Just off a flight from Houston, Texas, Wendi contacted us for engagement hair and makeup for her engagement photo shoot in San Francisco.
“I was so impressed with how well my makeup stayed all day with the bad weather. I assumed it would melt right off, but when we went to dinner that night it looked just as good as it did when I walked out of your salon!” – Wendi T
Thank you Wendi, it was a blast!
Erica booked us for on-location hair and makeup at the Claremont Hotel in Berkeley, California for her wedding at the Brazilian Room.
For hair, Erica loved the idea of having her hair down with a sweeping, understated braid to accentuate her half up, half down hair style. She also wanted lots of volume for the top and back of her hair. Mei created a natural look for her makeup, using a soft pink Chanel waterproof lipstick, and accentuated Erica’s beautiful eyes with long, individually placed lashes. After viewing the post trial photos, she loved the way they looked we were ready to go!
Stephen Hughes was a blast to work with, and took these great photos of Erica and Mike’s big day, thank you Stephen!
“Dearest Mei, Thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job with my hair and makeup. You made me look naturally beautiful and that made me the most happiest bride in the world! I hope you noticed that in my wedding pictures :) You are such a talented artist and I am very grateful and honored to have had you there as I prepared for my big day. We also wanted to thank Robert and Jack for being there as well!
I will definitely recommend you to everyone I know who we be getting married. Thanks again, Mei… You are a very sweet and beautiful person and I’m so happy that I met you. Take care and I wish you well, Love April”
April booked us for her makeup and hair nearly a year in advance for her July 4th weekend wedding at the Palace Hotel. This proved to be a wise decision on her part, as we had over 100 inquiries for her date from when she booked us. After attending her bridal trial in late 2009, she added eight more people for hair and makeup.
And as always, it was a pleasure to work with one of San Francisco’s best wedding photographers, Jessie Cho. Thank you Jessie, these are amazing!
(No Flash? Click here to view the video.) This production was pulled off by Aaron Lee Films and his crew. What is special about it is that it was shot and edited the same day! It was presented at April and Wil’s reception that evening.
Nikki contacted us from the East Coast to book her wedding hair and makeup for her ceremony at City Hall in San Francisco. We met at the luxurious Stanford Court Renaissance Hotel in the morning and worked with her lovely flower girls and attendees. Thanks for having us Nikki, you were amazing!
