The Beauty Bat

hello, i'm tami
I am a professional freelance wedding and event makeup artist in the Denver, Colorado area. Despite originally pursuing a career with my psychology degree, I could not deny my decades long passion for makeup and graduated cosmetology with Dean's List and full honors at Paul Mitchell in Colorado Springs in 2019.
Don't let my personal style fool you-- what I love to create for others is very different from what I put on my own face. The majority of my brides and event VIPs prefer beautiful skin and neutral, shimmery eyes topped with eye-flattering lashes. Whether you're someone that does not wear a lot of makeup or a makeup lover who just wants to be pampered on their special day, I am excited to create your vision.

what is a
beauty bat?
As someone in the wedding business, it is no surprise that I love love. My husband's pet name for me, "honey bat," was the inspiration behind my possibly unconventional industry name. What was meant to be just a high school summer romance before he left for the Army turned into a long distance relationship years later, complete with handwritten letters. We had an intimate court ceremony in 2014 followed by a larger wedding for family and friends in 2016. Creating in the bridal space has allowed me to hear some amazing love stories, and I cannot wait to hear yours.
