ENGAGED | Jennifer + Robin by Claudia Hung

Meet Jennifer + Robin – one of Claud‘s cool couples getting married later this year!  Jennifer and Robin hail from New York, but Jennifer actually grew up locally and went to high school with Claud…while chatting over our make-up session, it turns out that Jennifer and I also know some mutual people!  Yep, the world just gets smaller!!!  I’m looking forward to chatting with Jennifer again in September as we get her prepped for her Big Day.  Enjoy Claud’s pics for now…I always do!  :)

WEDDING | Shemara

Photos from Shemara’s Big Day are now up on artistrhi weddings!  I had the opportunity to work with Shemara doing the make-up for her mehendi party and for her wedding ceremony over the course of a couple of days.

Shemara has such big, gorgeous eyes – her lids are the equivalent of a make-up artist’s playground…I could literally play make-up on lids like that all day (!and probably would if not for having to worry about getting her down the aisle on time…oh yeah, that!)!  Personally, I love how ornate the details of Asian weddings are…from the mehendi to the dress(es) to the bridal make-up look(s), the final results are eye candy!  Seriously stunning.

I’m looking forward to playing make-up again with Shemara…check out her very sweet thank you note below :)

ENGAGED | Sandra + Ade by Claudia Hung

Here’s the latest from an e-shoot collabo with the insanely talented Claudia Hung!  I swear Claud has the best clients…usually, I run over time when doing make-up because I always find myself getting carried away chatting with her brides (yeah, ahem…umm sorry, Claud!  I try to keep to schedule!).

Sandra was a doll to work with…amazing personality, contagious laugh, and such gorgeous features – just a couple of which being her killer cheekbones + amazing hair!!  Love the way this set turned out, but then again with Claud behind the lens, I always do!!!  Looking forward to the next e-session ;)

Check out Claud’s post on her blog for more of Sandra + Ade!  (Thanks Claud for the shout-out!)

WEDDING | Donna

Photos from Donna’s Big Day are now up on artistrhi weddings!  Donna (pictured top far right) wears minimal make-up day-to-day and wanted her look to be ultra natural.  We worked on subtly defining her features and adding a minimal amount of colour (so that her overall look didn’t fall flat in photos!). The results were simple and elegant, and best of all, Donna had the look she wanted while feeling like herself!

Great to see Spencer Fu behind the lens and Tricia on hair for this wedding  once again.  I think we made a great team if I can say so myself!  :)
