About Special Occasion & Photoshoot Makeup
My Soft Glam Approach
I’m all about that 'no filter' soft glam - not here to change your face, just to bring out your natural glow. I want you to look amazing in person and in those unedited, straight-from-the-camera photos. No cakey or overdone vibes.
Occasions I Love Working On
From engagement parties to baby showers and housewarmings, I create looks that fit your moment. If you’re a bridesmaid or just want something special for a big day, I’ll help you find the right balance - sometimes it’s a dewy baby shower makeup, sometimes it’s a little more bold for a reception.
Photoshoot Makeup
I work with models, brands, and regular folks for all sorts of shoots. I get how important teamwork is on set, and I’m comfortable following creative direction, whether it’s classic glam or something more editorial photoshoot makeup. Playing with colour, winged liner, or keeping it super soft for jewellery campaigns - I’m up for it.
Hair & The Extra Bits
Makeup is only half the story. I work with pro hairstylists, so your hair and makeup match your vibe and your outfit. I keep things chill, give simple directions in Telugu or English - like, “turn chei itla” (just turn a bit this way) or “pallu idchukoni smile chei” (hold your pallu and smile!) - so you look your best in every shot.
Based in Bangalore, but honestly, I’ll travel anywhere for your big day.

My Story
Hey, I'm Yashoda. Makeup’s more than a job for me, it’s my thing. I get a kick out of seeing someone light up when they see themselves after I’m done. Been lucky to travel a lot, but honestly, teaching new artists is special. Watching them find their own groove, that’s what I live for. It’s not just about me - I want our makeup fam to grow, respect, and love this art.
