2018: A Year In Review

It was an incredible year filled with beautiful brides, celebrities and commercial/corporate shoots that earned us some awards and a spot in the Boston Wedding Group!

The Boston Wedding Group (BWG) is a vetted organization made up of Boston’s best wedding professionals and they chose us to be one of the three makeup artists in their group!

We’ve truly enjoyed getting to know the BWG members and networking with the best in Boston weddings.

In addition to joining this spectacular organization, we also won a couple of industry awards!

We received the 2018 Couples’ Choice Award from WeddingWire and were named Boston’s Best Makeup Artist by Boston Magazine!

The industry recognition that we’ve received this year has been unbelievable. However, we know it wouldn’t be possible without our incredible clients.

That’s why, it’s the moments we’ve shared with all of them that matter most.

Danielle was absolutely thrilled with how we styled her hair and said that no one’s ever made her hair look so good. THAT is what we live for!

We’re so grateful to do what we love while making others look and feel their best. We’re thrilled with all we’ve accomplished in 2018 and look forward to another wonderful year!

It's A Movie Star Summer For Maryelle Artistry

Comedies, dramas and documentaries… it’s been a summer full of movies for our team!

Starting with the Book Club back in May, Maryelle worked behind the scenes with Mary Steenburgen to promote the film.

These two men were childhood friends who are now staring in their own movie!

Blindspotting Maryelle Artistry

They were in Boston to promote Blindspotting and we were on site to make sure they looked their best!

However, these actors are more than just good-looking. They are talented, down to earth and genuine guys who we adore!

We wish them all the best on their new movie and encourage everyone to go see the Book Club, Generation Wealth, The Spy Who Dumped Me and Blindspotting before the summer ends!

They're an inspiration! They've showed us all where talent and determination can take you!

Super Troopers Group Maryelle Artistry .jpg

Back in 2001 these five men, who make up the comedy troupe called Broken Lizard, created the cult classic, Super Troopers. It was a low budget film that did well in the box office but not enough to excite any major studios.

However, the troopers knew their fans wanted more. So, after years of trying to make a sequel the men turned to the public for funding. Within 24 hours they raised 2 million dollars on a crowd funding website. In 30 days they had 4.7 million dollars and were back on the job!

Our team learned, laughed and were so lucky to work with this guys over a two day period from Boston to Vermont. It was so much fun that even the window washer wanted a part of the action!

So, we'd like to thank these guys for allowing us to be part of their journey and wish them all the luck in the world on their new movie!

Maryelle Artistry: A Friend and Fan of the New England Patriots

As we get ready to cheer on our home team in Super Bowl LII, we’re taking a moment to look back and be grateful for the countless times we’ve gotten to know the New England Patriots on a more personal level.

We’ve been at Gillette Stadium to get Bob Kraft ready for interviews in the locker room…

and in his box seats!

We’ve even been to Kraft’s house to get celebrities like, Katie Nolan, glammed up before the Super Bowl LI ring ceremony.
