Stephanie & Ray | Engagement | Annapolis

Session Date: May 23, 2009
Location: Annapolis, MD

So before I took my Vegas trip, I offered to do my friend Stephanie's e-session the day before. I also did her makeup and was going to do her hair, but she had it curled before I got there. This was good since it gave me more time to do her makeup. My sister called me a one-woman show: makeup/hair/photographer which I suppose I am, haha.

So Stephanie usually doesn't wear alot of makeup and being in photographs, you need to put on alot more than normal for it to even show up at all. I forgot to take the before pics so I took some from her FB to give you an idea. It was also my first time putting on individual lashes. I must say she could not stop looking at herself in the mirror. haha.. mission accomplished. =P

Before

After

This was the first e-session I've done so I was a bit nervous on how they would turn out. Anyways, below was how the day went...

We went to Annapolis for the shoot bc it was just gorgeous with the water scene and since it was nice and windy.. haha.. I didn't have to bring my fan.. j/k =P They were such a fun and happy couple - always laughing so it was definitely not hard to catch them in their natural surroundings. haha. The camera just loves them. =) I haven't showed them the pics yet since I need to finish them tonight but I hope they won't be disappointed!! =) View full post

Lana & Mike TTD Session

Session Date: October, 2008
Location: Connecticutt

So I had the honor to do my sister's hair and makeup, as well as being one of the two photographers that day for her TTD session, to celebrate her one year wedding anniversary last October.

She asked for soft curls and pinkish purple wedding look and that was what I did. However, the forecast was a bit gloomy and had sprinkles, so the curls didn't stay the whole day, but the makeup did and she had received compliments throughout the day. (Note to self: do not test out a new hairspray on day of shoot. =P)

Hair & Makeup

she made the bouquet herself (gorgeous!)

Note, I had just received my dslr camera that week before jetting off to Connecticut to do the shoot. So I barely had time to leaf through the manual before putting the baby to the test.
