We've had the pleasure of witnessing first-hand how Colour Me Artistry's expertise can elevate any bridal look to extraordinary heights. But don't just take our word for it – dive deeper into the world of Colour Me Artistry by reading more about who they are and what they do!



Who are you, what you do and who you serve?

My name is Kim Johannesson, I am a professional luxury Makeup Artist and I serve Winnipeg and the surrounding area within Manitoba! 


What services do you offer? 

I provide makeup services for any and all occasions! I am primarily a Bridal Artist however I also offer makeup for all photoshoots, bridal showers, bachelorette parties, festival makeup and spfx makeup. 



How did you get started in the wedding industry, and what inspired you to become a makeup artist?

When I was in Grade 8, I had to do a presentation on a career I looked up to and I had to bring in a  guest speaker. I chose an artist from the Polo Park MAC counter and she came to my middle school for the presentation. I was so enamored with her, since the age of 12 I thought being a makeup artist was the coolest job you could have. Playing with colour and makeup and making women feel beautiful. From then I knew it’s all I ever wanted to be.  After graduating from Blanche Macdonald in Vancouver, I came back to Winnipeg and started assisting another makeup artist in the industry. 


What do you enjoy most about working in the wedding industry and serving couples on their special day?

I absolutely love making my clients feel beautiful on their special day! It’s one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. Knowing I had a hand in building their confidence on one of the most memorable days in their life, it’s such a rewarding feeling! 



What do you believe is the most important consideration when couples are choosing a makeup artist? 

Knowing they are in the right hands! I am a 13 year experience makeup artist and even if I meet my client for the first time on their wedding day, I know I will be able to provide them with the most flawless gorgeous look they have always been hoping for! 


I pride myself in my experience, my talent but also my ability to ask the right questions while they’re in my chair so the look I provide is exactly what they as the client, is wanting! 


What is the ideal timeline for couples to book your services in advance of their wedding day?

1.5 to 2 years in advance. 



What is the best piece of advice you would offer to couples planning their wedding?

Take your time while planning! Take a few steps back even if you need to. This is about you and your partner and what will make you the happiest on one of the most special days of your life! The vendors you hire are professionals, they have amazing experience in the industry and we are all here to help you achieve your dreams on your special day! 


Can you share your favorite wedding trend or design idea that you're currently excited about?

I’m loving the bright colours that are coming back! Bright pinks, or peach with soft blues, it’s all so gorgeous! Also mix matched bridesmaid dresses but in the same colour scheme - I’m loving that trend! 



How do you stand out?

My experience in the industry sets me apart but also my ability to connect with my clients and make them feel comfortable! Their big day is about them and I truly just want my clients to feel comfortable and Gorgeous after they leave my chair! I will go to great lengths to make sure they are happy with my work.
