I'm the face and the brushes behind Vandyland Makeup. Based in Arkansas, I specialize in bridal and editorial glam that looks like you on your very best day. Never overdone, always undeniable.
Whether it's the biggest day of your life or a photoshoot that needs to make people pause, my work is rooted in the belief that great makeup should feel effortless, photograph beautifully, and last from first look to last dance.
"Catherine made me feel like the best version of myself on my wedding day. Every single person in my bridal party walked out glowing. I have never felt more beautiful."
Emma, Bride
"The makeup stayed flawless from first look to last dance. It genuinely looked like my skin — just luminous. Catherine is a dream."
Madison, Bride
"I booked Catherine for a branding shoot and the photos were unreal. She listens, she's calm, she makes you feel completely taken care of."
Lauren, Brand Founder
"My private lesson with Catherine was one of the best gifts I've ever given myself. I actually enjoy doing my makeup now."
Sarah, Consult Client

Makeup, for me, has always been about how it makes someone feel. It's in the way a bride exhales when she sees herself in the mirror for the first time...how the morning quiets, how her shoulders drop, how she smiles a little differently into the lens.
My approach is gentle, meticulous, and built on listening. I ask a lot of questions before the brushes come out: what you love about your face, what you've always wished someone would finally do for you, what makes you feel most like yourself. Then I build the look around that: your features, your skin, your light, your day.
I'm based in Arkansas and available to travel wherever your story takes you. I specialize in soft, skin-first glam for brides; clean, camera-ready looks for editorial; and the kind of polished evening makeup that holds through the whole party.
When I'm not on set or with a bride, you'll find me with my husband traveling, deep in a good book, or testing a new product obsessively so I can tell you whether it's worth it. Thank you for being here. I can't wait to meet you!
