Beloved and Radiant Makeup Artistry, LLC

  • Team of 1
  • Starts at $360
  • Serves Charlottesville, VA

I am a passionate bridal and special event hair and makeup artist dedicated to making clients feel confident, radiant, and completely themselves on their most unforgettable day. With 8 years of experience in the industry, I specialize in creating timeless, elegant looks tailored to each client’s unique features, style, and vision. I offer a range of hair and makeup styles from natural to full glam, with most clients falling somewhere in between based on their personal preferences!

Abi from Beloved and Radiant Makeup Artistry was truly a gift on my wedding day. She did both my hair and makeup, and I can honestly say I have never felt more beautiful. Abi created a timeless, elegant look that made me feel like the most radiant bride in the world — classic, confident, and completely myself. Beyond her incredible talent, Abi brought a comforting, uplifting presence, and genuine joy into that morning that meant so much to me. My mother had passed away unexpectedly just two months before the wedding, and her absence left a deep ache in my heart. Abi filled that space with so much kindness and genuine care. She made me feel seen, supported, and at peace — as though I had a dear friend by my side. She created a space where I felt safe to be vulnerable and still experienced laughter and peace amid all the emotion. Not only did she make me feel beautiful on the outside, but she also helped me feel radiant within — something I will never forget. I can’t recommend Abi and Beloved and Radiant Makeup Artistry enough. Her talent, kindness, and heartfelt presence made my wedding day truly special.

We were able to do a trial run, and he did a fantastic job making alterations where needed for the ceremony look. Everything held up perfectly, and I felt natural and beautiful! Rhett made conversation with each of us but was calm, easy-going and focused the whole morning. Rhett delivered beautiful looks for all of us, and he was so fun to hang out with!

Makeup by Kiley Smith

  • Serves Charlottesville, VA

As a former musical theatre performer in the NYC/NJ area, I loved makeup—the cakey, heavy stage looks, not as much.. That inspired me to pursue my passion for natural, skin-forward artistry for beauty, bridal, film, and television. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve honed my craft under the guidance of industry greats including Kristina Gasperas andTerri Tomlinson, among others. My work has been featured on respected platforms such as Washingtonian Weddings, Washington Family Magazine, the Emmy Awards (Capital Region), NASA, DCW50 (Washington DC’s CW Network), Everyday Wealth with Soledad O’Brien and Jean Chatzky, and Miss Virginia Teen USA,

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW! Kiley absolutely blew me away with the look she was able to achieve for my wedding. As a no-makeup girlie, I was quite nervous to wear any on the big day and not feel like myself. Her consultation process is extensive because her attention to detail on every wish you want is spot-on. I told her I wanted a bit of pop of color possibly on my lips but overall just wanted to enhance my beauty with soft pink tones. I highly, highly recommend doing the trial session first because it helped us realize what colors looked good on me and how much makeup I actually wanted on. She is an expert at applying individual fake lashes which 1) helped me not bleed mascara down my face when I cried and 2) looked stunning without looking unnatural! After the trial, I emailed her some of my thoughts and she executed my vision perfectly on the actual day. She also made my mother and maid of honor look absolutely gorgeous; we all felt so confident and beautiful all day long! Most of all, she was just such a sweet presence the day-of and the whole planning process. I am so incredibly appreciative of Kiley's artistic gift and cannot recommend her enough!!!
