There are certain moments in your career that stay with you.

Having the privilege of directing the opening show @van_ermel_scherer a few weeks ago for Australian Fashion Week 2026 was one of them @afcaustralianfashionweek

Seeing this show featured across so many respected publications and media outlets has been incredibly special, and something I’m so proud of 🥹

A beautiful reminder to back yourself, trust your vision, and keep saying yes to opportunities that push you forward 💛

What a moment. Incredible show with an incredible team 🥹

A little MIA on here lately… but very much still here 🤎

Just been busy doing what I love — in studio, on set, runway, bridal mornings, events… and quietly building something special behind the scenes and of course still based in Double Bay!
Glamming clients for all events, bridal, and everything in between — here, there, everywhere 🤎

Here’s a little glimpse of what we’ve been up to lately…
and a hint of what’s to come.

Almost a year later… and she’s STILL obsessed with her bridal makeup. @caitlessing 🤍

There’s something so special about receiving wedding photos from my brides months after their big day.

Caitlin recently sent me her beautiful wedding images, along with the words, “Still obsessed with my makeup!”

And this gorgeous Google review she left after her wedding makes it even sweeter.

“Kelly worked her magic and did my make up for my registry wedding! She did such an incredible job. Iv never seen my make up done so well. Her energy is amazing too! Will definitely be getting her to do my make up again 💕”- Caitlin

This is exactly what I want for every bride. Makeup that feels like you, photographs beautifully and that you still absolutely love looking back on.

2027 & 2028 brides, my diary is open! 🤍

Comment “Enquiry” to get access to enquiry form and my bridal prep guide 🩷🕊️

If you’re looking for timeless, elevated bridal makeup, I’d love to be part of your day.

I got asked to direct the makeup for the opening show Australian Fashion Week 26 a few months ago @afcaustralianfashionweek and said yes before I even knew what I was walking into!

I designed the makeup look, then executed it with my team.

And I made the call to sponsor the show with LAASH @laash.underline giving it its debut right there. 🥹
Every model who opened that show was wearing it. Something I’ve spent the last year creating.

This is the part I haven’t told you yet.
What a way to show the world @laash.underline before it’s even launched 🥹
More coming. 🤎

Pretty sure I won the destination job lottery with this one 😂🌴

A few weeks ago I was flown to Hayman Island for a luxury bridal editorial with @theweddingseries.co for The Love Story Magazine Destination Queensland launching this month 🌴

Day one was travelling ,settling in and doing a reccy of all the locations we’d be shooting the next day.

Not a bad way to start a job. 🥂

If you’re thinking of getting married here, stay tuned I’ll be taking you behind the scenes, including getting ready in the exquisite bridal suite at @ichaymangreatbarrierreef 🌺

The brief: Natural Glam 🤎

With deep-set eyes, I wanted to create definition without closing or overpowering the eye.

Rather than reaching for a strip lash, I customised the lash using short + medium individuals, placed strategically to open and softly lift the eyes.

Nothing too heavy and definitely not a one-size-fits-all lash

Just natural glam designed for my client and her unique features 🤎

POV: You’re getting a French model camera ready 🇫🇷

Behind the scenes from yesterday’s shoot with @corentin_vivier for @oxfordshop

Male grooming is also a service I offer whether it’s TV, stage, runway, in studio or your wedding day.

For me, it always starts with the skin. Prepped with @dermalogicaaus Calm Water spray & Calm Water Gel before any makeup touched his face, followed by subtle grooming to keep everything fresh, polished and completely natural on camera.

And yes… he made my job pretty easy. 🤍

Watch the final result
