Hillary Fay

Owner & Lead Makeup Artist

Welcome! My name is Hillary, I am the owner & lead makeup artist for Hillary Fay Studios (formerly Hillary Fay Freelance MUA).  I specialize in on location bridal makeup/ hair, elopements, editorial, and more all across Vermont, New England, Florida & beyond. My primary focus (and true love) is bridal work. My goal on your wedding day is to create a fun, relaxed, organized, and refreshing environment, all while still providing a luxury experience for you. I take pride in customizing each look so that you feel confident, comfortable, and beautiful. Skin prep to setting spray, I use some of the best professional products on the market. 

I frequently work with destination couples, so if you have chosen Vermont or Florida as your destination wedding location, I'm happy to help make the booking process smooth, even from states away! 

About me: I was born and raised in the beautiful state of Vermont, and found my passion for makeup during my teenage years. Outside of makeup, I enjoy: Hiking, wine tastings, craft beer adventures, horseback riding, and spending time with my fur-kids (two dogs & two cats) and boyfriend.  I look forward to learning more about you!
