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!
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.
We worked with Pam late last year for her tea ceremony and wedding hair and makeup in San Francisco. As we set up our on-location kit at her home for her Chinese tea ceremony and started the services, we shared laughs and stories with her mother and family.
Just before the tea ceremony…
As Mei was finalizing Pam’s hair design, David Ham (seriously one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s best wedding photographers), arrived with his crew and equipment and got right to work. It’s because of clients like Pam and Bill that we love our job. Enjoy some of the joyous moments from their ceremony below, special thanks to David for the photography!
Congratulations to Judy on a wonderful tea ceremony and wedding in Marin. It was an honor to work with you and your party.
And kudos to Kevin Wong of W Photography for these captivating shots at the Marin Art and Garden Center in Ross, California.
