How it Started...

Amanda is a professional makeup artist based out of Fort Worth, Texas. She began her career in the beauty industry in the early 2000’s graduating from Ogle Cosmetology School. In 2005 she worked as a makeup artist, managing prestigious brands such as Bobbi Brown and MAC Cosmetics. In 2017, she decided to pursue her dream of working with brides full time and SOUTHERN VEILS came to life. The rapidly growing business recently celebrated 5 years in the wedding industry, taking part in over 300 weddings as well 60+ publications including Brides of North Texas Magazine and The Brides of Houston. Amanda understands that every bride’s style is unique and the makeup should represent that. Her focus is timeless glamour, gorgeous photo-ready skin, and igniting her Bride with a “lit from within” glow from knowing that they look and feel their absolute best. This Fort Worth native spends her free time traveling cooking delicious food, and Netflix nights with her senior dog, Rocco.
