Hi, I’m Chelsea
but you can call me Chels
What began as a girl watching YouTube makeup tutorials in 2013 has grown into a thriving beauty business over a decade later and the foundation of it all is my faith in Jesus.
Everything I do flows from that place. It shapes how I run my business, how I serve my clients, and how I show up every day. While I love being a bridal makeup artist, my identity isn’t found in what I do, it’s rooted in who I am: a daughter of the Most High King.
With over 12 years of experience in the wedding industry, I’ve had the honor of serving countless brides through one of the most meaningful days of their lives. For me, it’s never just about makeup, it’s about creating a peaceful, intentional experience where you feel fully cared for.
Alongside makeup, I also work as a wedding photographer, so I understand the importance of timelines and the flow of a wedding day. I prioritize starting early and staying ahead, so you can feel calm, present, and stress-free while also respecting the rest of your vendors.
When I’m not with my brides, you’ll find me creating content online - sharing makeup tutorials, faith-filled encouragement, and reminding women of their true beauty: that they are fearfully and wonderfully made. I’ve also had the honor of partnering with brands like Good Molecules, Merit Beauty, Covergirl, and Fenty Beauty.
Outside of work, I’m a 2026 bride - so I truly understand what it feels like to be in your shoes during this season. My fiancé and I love Jesus and serve together on our church’s prayer team, which is such a special part of our lives.
Our home is full of life (and a little chaos!) with four cats and one very large, very lovable 115 lb pit bull - there’s never a dull moment around here.
I’m a big believer in balance. After seven years working at Starbucks, I’ve traded in the caffeine but still love a good treat - you’ll usually find me with a decaf iced white chocolate lavender latte with almond milk or an iced almond milk chai. I’m passionate about health and fitness and live a mostly gluten-free lifestyle, but I’m also all about the 80/20 rule… because life is meant to be enjoyed.
I’m proudly Latina - my mom is from Mexico and my dad is from Seattle - and I’m fluent in Spanish. Music is always playing in the background, usually a mix of Forrest Frank, Maverick City, Benson Boone, or the Jonas Brothers (forever a Joe girl even if he can’t parallel park).
At the heart of it all, I truly love what I do. Getting to serve brides, celebrate love stories, and help women feel confident, beautiful, and seen - it’s something I’ll never take for granted.
Why HARVEST?
The name “Harvest” comes from a story in Mark 4 where Jesus talks about a farmer who continues to faithfully plant even though he doesn’t know when his crops will come to a harvest. With God, some things take time to grow well but you can always expect that the harvest will be abundant.
God has shown me that businesses operate very similarly to the process of growing a harvest from seed to fruit and the whole process is very intentional. It matters what types of seeds you’re planting, where you plant, how you plant, how you nurture the growth and prune what isn’t working.
This system has allowed me to scale my business and work with the most incredible clients and be able to provide the luxury experience they deserve.
As a bridal makeup artist, doing makeup is my everyday but for my brides, having their makeup bridal makeup done is a once in a lifetime experience and they only deserve the best.
