i am pretty dramatic

I'm Sam - the face behind Pretty Dramatic. I'm a mobile makeup artist in Phoenix with a passion for creativity, color, and helping people feel amazing in their own skin. My love for makeup started at a young age and it has led me to an amazing career.
​I graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in Film & Media Production, where I first fell in love with the art of storytelling through visuals—and yes, that includes the magic of makeup! Wanting to dive deeper, I continued my education at Make-Up Designory (MUD) in Burbank, California, where I learned all aspects of makeup artistry—from natural beauty to bold editorial looks and special effects.
​
I have had the privilege of working on many exciting projects, including LA Fashion Week, music videos, films and photoshoots. Whether I’m glamming up a bride, perfecting a red-carpet look, or creating something totally out-of-the-box, my goal is always the same: to make you look (and feel) absolutely incredible.
​
I'm a master makeup artist which means I'm skilled in all areas of makeup: special occasions and weddings, photography, live events, stage, television and film. ​And because I am a mobile makeup artist, I'm able to provide my services wherever you are - at home, at a wedding venue or on a film or photoshoot set.
