glamed up at the same time, truly a talent. My hair was also very natural and he was so talented in making my beautiful beach waves! He was very professional and I had a lovely time chatting with him. I've recommended others to him and will definitely be in touch in the future should any other events occur :) thank you so much! You made me feel so beautiful on such a special day and I'm so happy you could be apart of it. Thank you!! - Heidi B

Michael is amaaaaaaazing!! As a wedding photographer I've had the privilege of working with him at two weddings now and both of my brides looked amazing all day long! I would recommend him in a heartbeat. He is also just wonderful company to have in the room. His Covid protocols were top notch as well and he is incredibly professional to correspond with. Hire Michael! He will bring out your natural beauty with make up that lasts all day.

Michael was my hair and makeup artist for my wedding in September 2020 and made the experience so fun! As a black woman, it was important to me to find someone who was confident working with curly hair and had experience with doing makeup on a variety of skin tones and I felt immediately comfortable. I had my hair done slightly differently to my trial and Michael was willing to be flexible and work this out. Highly recommend!

I've had the pleasure of working with Michael for many years and he is by far one of my favourite makeup artists to have in my studio. Ever. Not only does his work speak for itself -- stunning, effortless and beautiful -- but his personality and charisma is what makes a shoot fantastic. Michael has a way of making every client feel special, powerful and gorgeous from the inside out. Plus his attention to details makes every image beyond fabulous. Hiring Michael for any event/shoot will make it 10 times more enjoyable. Trust me!

Everything from Michael's artistry and professionalism is unparalleled. I have hired Michael for a variety of different shoots, ranging from a light headshot look, to a full fashion glam look. I have absolutely no problem recommending him to my friends - and they always thank me that I did. Michael has become an asset to my team!

I've worked with Michael on a number of occasions for head shot and personal portrait photography sessions. I've always been very impressed with the care and attention Michael shows to every client. Most of my clients are in 40+ age group and I know that I can trust Michael to take his time to get to know my clients, and work with them to craft a make up look that is a refined and naturally beautiful version of themselves. Many of my clients have gone on to work with Michael on subsequent projects which is a testament to his skill and work ethic. I also appreciate the effort Michael has put into making me and my clients feel safe with his implementation of Covid protocols. I highly recommend Michael to any other photographers or potential clients.

I hired Michael for one of my photography clients by finding him on his website and talking to him I knew right away that he was the right fit. Michael was so friendly, professional, easy to talk to, and knowledgeable about his craft. I knew I was in the right hands. He communicated with me every step of the way to the shoot day and made the client feel comfortable and cared for. Not only that, but his skills are out of this world and he went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Michael if you're looking for a hair and makeup artist!! You won't be disappointed.

Great experience! I requested that my make up looked natural but showed up in pictures. That's exactly what I got! Michael was so easy to talk to, he made getting ready stress free by following the plan we created at the make up trial. I was so happy to have him join my friends and I getting ready for the special day. Michael gave me a little touch up kit that was super convenient. I only applied the lips once after dinner and had lots extra. I loved my lashes and blush the best! My photos were amazing and I got so many complements. I truly felt beautiful!

Had the opportunity to book Michael last month to give me a drag makeover and let me tell you. Any CDs like myself who are looking to take their look to the next level and learn quality makeup tips, Michael is the man to book! I was left speechless with seeing the final result. Trust me, it is totally worth it to book with him. His communication is incredible as well, when booking the makeover. No hassle whatsoever, you provide him with some ideal looks that you'd like to see, and he works with that and makes your dreams come true. He's got a customer for life in me and you should consider booking him for the makeup experience you won't forget. Thank you, Michael! -Gigi

Michael did amazing as a makeup artist and hair stylist on my wedding day! My makeup was natural, but I had great coverage and my eyes popped 💗 He was very informative about my hair needs and gave advice about certain updos for my hair. My hair was amazing and stayed up almost all night! He was also professional, flexible and friendly. All the things you want in a Bridal MUAH artist!
