THE OCCASIONS COLLECTIVE

Shannon Foster

My name is Shannon Foster and I’m a self employed, professional makeup artist with 5 years experience.

I started out doing makeup looks on myself and friends, just for fun, and quickly discovered my passion for makeup and being creative. I knew this is what I wanted to do as my career!

I spent countless hours practicing and attending courses to see my vision become reality and so this is where it all began! Over the years, I’ve had the privilege to paint countless brides faces for their special day, work with incredible brands and teach and empower others to build their confidence.

I specialise in soft glam for all occasions including weddings, events and proms. My true passion lies in doing wedding makeup – it’s incredibly rewarding when someone trusts me to be apart of their big day. I love that with my job, I can make someone feel confident and beautiful.
