An absolute dream to work with Jessica! From the trial run in January to the wedding day in October, Jessica made the process so smooth. Communication was amazing throughout the whole process and answered every question. My hair and makeup were absolutely stunning on my wedding day and both lasted through all of the tears, dancing and photos. She also brought a calm and fun energy to the room while we were getting ready. I would 1000% recommend Jessica for any hair or makeup need you have!

I’m not a makeup kind of girl but let me tell you Jessica did an absolute AMAZING job with my make up & hair. Along with the other girls in my wedding. She made us look so natural but also made us feel so beautiful! Her response is impeccable. She responds back in really good timing. Is very detailed about every thing which i love! She’s super easy to work with & super sweet! Because of me having a big wedding party she brought two other stylist with her & they also did such an amazing job! They were all great and easy to talk to! There was so many compliments though out the wedding with how amazing how make up and hair was!!! I HIGHLY recommend Jessica to anybody!! You will not be disappointed at all! I can’t thank you enough Jess!!!

Your wedding morning should feel calm, joyful, and completely taken care of. That’s the energy I bring- organized, steady, and “we’re good, everything’s handled.” Brides often tell me it feels like they’re getting ready with an old friend- which is one of the best compliments I could receive. Hi! I’m Jessica, owner of Serene Beauty. I’m a licensed esthetician and cosmetologist with over a decade of experience, serving 45–70 weddings each year since 2016 throughout the New York Capital Region and beyond. My goal is not only for you to look amazing, but to feel calm, confident, and completely Serene. I provide on-location makeup and hair services for brides and bridal parties, along with bridal trials, special event services, and facial treatments in my salon suite in Latham, New York. Every look is fully customized with an in-depth consultation, because beauty is never one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re envisioning soft and natural or elevated glam, your look will be tailored specifically to you. I am able to accommodate many parties on my own. For larger groups, when needed, I bring in very talented independent makeup and hair artists whom I've personally worked alongside for years. Serene Beauty is an all-inclusive, safe space for everyone. Always. Let's connect- I'd love to hear more about your wedding day!

Jessica Preston

Owner

Hi! I'm Jessica, and I'm so happy you're here! If you're interested in getting to know more about my story and my business, here are a few highlights! At around age 16, I knew I wanted a career in the beauty industry. Connecting with other women, hearing their stories, and helping them feel like the best, most confident version of themselves, I mean, doesn’t that sound like the dream? Right out of high school I attended The Paul Mitchell School, and obtained my cosmetology license at age 18. I spent about a year behind the chair cutting and coloring before realizing that bridal makeup and hair is where my heart truly lies. Shortly after, I had the opportunity to live in Hawaii (yes, it was as dreamy as it sounds!), a top-tier global wedding destination, where I spent 6 months working on an incredible wedding makeup and hair team. Being surrounded by that level of artistry and energy really solidified that this is exactly what I wanted to do. I moved back to Upstate New York in 2016 and officially started my business- formerly Jessica Lynne Hair and Makeup (the OG clients remember!), and I rebranded my business name to Serene Beauty in 2023. Since 2016, I've had the honor of doing between 45-70 weddings each year. Along the way, my love for skincare grew too. In 2025 I attended The Aesthetics Science Institute, and obtained my esthetics license. Now I offer facial services in addition to bridal beauty, and am helping clients have the best skin of their lives, and helping brides prep their skin for their wedding days. When I’m not working, you’ll catch me still working on ways to grow and elevate my business (business owner life), or doing anything active and intentional. I love taking walks, reading, practicing yoga, and spending time with those closest to me. But don’t let me fool you- I also love to indulge in meals out and sweets treats! So, what does working with me actually look like? Let’s dive in!

d working with her, I felt completely confident that I was in the best hands. Leading up to my wedding, I also had monthly facials with her, and I genuinely looked forward to every appointment. She helped me feel so confident in my skin and made me feel beautiful throughout the entire process—not just on my wedding day. Her genuine care for her clients is unmatched. On my wedding day, she made me feel absolutely BEAUTIFUL. My hair and makeup turned out even better than I could have imagined, and I felt so confident walking down the aisle. My makeup literally did not move the entire night! Even after hours of celebrating, dancing, and everything that comes with a wedding day, my makeup still looked incredible. She has such a calming, reassuring presence, which is exactly what you want on such an important and emotional day. She made me feel so comfortable, cared for, and beautiful from start to finish. I am beyond grateful that I found her and that she was the one who got me ready for the most important day of my life. If you are looking for someone who is incredibly talented, genuinely cares about her clients, and will make you feel absolutely gorgeous, I cannot recommend her enough. She is truly amazing at what she does, and I would choose her over and over again!!!!!!

oint. All I knew was I wanted my hair half up and half down. I didn't even have a reference picture, just an offhand suggestion from a close friend, but Jessica knew exactly what I was looking for without a pause. I told her I wanted to look fancier than usual but still natural, with makeup that would actually last, and she executed it perfectly even though I didn't have the vocabulary to describe what I wanted. I got compliments all day, and everything held up from our first ceremony photos to the late night after party. Jessica also managed the rest of the hair and makeup team for my wedding party, and they were all so warm and calm. They made both my mom and my partner's mom feel comfortable getting their hair and makeup done, which meant a lot. I'm forever grateful to Jessica and her team. If you're in the Capital Region and need someone to have you looking and feeling great, she's the best.

She provided a clear and accurate quote based on our party size and requested services, and she remained consistent, communicative, and organized throughout the entire process. In the days leading up to the wedding, Jessica checked in regularly with genuine care, making the planning feel effortless. Jessica and her team were not only highly knowledgeable and professional, but also incredibly warm, approachable, and respectful. On the wedding day, they arrived right on time and worked seamlessly, creating beautiful looks for everyone. With Jessica and her team on your side, you can expect punctuality, professionalism, and stunning results — all delivered with kindness and grace. I couldn’t be happier with the experience.

and her passion for her work is evident in everything she does. Her communication throughout the entire process was exceptional. She was very responsive, attentive, and always made sure every detail was taken care of. Whenever I had questions, she always answered them so clearly and thoroughly. I’m very particular when it comes to makeup, and from the moment I first met Jessica at my makeup trial and described my vision, she brought it to life PERFECTLY. She completely understood the look I wanted and executed it flawlessly. I was blown away! On my wedding day, she brought such a calming presence to the morning and made the entire getting-ready experience so enjoyable. Jessica made me feel absolutely radiant and confident on my wedding day. My makeup photographed beautifully, lasted all day and night, and still felt like me. Jessica brought along a second artist, Lisa, who was also amazing! Jessica and Lisa took the BEST care of all my girls, and everyone looked gorgeous! They easily managed to get a large group of girls ready beautifully and efficiently while keeping the morning calm and stress-free. I am beyond grateful that Jessica was a part of my wedding day. I highly recommend her to any bride looking for someone who is incredibly talented, professional, and truly cares about making you feel your absolute best. Jessica is truly 5 stars and beyond! I will be looking for any excuse to get my makeup done with her again in the future! 💕

I felt so beautiful on my special day, and that confidence meant everything to me. I’m so grateful to Jessica for her talent, professionalism, and care.

I highly recommend doing a hair and make up trial because we were able to make small tweaks to achieve perfection for the real day. I wanted my makeup to feel light and natural and to feel like myself but better, and Jessica took the time to listen and bring the vision to life better than expected. My make up was flawless, elegant, and timeless and lasted the whole night. My hair was equally as beautiful, secure, and exactly the style I asked for. She even gave me a goodie bag for both hair and makeup touchups. I cannot recommend and thank Jessica enough!

Jessica was the most organized vendor we worked with, a JOY to be with, and one of the best choices we made for our wedding! She was immediately engaged in working with me to plan ...

for the day. We organized a hair and make-up trial which I would strongly urge everyone to do -- after the trial, I ended up having different ideas for what I wanted on the actual wedding day, and Jessica was completely on board and helpful in shaping the vision. On the day-of when she arrived at 8:30 AM in the morning, it felt like she fit right into the group and made all of us feel confident and gorgeous. When I look at the pictures I am receiving from the wedding, I see a beautiful, happy version of myself, which is the greatest gift. Thank you Jessica!

I can't say enough amazing things about Jessica and her team! She was extremely organized, professional, and knowledgable about all things makeup. She helped me make sure that the ...

schedule of the day was set months in advance so that me and my *12* other people getting makeup done would do so in a timely manner. Not to mention that I felt like an absolute princess on my wedding day!! I didn't have a particular look in mind so even without much to go off of Jessica made me look and feel amazing. She is an expert at false eyelashes and I couldn't even tell they were there! She was also super kind and easy to talk to and made everyone feel comfortable on my wedding day. I would book her again in a heartbeat!

el so comfortable throughout the entire process, from hiring her to the wedding day. On the wedding day, she worked her magic — my hair looked even better than I imagined and lasted the entire night. She also styled my friends and family beautifully, staying the longest to complete last minute touch ups. Beyond the amazing skill, her calming, friendly energy was exactly what every bride needs. I’m so grateful and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is not only gifted with hair, but with making you feel like your best self! Thank you Jessica!!

I cannot thank Jessica from Serene Beauty enough for making me, my bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother in law feel like absolute queens on my wedding day! Jessica is the most organi...

zed person I have ever had the pleasure of working with and she gets every detail perfect. Jessica is prepared and has excellent communication. She truly listens to understand exactly what her clients want and she DELIVERS! I went for my bridal trial in January and Jessica instantly made me feel at ease and confident in her skills. On my wedding day I wanted to make some changes to the look I had trialed, and she was able to execute them perfectly. I went full glam with the makeup, but I still looked like myself and got SO many complements. My hair and makeup both held up for the whole day/evening... even in the 90 degree heat and humidity for outdoor photos! I would trust Jessica over and over again for all my hair and makeup needs. It was so nice to work with just one vendor for hair/makeup, and she was truly so AFFORDABLE!!
