Hi, I’m Mya Pinkney-McCargo, a fashion-focused stylist and makeup artist with a love for storytelling through wardrobe. I design and curate looks for photoshoots, films, and live fashion events, ensuring each character’s style supports the narrative while aligning with brand identity. I thrive in collaborative settings and enjoy bringing out clients’ confidence and individuality with thoughtful styling and precise makeup. In my studies at SCAD and my work on diverse projects—bridal consultations, end-of-program fashion shows, and production coordination—I’ve built a versatile toolkit in fashion design, photography, and production. I’m excited to continue creating expressive, empowering looks that celebrate unique stories and personalities.
