My name is Madeline, and I am so happy to meet you.

With nearly a decade of experience in the industry, I am currently freelance full time with NYC as my home base, while also assisting and working with industry greats such as mentors Cassandra Garcia (Bobbi Brown’s Global Makeup Artist, Key MUA to several SNL stars), and Troy Surratt (Kevyn Aucoin's Assistant, Founder of Surratt Beauty.) I do a broad range of work, from fine-art bridal, to celebrity clients, to commercial and editorial, and absolutely love that each and every day on set is filled with something different, new, and exciting.

After growing up within the musical theatre world and being exposed to makeup artistry backstage, I knew I wanted pursue hair and makeup as my full time career. A letter of recommendation from Bobbi Brown of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics led me to Emerson College, where I received a Theatre Studies degree with a concentration in makeup artistry, and a minor in Marketing. The rest was history. 

Cultural and global understanding is hugely important to me and my business; I have worked all over the world, in European countries like France, Greece, and Italy, to Asia and the island of Bali,  all across the United States— and even in the Caribbean locations of Puerto Rico and the small island of Petit St. Vincent in the Grenadines. This cultural awareness has only further enforced some key values that are reflected here at Madeline Eleanor + Co., such as strong support of the LGBTQIA+ communities, and Black Lives Matter movement. Diversity, inclusion, and the true support of others in feeling their absolute best is at the very heart of what we do here.

Madeline and her work are absolutely phenomenal! I had an international wedding, and was worried that with the local options I wouldn't look my best on my wedding day. I found Madeline on Instagram, and loved her style and previous work -- I felt like it was exactly how I wanted to look on my wedding day. After the initiial trial, I knew I had to book her! Madeline has amazing training, a beautiful portfolio, and is a true professional. She is such a kind person and listens to exactly what you want while giving her best professional advice. I would recommend hiring her a hundred times over!

Married in Brooklyn, New York

When I think back on my wedding day for years to come, I will always remember how beautiful I felt, but most importantly how incredibly like myself I felt—and that was because of Madeline. She helped me look exactly how I envisioned myself as a bride and I cannot accurately describe how good of a feeling that was. Her and her team of superstar assistants are beyond anything you could want from a HMU crew—their talent, professionalism and artistry are unmatched. After my trial, we decided on a few little tweaks and Madeline executed them to perfection. Don’t look any further for your HMU needs—Madeline is it ❤️
