Doing what I love most!! I love being able to still create art even though I don’t draw and sketch like I used to in high-school and college. Majoring in fashion merchandising and interior design while minoring in art gave me so many skills that transferred to makeup artistry. The softness of my bridal looks comes from the sketching background, where seeing undertones and coordinating color ties in to my color theory classes and interior design. Fashion merchandising instilled the dedication to always look professional while on location for makeup jobs, which is vital when being photographed with the bride as I am here. I never intended on being a makeup artist, but that is the direction God lead me and I’m so thankful for it.

Thank you @emilydevillephotography for capturing this!! You are an incredible photographer! by @samanthapindermakeup

Makeup Artistry wasn’t the intended destination but I’m so thankful to be getting to do something I’m extremely passionate about. We don’t always have it all figured out and it’s ok to change courses as your season of life changes. It’s never too late to take a leap of faith on a passion, God’s given it to you for a reason. #samanthapindermakeup #airbrushmakeupartist #bridalmua #makeupartist #softglam by @samanthapindermakeup

Thank you to all my beautiful brides for choosing me for your special day. I’m so honored and blessed to have been a part of it! #bridalmakeupartist #bridalmakeup #bride #weddingmakeup #weddingmakeupartist by @samanthapindermakeup

Beautiful Hollie for family pic glam! She wanted something super soft and natural and nothing over the top for her family/maternity session with her other two babies and husband. We did just that and kept it neutral. Hollie has been a long time client of mine and I adore getting to catch up with her and be a part of her special milestones. Thanks for choosing me as your artist Hollie!! by @samanthapindermakeup

Loved dolling these girls up for Hoco 2026!!! Such fun looks! It's crazy how trends change so fast, I got request for minimal pink blush but wanted the dramatic eyes! I loved all of their transformations as did they. I hope they had the absolute best time at their HoCo dance!!!! #hocomakeup #hocodance #samanthapindermakeup #transformation #glam by @samanthapindermakeup

Enjoyed dolling up this beautiful wedding party at @lasavoiefrenchfarmhousewedding wedding venue in Beaux Bridge, Louisiana. Lauren made the most GORGEOUS bride and I was so honored to be a part of her special day. Aeryn came to help me out by applying the lip stain and lashes for each girl while I was the main artist for every face. This saves me so much time and allows me to do more people in a shorter amount of time.
The venue was absolutely stunning and I loved the French vibe it had. There was so much natural light coming in from the windows in the bridal suite that I didn’t even need my ring light which is a makeup artist’s dream! #bridalmakeup #bridalmakeupartist #beforeandaftermakeup #BridalPartyGlam #samanthapindermakeup by @samanthapindermakeup

Beautiful bridal party for Rebecca’s wedding at the @dunleithhistoricinn in Natchez,MS. I actually did the sister’s makeup, Grace, 10 years ago for her wedding day. It was such an honor to be a part of the same family’s special day a decade later. It was such a beautiful venue!! Congratulations once again Rebecca! You made an absolute stunning bride! #samanthapindermakeup #bridal #bridalmakeup #softglam #bridalmua by @samanthapindermakeup

As a professional makeup artist, my job is to collaborate with you to create the perfect makeup look for your wedding day. I want to understand your likes, dislikes, and vision, then bring it to life while thoughtfully considering the tones, colors, and overall aesthetic of your day.

I believe we’re there to do more than apply makeup—we’re there to guide, direct, and envision the finished look as a whole. From your dress and florals to the colors of your wedding party, every detail helps shape a look that feels intentional and beautifully cohesive.

Because when you look back at your wedding photos, I don’t want you to see just your makeup. I want you to see the beauty of your entire day and how seamlessly it all came together.

Because it’s never JUST makeup. It’s the experience, the artistry, and the intention behind it all. 🤍
