I’m Emma, thank you for having a look at what I do!
For over a decade I have been fortunate enough to work with lots of amazing people, brands and companies.

Making people feel awesome is my absolute passion and to be able to do this in such a creative way, by using make-up and hair styling, is what I really love about my career.

As I am based in the heart of England in Derby, it is quite easy for me to travel all over the country.

I have always loved make-up and creating colourful, wild looks for photo shoots. I then started my professional journey at the beginning of 2010 where I took a make-up course in London. I worked with many talented photographers back in Derby and Nottingham and started building my portfolio whilst gaining experience. Three years later, I went back to college for another year to study a ‘Level 3 Diploma in Make-up Artistry’. Then, I went on to learn hair by completing my ‘Level 2 and Level 3 NVQ’s in Hairdressing’ and also trained as an ‘Airbase’ airbrushing make-up professional. I keep my skills updated by attending short courses regularly, such as ‘Advanced Barbering’ and ‘Bridal Styling’.

https://birchesandpine.com/I use professional high quality vegan, cruelty free products on my clients. I believe in giving everyone the very best service possible whilst looking after their skin with non-toxic make-up, skincare and hair products.

I feel extremely grateful to be doing something that I have loved my whole life. I now regularly work on films, music videos, photo shoots, and with many clients including lots of beautiful brides.
