Carlo Says Inc

Contact for details, NY

Carlo Geraci is a makeup artist with a 20+ year career that reads like a who's-who of entertainment and fashion. His client list includes Angela Bassett, Cindy Crawford, Brooke Shields, Helen Mirren, Diane Sawyer, Reese Witherspoon, Elizabeth Taylor, and Michael Bublé. He's worked in television, fashion, music, and events at the highest level.

Carlo operates under the brand "Carlo Says," which extends beyond makeup into what he calls "Aesthetic Living" — encompassing beauty, table design, and home styling. For weddings, the focus is on-site makeup application for the bride and bridal party.

A 50% deposit is required upon booking any wedding service. His availability depends on his schedule across all of his professional commitments, so booking early is important. This isn't a wedding-only business — Carlo maintains his entertainment and editorial work alongside his bridal clients.

The level of experience Carlo brings is unusual for a wedding makeup artist. Two decades of working with A-list celebrities under camera lights means he understands how makeup reads on screen and in photos at a level that most bridal artists haven't had the opportunity to learn. That translates directly to wedding photography — the makeup is designed to look good on camera, not just in person.

For high-end Hudson Valley weddings at properties like Wildflower Farms, booking a makeup artist with this level of pedigree matches the caliber of the venue and the expectations of the event. If you're looking for a Hudson Valley wedding photographer who knows these vendors, get in touch.
