About Poppy

Poppy Mae Makeup Artist Herefordshire

My journey into the world of makeup began at a young age when I enrolled at Brushstroke Makeup Academy, where I completed a comprehensive two-year training course focused on all aspects of TV and film makeup. I graduated with a double distinction*.

During my time in London, I had the incredible opportunity to assist at my first wedding, and from that moment, I was hooked! I loved the buzz and excitement of a wedding morning and that feeling continues to inspire my work to this day.

Since then, I have been fortunate enough to actively engage in the television industry, recently contributing to a BBC series, while also cherishing the privilege of being part of countless wedding mornings. Each experience has further fuelled my love for makeup and the joy it brings to others on their special days. 

Most of my brides are based in the Three Counties but I regularly travel and cover the whole of the UK. I’m available for destination weddings, no distance is too far for my brides.

I recently renovated my studio, based in Herefordshire, which I’ve turned into a calm and relaxing space for my clients.

I feel honoured that I get to do something I love everyday! 

Kind words from past brides

  • "I booked Poppy for my wedding and she was amazing! When I met her for the first time at my trial she instantly made me feel at ease. She understood exactly what I wanted. She honestly made me and my bridesmaids feel like princesses on the day! And the make up lasted all night. Not only is Poppy amazing at what she does, she’s also lovely. 100% recommend."

  • "Can’t recommend Poppy enough! She did my makeup for my wedding in April along with 6 extras. She was so friendly and professional throughout and made everyone feel so comfortable. Thanks to her amazing skills I felt so beautiful and special and I know the other girls did too! If anyone is after a makeup artist for a wedding you will be so pleased to have Poppy."

  • "I couldn’t recommend Poppy any more. I only booked Poppy after postponing and losing my make up artist but the best change I made. The most lovely girl who is so incredibly talented. Poppy made myself and my bridesmaids look and feel absolutely incredible and also made my wedding morning so relaxed and fun. Thank you so much."
