Personal color analysis

You're uniquely made, and there really is no one else like you. Color analysis is simply how I help you see that. I'm not here to hand you a list of colors you're not allowed to wear.

You sit down as yourself

When you sit down with me, it isn't a quiz and it isn't a makeover. I want our time to feel personal and peaceful, and honestly a little fun. You're not here so I can turn you into somebody else.

Colors come up to your face

I'll hold different colors near your skin, your hair, and your eyes. A shade that looked gorgeous on your best friend might not be yours at all, because you weren't made like everyone else. The sweet part is that you get to watch it happen.

You leave with a clearer palette

You'll leave knowing which clothes and colors make you feel beautiful and confident in your real life. I haven't listed what you take home, or how long we'll be together, until I'm sure those details are right.

About the seasons

Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter are just a shared way of talking about families of color. My own taste leans rich and earthy and gold, and yours might be completely different, which is the whole point. An app can take a guess and still get you wrong. I'd rather we look together, in person or virtually, and let you see it, because the photos don't lie.
