I received this photo from Tammy. It a picture of one of the bridesmaid that i did makeup for a while back.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THESE NEXT PHOTOS ARE CREDITED TO [ Hy Le from Mizu-K Photography ] .
They were super friendly and made everything a enjoyable experience. I am grateful that they took so many pictures of me while I was doing make up for the bridesmaid and the mother. The hotel was located in cupertino.

The next couple of photos are from the same event but taken by Tammy.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This next wedding was held in Menlo Park which is pretty much close to Stanford. Unfortunately, we were tight on time and couldn't capture more pictures. I thought everyone looked absolutely incredible. Since the two bridesmaid had blue eyes, I used gold and brown eyeshadow to make their eyes pop.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THESE NEXT PHOTOS ARE CREDITED TO ALICE BUI . I enjoy working with Alice so much not just because shes a awesome photographer but the fact that the environment is always a fun and enjoyable one. Same goes for Darren. They are both wonderful people to work with. I would highly recommend the both of them if you ever need a photographer.

The model name was Lyly Nguyen. She was also a pleasure to work with. Being a model is a tough job. You have to get down and dirty but yet make yourself look graceful and beautiful. It was fun hiking through hill even though this stupid wasp kept following me. -.-"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My boss asked me to do her make up for her son's wedding so i told her I would do a trial first so when the day comes everything will go smoothly and perfectly :D I must admit my boss looked like a smexy fox for her age. I wish people can see it in real life because I took this photo with my iphone so the quality is terrible but oh wells.

p.s IF ANYONE IS HANDY WITH THE HTML OR BUILDING A WEBSITE. PLEASE CONTACT ME BECAUSE I WANT TO EXPAND MY PHOTOS AND UPGRADE MY BLOG.

Thank yooous <3

UPDATE (: "wedding makeup"

2010-08-21T16:33:00.000-07:00

Summer is almost over and school is creeping closer and closer. There is way too many things I want to do before this summer ends. Hopefully, I can cross some of the things I want to do before I have to go into total focus mode.

But anywhoo enough about that. Two weeks ago I did makeup for two bride maids that I forgot to post up. Sadly, my computer died but its okay I saved it onto my facebook lol and also all my photos are on my blog so I can also access them easily as well.

The first brides maid was Miriya, which Ive met before. It was very surprising indeed to see her. She requested a more smokey dark look with a hint of pinkish purple since her dress was purple (:

I didnt get the chance take a photo of the second bridesmaid but I found a photo (: Hopefully Billie doesnt mind that I snag these photos from her (;
I did makeup for the two in the middle.

It was a very good experience and everyone looked absolutely gorgeous. It made me want to get dolled up for a wedding.

I also had another wedding gig that I did, which was today (: I felt a little pressured with time but I was able to finish 4 bridesmaids. Since the bridesmaids are not use to wearing makeup, I kept it very natural looking. Here are some of the photos from that event.

(*click on it for better viewing pleasures *)

Before: no makeup whatsoever

AFTER (:

I forgot to snap a before picture ): oh wells
AFTER!

BEFORE: Billie snap a picture during the middle of me doing make up.

FINISHED!

Before:

AFTER!

4 bridesmaid 3 hours.. I neeed to improve my TIME management -_____-" Hopefully, I will be quicker. Everyone was very wonderful and gorgeous indeed. After that, I drove over to Jenny's Bf house to do her make up for a wedding. I will post photos later when i received them.

Overall, I think doing make up for people has been one of my best decisions in life lol I am greatly improving and most definitely still learning. This is what I really enjoy doing and I'm glad I pursue it (: I will be looking forward to more great experiences.

Here are the results. (: im gettting better with time management these days since I timed myself during this photoshoot. I did it under 30 minutes with 5 minutes to spare. Also, I did it under hot windy conditions and I manage to pull it off. I'm quite surprise that the makeup stayed on during the photoshoot since it was such a hot day and they had to hike up to the bridge to do the photoshoot. Id figure it would melt off her face but goood thing studio fix does the job heh heh

workshop # dos

2010-06-16T00:56:00.000-07:00

Hellllo! I just had a workshop #2 on Monday. My very first experience with doing hair and it went pretty okay. It was pretty tricky but I got the general idea of it so hopefully Ill get better and it will get easier from now on.

Check it out (:
Model: Jenn Truong.

I'm sooo dark compared to Jenn ):

Awwww... She still loooks pretty without make up (: Her skins sooo nice, it made my job much easier lol

<3 Thank you Jenn for taking the time out for me (:

Oh btw. Did I mention we have a new member to the team! She's a wonderful makeup artist named Theresa Ta!
Check out her blog. ----> http://theresata.tumblr.com

It's beeen so long since Ive blog but Ive been busy and I am also going on a lil mini vacation with my girls in 7 hrs, which means I should be sleeping now since I am the driver lol buuut its okay double shot will fix that.(:

On another note, I also did some prom make up. Im still waiting on the other girls but here is Stevie's little sister.

She looked ridiculously gorgeous. Too bad I dont have a super awesome camera to capture it but oh wellls.. you can sorta get the idea.

Here are some make up looks that Ive done this past weeks on myself. I'm trying to play with the colors to see which goes well with each other.I wanna buy a color wheeel. It would be most helpful when Im choosing colors.

(*please disregard my lost facial expression LOL*)

I still neeed to pack and get things done so I must end this now. gnight (:

must saaaaaaaaaaaave up ):
