Meet the Artist
Gabby
Quick Facts: Gabby is based in Montgomery County, Maryland, where she lives with her husband, daughter, and two beloved cats. Outside of beauty, she finds joy in slow mornings with iced coffee, family adventures, live music, and making everyday moments feel like a celebration.
Beauty Background: Gabby’s artistry began in 2009, working with local clients and events in the Richmond area. Her early talent and dedication caught the attention of a pro makeup artist based in Philadelphia, leading to private training and backstage experience at two seasons of New York Fashion Week.
In 2017, she earned her international makeup certification and has since become a sought-after bridal artist across the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia region. With nearly 400 weddings to date, Gabby is known for her soft glam aesthetic, flawless skin work, and calming, detail-driven approach that brings ease and elegance to every wedding morning.
Favorite Makeup product: MAC Studio Fix Fluid Foundation — the holy grail for creating a seamless, photo-ready complexion.
Favorite hair product: Schwarzkopf Silhouette Pump Spray — a must-have for hold that lasts through every dance floor moment.
Favorite beauty hack: Bronzer in the crease — the quickest way to create definition and warmth with minimal effort.
From the artist: “Makeup should never mask who you are. It’s about amplifying what already makes you beautiful—and honoring the moments you want to remember forever.”

Testimonials
- "They were so easy to work with for the trial and my wedding day turned out even better than the trial did. I had 7 bridesmaids + my mom get their hair and makeup done (s/o to Katy for assisting with makeup), and their schedule and timing fit perfectly with the wedding timeline that we even had time to spare after everything... Thank you for making my wedding vision come true!"

"I cannot recommend MAB Artistry enough! From the very first email, their communication was top-notch — swift, detailed, and so reassuring. They had their own organized timeline for updates, which kept me stress-free and confident throughout the process. When I visited their gorgeous studio for my trial, Tanya (makeup), Stefani (hair), and Lucy (MUA) were incredibly communicative, making sure I got a look that suited my personal style and needs. They listened to my vision, gave helpful suggestions, and adapted everything perfectly. On my wedding day, they arrived on time, brought such a calm and friendly energy, and made everyone — from bridesmaids to flower girls — feel comfortable and beautiful. I was so impressed by their ability to adapt to different ages, skin tones, hair types, and personal preferences. They nailed every single look while making sure it truly suited the person wearing it. I felt so beautiful and confident walking down the aisle, and my bridal party could not stop raving about how good they felt. Tanya, Stefani, and Lucy are true professionals and artists. If you want a team who is organized, communicative, talented, and makes you feel like your best self, MAB Artistry is the one."
