Another week of Featured Friday! This week I have the pleasure of introducing Kevan of Makeup by Kevan.
Kevan is a freelance makeup who specializes in custom wedding makeup. She has always had a passion for all things makeup and hair. Starting when she was a little girl she would paint her dolls nails, play in her mom’s makeup, and in high school she was the go-to-girl for her peers who wanted their eyeliner perfect, or that fun updo. After Kevan worked at MAC for 5 years, all around the DC area, she decided it was time to follow her love of bridal makeup and begin freelancing. Kevan’s work has been featured in numerous bridal blogs, films, TV and for private celebrity clientele.
Kevan’s best advice to a bride-to-be: Communicate! Letting people know your expectations for your big day is so crucial! Your vendors and your friends and family should know what to expect and what is expected of them. Far too many times I see brides being pulled in 12 different directions the day of her wedding. If you let people know what to be expected, they wont be asking you what they need to be doing every 5 minutes.
When I asked Kevan what her favorite thing about a wedding day is, she told me her favorite thing is seeing the bride watch all of her hard work come together as the big day unfolds. She loves seeing her enjoy the time getting ready with friends and family as the anticipation builds before walking down the aisle to say ‘I do’.
Like many of us, Kevan still faces a constant battle of balancing personal and professional life. Over the past year Kevan got married and finds that scheduling personal days is just as important as scheduling work days, in order for her & her husband to spend time together. I, too, find this to be helpful. If I don’t plan for personal days to spend with my family, I could go weeks without spending quality time with my hubby, amongst the crazy schedule of being a business owner and creative.
Kevan is based in Germantown, Maryland but services all of the DC/MD/VA area. She has also traveled to Eastern Maryland, Seattle Washington, Southern California and even Costa Rica for weddings.
