  • Wedding Hair and Makeup at Berkeley Rose Garden

    We recently had the pleasure of working with Angela and Jay for their wedding at the Berkeley Rose Garden, located in the beautiful Berkeley hills next to the UC Berkeley Campus.

    Angela was looking for a timeless, natural look for her makeup, and chose individually placed eyelashes for her eyes. Mei and Angela worked closely to come up with a unique style for the back of her updo, shown below:

    Lastly, we were thrilled to work with Mike and Natasha from Choco Studio Photography again — they are all smiles! Friendly, professional, fast turnaround, and most important, their work is stellar. Below are some of the moments they captured while we were getting ready before the ceremony at the Berkeley Rose Garden. Enjoy!

  • Wedding Makeup and Hair in Tiburon, California

    In late 2009, we collaborated with international wedding photographer Henry Chen at Lulu and Ken’s wedding at the Shakespeare Garden in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. Henry is in high demand — when he is not shooting for the NBA, he is shooting weddings and special events all over the globe. Below are some of the memories from their beautiful wedding in the Bay Area. Thanks to Lulu and Ken for such an memorable wedding!

  • Wedding Makeup and Hair St. Ignatius SF

    Jennifer scheduled her bridal trial, excited to go over ideas for hair and makeup for her upcoming wedding at St. Ignatius Church in San Francisco.

    At our studio, we discussed Jennifer’s goals, the wedding theme and colors, and went over a few looks that she brought in.

    We did makeup first, using our ultra-lightweight MUD foundations. For her lips, I chose Chanel Rouge Double Intensite in Rose Pearl. To create more refined, dramatic look, we used Shu Umuera individually placed eyelashes to really accentuate her eyes. I then created a bridal hairstyle that matched Jennifer’s personality: a sleek, elaborate updo that lasted all day.

    Thank you Jennifer and Tim, we loved working with you! And a special thanks to the talented Sylvie Gil for her great photography.
