About

Hi, I'm Courtney Hayes, founder of The Elevated Image.

I am a certified color analyst who helps clients discover the colors that naturally enhance their features and eliminate the guesswork from shopping, wardrobe choices, hair color, and makeup.

My approach combines professional draping, education, and personalized guidance so clients leave feeling confident in their colors and equipped with practical tools they can use every day.

Why I Do This Work

Many of my clients arrive feeling capable and accomplished, yet unsure when it comes to clothing, hair, or makeup choices...

They've spent time and money on pieces that don't work—not because they lack taste, but because they lack clear guidance.

What you Can Expect

When you work with me, you can expect:

  • Clear, honest guidance

  • A calm, focused experience

  • A professional process grounded in expertise

  • Results that extend beyond the session

My role is to guide you with confidence and intention - so you no longer have to rely on guesswork or trial and error.
