Where Kirsty started

Kirsty is a talented bridal and event makeup artist, but her DIY website didn't show it. In her words, it looked a bit preschool. There was no way to book online, so everything was done by hand.

It also kept bringing in people shopping for the cheapest price. People decide what you're worth before they message you, and her old site was setting the wrong price point while the bridal work she loves went elsewhere.

What we did

01

Repositioned the business around bridal and event work rather than makeup in general

02

Built a brand that looks the way her work looks, so the site stopped quietly undercutting her prices

03

Replaced the manual back and forth with a structured booking flow that captures what she needs upfront

04

Led with her real story, the performing arts training and the decade in fitness, because it explains how she works

What changed

The site now leads with bridal and event work, tells her real story, and turns booking into a guided flow instead of a manual back and forth. It presents her as the premium choice rather than inviting a price comparison.

A site built to present her as the premium choice, answer a bride's questions, and take bookings without a spreadsheet.

A website that decorates a business, or one that runs part of it.
