About Us

Meet the talented visagistes behind your transformation

Our Story

Meadow Bridgeway was founded in 2015 by Emma Richards, a makeup artist with over 15 years of experience in the beauty industry. What began as a small, one-woman operation has blossomed into a team of skilled visagistes, each bringing unique expertise and artistic vision to our clients.

Our philosophy is simple: makeup should enhance your natural beauty, not mask it. We believe that everyone deserves to feel confident and radiant, and our personalized approach ensures that each client receives a look that complements their unique features and personal style.

Over the years, we've had the privilege of working with hundreds of brides, editorial campaigns, celebrities, and everyday clients seeking to elevate their makeup skills. Our work has been featured in leading publications, and our reputation for exceptional service continues to grow.

Based in our boutique studio in Megan, we serve clients throughout the United Kingdom, bringing our expertise to special events, photoshoots, and personal consultations.
