About Virginia Elizabeth - Virginia Elizabeth Aesthetics
Introduction to our story
Virginia Elizabeth Aesthetics was founded in 2018 with a clear mission: to create a refined, private studio environment where professional skincare and portrait photography exist under one thoughtful roof.
Unlike a traditional busy salon, our studio offers a quiet, one-on-one experience focused entirely on the client. As a fully licensed and insured practitioner, Virginia Elizabeth brings a passion for clinical precision and artistic detail to every session, ensuring that your experience is safe, results-oriented, and deeply restorative.
Virginia spent her childhood growing up in Martha’s Vineyard. As a snowbird she fell in love with the Palm Coast and has relocated to sunny Florida recently, while still offering services seasonally in Martha’s Vineyard from June through August. Virginia brings her years of experience and expertise with a touch of northern hospitality to the Palm Coast area for a majority of the year, and is looking forward to offering her personalized services to other fellow snowbirds while they are visiting!
Why a unified studio matters
Beauty and image are interconnected. Skin health influences how makeup performs. A well-executed beauty service enhances the face’s natural architecture. Professional photography captures the visible outcome that good skincare and beauty services produce. By combining clinical aesthetics with artistic photography, Virginia Elizabeth Aesthetics ensures that your transformation is both seen and preserved. Our integrated approach removes guesswork about how your skin and features will appear in images and everyday life.
Our values and approach
Personalized care
Every client receives a thorough intake, assessment, and a customized treatment plan tailored to their skin, facial anatomy, and lifestyle.
Clinical integrity
We use evidence-based modalities and medical-grade products when indicated. Safety and results drive our recommendations.
Holistic perspective
We consider skin health, beauty goals, and image needs together not as separate services.
Meet Virginia Elizabeth (founder & lead clinician/photographer)
Virginia brings professional training in clinical aesthetics and a background in visual arts and photography. Her combined expertise creates a unique client experience: treatments are performed with precision, and photography is guided by an intimate understanding of how skin, light, and composition interact. Virginia’s philosophy emphasizes natural enhancement, realistic results, and empowering clients through education and transparent communication.
“Her work reflects precision and artistry, and her attention to detail is unmatched.”
— Carol B., Walpole, MA
Our team and training
The studio is staffed by licensed professionals trained in anatomy, skin physiology, antiseptic technique, and device protocols. Team training emphasizes continuing education so we can offer up-to-date, safety-first care—especially for modalities like micro-current treatments, ultrasound facials, microdermabrasion, and dermaplaning. Whether performing a facial or capturing a photographic portrait, our team operates under consistent standards for cleanliness, client privacy, and respectful care.
The studio environment
Designed to be soothing and professional, the studio combines comfortable treatment rooms with a small photographic area suitable for headshots, beauty portraits, and before-and-after documentation. Client comfort and confidentiality are priorities; appointments are scheduled to minimize overlap and preserve a calm atmosphere.
How we ensure safety and quality
Licensed staff: Always verify certifications and licenses; our team maintains current licensure and training records.
Clean clinical practices: We use single-use and properly sterilized instruments where applicable, follow infection control best practices, and maintain a clean studio environment.
Evidence-based treatments: Modalities are chosen based on their proven efficacy and compatibility with each client’s skin.
Informed consent: Before any service, we explain risks, contraindications, and aftercare so you can consent with confidence.
Community and local commitment
As a St. Augustine business, Virginia Elizabeth Aesthetics values community relationships. We prioritize sustainable product choices where possible and engage with local partners for events and referral collaborations. Our location at 4 Bonita Bay Drive is convenient to local neighborhoods and visitors seeking professional aesthetics and portrait photography during their stay.
What sets us apart
Integrated services
Few studios offer both advanced aesthetic treatments and in-house photography by the same practitioner. This integrated experience ensures results look their best in person and in images.
Individualized protocols
Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, each plan is customized to the client’s skin history, sensitivities, and objectives.
Attention to detail
From pre-treatment care to makeup-ready photography, every step focuses on outcomes that feel natural and confident.
Transparent communication
We inform you about expected timelines, realistic improvements, and maintenance needs so you can make informed decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept walk-ins?
To maintain personalized time for each client, appointments are recommended. Call (617) 797-7254 to confirm last-minute availability.
Do you offer consultations?
Yes. We start with a consultation to evaluate your skin, discuss goals, and propose a course of action. Photography consultations are also available for session planning.
Can I combine services in one visit?
