Hello! I'm Helen Hamilton...
Professional makeup artist and owner-founder of Whistler Wedding Makeup & Hair, offering fully mobile wedding makeup and bridal hair styling services across Whistler, Squamish and Pemberton. Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or have a large wedding party with bridesmaids and family all requiring beauty services, I come with an experienced team of professional hair and makeup artists based in Whistler, ready and available to get you all gorgeous and glam!
I bring over fifteen years of editorial makeup artist and hair experience from the UK to Whistler BC, with a career within London’s iconic fashion and beauty industry giving me invaluable makeup and hair styling skills that I now offer to Whistler and the Sea-To-Sky's vibrant wedding scene. I specialise in modern, radiant, fresh-faced styles from barely-there natural beauty looks to full Hollywood Glam.
​
I trained at London College of Fashion in the UK specialising in Fashion & Beauty Makeup and began my professional makeup career assisting celebrity makeup artist Jenny Jordan (Duchess of York, Lulu, Twiggy, Jade Jagger) before working as assistant to makeup artist Niamh Quinn (Vogue, Calvin Klein, Gucci) and international celebrity makeup artist Mary Jane Frost (Victoria Beckham, Kylie, Kate Moss, Georgia Jagger, Leona Lewis).
​
I've since worked in a variety of hair & makeup fields including high-end fashion, catwalk, music video, live music, short film, TV commercials and weddings and have been lucky enough to travel abroad with my makeup work to some amazing locations. I also have experience behind the lens as a photographer and a stylist.
After moving to Whistler in 2018 to pursue my passion for mountain sports, I was excited to find that I could continue my makeup & hair career right here in the mountains, as a wedding makeup artist and hair stylist in Whistler and the beautiful Sea-to-Sky corridor, BC. It's a dream come true. I'm excited to make your beauty dreams come true too! Get in touch today using the contact form below.

I'm very excited to now offer wedding bouquet preservation and framing services in Whistler - find out how to enjoy your flowers forever at Flora & Frame.
"My makeup stayed perfect for the full event, didn't feel too heavy and I felt like a glammed up version of myself!" - Kayti

" Helen was the makeup artist for my wedding & I honestly can't say enough good things about her. She was so easy to talk to and made you feel comfortable enough to communicate exactly what you wanted and achieve that perfect look.
Every single lady in my party was so happy with the looks she was able to create. My makeup stayed perfect for the full event, did not feel too heavy, and I felt like a glammed up version of myself. I highly highly recommend Helen! "

" Helen is simply the best! Her talent and experience are unmatched; she recreated my look with soft glam from pictures I sent her, perfectly matching my style. Despite having a lot of long hair, she ensured it stayed in place all day.
Her warm, engaging personality made getting ready a delightful experience. Spending time with Helen chatting and getting ready with hair and makeup was definitely among my favourite moments on my wedding day. "

" Helen did an amazing job with my wedding make-up. I cried all day and night from beautiful speeches and my makeup stayed put and looked as gorgeous after 12 hours as when she first did it (truly, we finished at 2 am). I cannot thank her enough for how beautiful I felt. And for making my mum, sister, sister-in-law, and mother-in-law feel beautiful too.
Helen was also such a wonderful person to work with and I am so so grateful to have had her there as part of my day. "
