Portrait with soft natural makeup and warm light

Makeup Artist

Elena Moreau

Soft-focus beauty for weddings, editorials, and evenings worth remembering.

About

Makeup that feels like you — only clearer.

I am Elena Moreau, a freelance makeup artist working with brides, creatives, and private clients across New York. My approach is skin-first: build luminosity, then finish with color that reads beautifully both in person and on camera.

Trained in Paris and based in Brooklyn, I keep a quiet, collaborative chair — listening first, then refining until the look feels inevitable rather than applied.
