When it comes to bridal beauty on the Gold Coast, one name is reigning supreme: Kimmi K. With three professional qualifications, nine years of experience and a reputation for precision and polish, Kimmi has become the artist every bride dreams of booking, the one who delivers glow, grace and glamour time and time again.

Her artistry is instantly recognisable, with radiant, bronzed skin that catches the light, feather-soft blush that melts seamlessly and luminous finishes that look as refined in person as they do on camera. It’s luxury made wearable, makeup designed to last from “I do” to the final dance while enhancing, not masking, natural beauty.

Kimmi’s journey began with a love for warm, sun-kissed tones and the joy of making others feel beautiful. What started as practice on friends soon evolved into a thriving career as her signature style drew the attention of brides-to-be across the Gold Coast. For her, every wedding morning is a highlight, filled with anticipation, laughter and that unforgettable moment when a bride first sees herself ready to walk down the aisle which continues to fuel her passion.

Like many in the wedding industry, her days are often described as hectic, yet in the most rewarding way. Mornings often begin in the soft glow of dawn, as she arrives on-site to perfect the bridal party ahead of the celebrations, then returns to her studio for event clients. On quieter days, she’s creating content, managing bookings and refining her artistry. Kimmi’s rhythm is simple: she moves with the ebb and flow of the seasons, balancing hustle with calm and radiating a serenity brides instantly connect with.

Her approach to bridal makeup is deeply collaborative. While most clients come to her for her signature bronzy glow, she tailors every look to the bride’s individual features and style. Each face is treated like a canvas, with cream products layered to build natural radiance and soft definition and a swipe of nude eyeliner, her subtle signature, brightens the eyes and adds that understated, modern touch she’s known for.

What truly sets Kim apart is her transparency. From unfiltered videos to makeup in motion and even a dedicated tab on her website for iPhone photos, her social media shows real-life bridal beauty like it really is. Brides aren’t just drawn to her artistry, they love her warmth, professionalism and the genuine connection she brings to every step of the journey.

Described as polished, timeless and modern, Kimmi’s brand embodies the new era of bridal beauty: luxe yet approachable, elevated yet effortless. Her work is defined by detail, her presence by calm confidence and her mornings by joy. We’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Kimmi on two styled shoots this year, first at Braeside Estate for the launch of their bridal suite and most recently at the Mondrian Gold Coast, where her artistry brought a luminous cohesion to every frame.
