Our Team
A trusted team delivery elevated bridal beauty.
KT
As KT Beauty Bridal evolved, so did the demand and I knew that if I was going to expand, it had to be done properly. Every artist on the KT Beauty Bridal team has been personally trained by me, not just in technique, but in how we work, how we show up on a wedding morning, and how we make our brides feel.
We’re calm under pressure, big on the details, and fully aligned in our approach to soft glam, glowing skin, and polished, timeless hair. The same level of care, professionalism, and energy you’d expect from me, just delivered by a team I trust completely.
Whether I’m with you on the day or one of my artists is, you can expect the same elevated experience, seamless morning, and results that photograph beautifully and last well beyond the final dance.
Creative Director & Founder
Katriona Allen
I’m Katriona, founder and lead artist behind KT Beauty Bridal.
With over eight years in the beauty industry, my approach to bridal hair and makeup has always been about more than how it looks, it’s about how it feels. Calm, considered, and completely tailored to you.
My background spans weddings, theatre, film, and editorial work, where precision, timing, and composure aren’t optional… they’re essential. From live theatre performances to on-set environments where there’s no room for error, I’ve learned how to deliver flawless results under pressure, while keeping the energy grounded and the experience seamless. That same level of professionalism carries through to every wedding morning.
My style leans into refined, elevated beauty: glowing skin, soft structure, and hair that feels effortless yet intentional. Bridal beauty should still look like you, just more polished, more confident, and photographed beautifully from every angle.
Wedding mornings can be emotional, busy, and fast-paced, which is why experience matters. I bring a steady presence, an eye for detail, and a deep understanding of timelines, lighting, longevity, and how beauty translates both on camera and in real life. Nothing is rushed, nothing is overlooked.
KT Beauty Bridal was created for brides who value quality, professionalism, and an artist who understands the full picture of a wedding day, not just the moment in the chair, but everything around it.
What started with me has grown into something really special.

I Started freelancing as a mobile MUA in 2020 after completing my studies at the Australian Academy of Cinemagraphic Makeup (AACM). After some time in the film/Tv world, I soon fell in love with Bridal and special event makeup. I love being a fully mobile MUA as it has given me so many more opportunities and after years of working retail, I really enjoy being able to switch up my job locations all the time.
