Tarah McNeice

Owner, Lead Spray Artist Tarah founded shade in the Fall of ‘24 and officially opened the doors January ‘25. She’s a mom to an awesome one year old and likes to spend all of her free time outside. Any chance she gets she will find a hike and end it at a winery. You can find Tarah spraying most evenings!

Shella Apodaca Allen

Shella has been with Shade since the summer of 2025. Her love of skin care combined with her genuine care and appreciation for each of her clients makes her an amazing addition to the team. Shella is a blending queen, never leaving hands, knees or elbows without a good “blend-out” with one of our body brushes. Outside of Shade, Shella is a writer— her office is just down the hall from our spray tan studio making her the ultimate multi-tasking queen!
