MEET THE WOMEN BEHIND THE VEIL

The Team.

JENNIFER SAUNDERS | HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTIST

  • “My favorite hair and makeup styles are romantic, rustic, and bohemian. I love bringing our client's vision to life!! “

    Hi, I am Jennifer, the Owner and Lead Hair and Makeup Artist at The Veil. I have always been an artist since drawing with chalk on the sidewalk as a child. Painting and illustration are something I have always thrived in.

    I have a graphic design degree from AI that definitely helped me find my way into my favorite mediums, makeup and hair styling!

    I thrive in a setting filled with people and love sharing in on our bride’s day! I love meeting their friends and family, and I feel honored to share such a special time with our clients.

    I continue to learn and grow to stay on trend and give brides a look they hope for. My favorite hair and makeup styles are romantic, rustic, and bohemian. I love bringing our client's vision to life!! 

SADE TAYLOR | HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTIST

  • "Above all, I love my job and traveling to meet incredible people.”

    Hi, I’m Sade! One of the Lead hair stylists at the Veil. My passion for hair and everything beautiful started well before I met Jenn in 2017. I’m a salon kid, so my love of creating beautiful hair is in my blood. I was a stylist behind the chair for 7 years before I became a wife and mom of 4 and transitioned into bridal hair.

    I absolutely love working with brides and bridesmaids to bring to life what they envision on the big day. My favorite styles to do are boho, romantic, and ethereal. I love learning new techniques, tips, and popular styles to keep up with trending trends.

    Above all, I love my job and traveling to meet incredible people. Knowing that I nailed a style or made someone look incredible is the most fulfilling to me. 

RENEE DOORLY | HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTIST

  • I aim to make every client feel beautiful while they enjoy this special day!”

    Hi, I’m Renee! I specialize in bridal hair and makeup.

    My background is in art, and I studied painting in college. I started doing bridal hair and makeup 7 years ago. I’m so grateful to have found a way to be able to be creative and connect with people. I love learning from other artists and developing my craft. The shared stories of friendship and love are my favorite part of the morning! I aim to make every client feel beautiful while they enjoy this special day!

KRISTEN WALLER | HAIR AND MAKEUP ARTIST

  • “I have a true passion for making people feel and look beautiful.”

    Hi, I'm Kristen! I have a true passion for making people feel and look beautiful. I am truly infatuated with seeing my brides feel gorgeous and their most confident by looking like the best version of themselves.

    Art is something I live and breathe, and I knew I wanted to have a creative career. So just like everyone, I went to college to find a place in this world. I took every art class imaginable: painting, drawing, pottery, and photography. Then it came to me! You see, I was always my friend's go-to girl for hair and makeup. So I thought, cosmetology!

    I got into the wedding business because I fell in love with the energy. Everyone's so happy, laughing, sharing stories and memorable moments. There is so much love in the air. I feel so blessed to be a part of your special day; honestly, it fills my heart. Weddings truly are my passion. I couldn't imagine doing anything else.

TAYLOR FERNOW | MAKEUP ARTIST

  • Hi, I’m Taylor! A woman in IT with a passion for makeup!

    I graduated from Old Dominion University in 2018 with a Business degree focused in Information Technology! I’ve always enjoyed being creative and it was during college where I found my love for makeup. Whether I was practicing on myself while watching YouTube tutorials, or dolling up my family and friends for all the special occasions in their lives… I always wanted to learn and do more! Today I can truly say I have found my passion in life with makeup and making others feel gorgeous by enhancing their natural beauty.

    Thank you for letting me be a part of your big day, I thoroughly enjoy connecting with people and bringing their vision to life. Hop in my chair, I cannot wait to help you feel your very best!
