'I had the great pleasure of meeting and working with this young lady for the first time today.
We were both working with a model who put up a casting for a Mermaid shoot, so Niki did the makeup (And a great job of it to), whist i did the photography.
Right from the off, the conversation just flowed, and we all just got straight into the shoot.
I loved Niki's attention to detail. As we were shooting, she would jump in to sort something out with the models costume or makeup if required, which meant that this was an area i didn't need to worry about as much as i usually would.
I'm glad to say that she is providing the makeup for a shoot I have next week, and i'm looking forward to having the opportunity of working with her again.
Great work all round, and highly recommended'

'Met the lovely Niki today and was privileged to have her apply my face and body paint for a creative mermaid shoot. She was punctual, creative, fun, friendly, professional and her work is top rate and impressive. She also contributed lots of great ideas and help with getting the most from poses. She was a joy to work with and I'd definitely recommend her!'

'I worked with Nikki recently, she painted me all in gold paint which made me look a bit like C3PO off Star Wars
Nikki was a pleasure to work with and on hand to touch up the paint on areas. Nikki also has a great sense of humour, which always adds a great atmosphere to a shoot.
I highly recommend this lady

'Worked with Niki for the first time after a recommendation from a model on the PP site. Pre comms before the shoot were second to none and her advice with what was needed for the shoot was invaluable as it involved body painting which I had not worked on before.
Niki turned up early and straight away I found her to be very friendly and chatty. I showed her a mood board and she seemed very eager to make sure we got the right results when it came to the body painting.
Niki got to work straight away when the models were ready and when the painting was finished it was clear to see that she knew her stuff. The models looked exactly how I visioned and the effect on the final images was awesome.
Niki kept an eye open during the shoot and jumped into action every time she saw a touch up was needed with no direction from me needed. very impressive!
If you need a good body painter this is the one you need! 100% recommended!
Well done and thank you Niki! 10/10.'

'I was painted by Niki last week for a full day body paint shoot (working duo with Darren S) for Sean Munro. She is a lovely friendly artist, and very professional to work with. She was on time to the shoot despite travelling up to Bucks from Brighton, which is impressive. She painted us both carefully and it came out exactly as we had hoped (metallic silver and gold all over), and she kept touching the paint up throughout the day when Darren and I kept wiping holes in her work! I heartily recommend working with her, you wont be sorry!'

'I had the opportunity to work with Niki on a recent fashion show. The group of models she worked on had superb looking creative makeup which accentuated the latex outfits the models wore.
Great ideas and lovely to work with, hopefully we will get another chance to work together.
Highly Recommended.'

'Wow what can I say about Nikis makeup?!
She did 3 complete looks for the fashion show and was so accommodating to changes that happened before the show. Allowing me to use her make up models in my catwalk. Niki incorporated the style and colours of my latex garments I produced into her makeups and they all looked amazing! I was very grateful we could collaborate at the fashion show.
Looking forward to more collaborations and seeing some photos of the event!

'My first time I've worked with Niki and wow. Excellent pre-coms together so we knew what we were doing the moment we walked into the studio. I felt comfortable around Niki and able to trust her to turn my ideas into a master piece. I would highly recommend Niki to anyone, we had three different looks to get through and we made it with time to spare. Even while working so hard we still managed to have a good laugh. She's just wonderful and an experience you can't miss out on when working with her
I will definitely be working with her again. Highly recommended. '

'Niki is such a talent and a lovely lady - what more could you want?!
Niki and I worked together on a beauty shoot (ready for Halloween ), she lined up a fantastic photographer and had awesome ideas about the look.
Her attention to detail and obvious talent showed from the moment Niki started to apply my makeup, we worked on a dark beauty look and chatted through out the process we also used materials such as liquid latex which I wasn't familiar with, great to work with an imaginative mua who also checks if you are OK with going all out - and I totally was
I would recommend Niki to anyone, she's just amazing 110% recommended, can't wait to shoot again!!'

'I worked with Niki on a charity shoot full body latex and makeup shoot and I was amazed at the quality and speed of her work, I have worked with a number of MUA's on similar style shoots, and Niki produced high quality work from scratch (only using hand techniques and no air brushed etc) in half the time I have known other MUA's produce work. Before the shoot, Niki was a great communicator and during the shoot she was jovial and pleasant, I cannot recommend Niki highly enough and hope to work with her in the not too distant future. '

'Fantastic Make-up artist and creative... Great communication before the shoot and she worked quickly and carefully! Very personable and fun to work with! We got some beautiful images I am really happy with! Definitely recommend Niki very highly. I think that with her ambition and determination and creativity she will go really far. Look forward to hopefully working together again soon!
