Newport Beach Engagement Shoot

 Middle school and High school sweethearts Brianna and Danny have been together for more than nine years. Last, Wednesday I did Brianna's make-up for their engagement shoot with ArlethGPhotography. We wanted softer more settle make-up but also having her eyes pop out. Therefore, on the top lids I stuck with  earthy tones and gave her eyes a pop-out by using an aqua blue color on the bottom. Brianna it was awesome working with you! Here are some face shots...

Styled Shoot

  After a stressful engineer year, stay at home mom has been the best thing I have done during these past four months because it is the first time in six years that I've had no worries about school or work but simply enjoyed the time I've spent with my four year old Allison. Weekly beach trips, chuck-e-cheese, movies, dinners, shopping, Castle Park, manicures, endless play time...you name it we have done it all.  But that is not all, I have also enhanced my cooking skills last week I made chillaquilles but this time I did not burn the tortilla's. Aside, from all that I got to collaborate with awesome Fernanda from Pose Photography and with our new rockin' model Shiany Aguero on this styled shoot which we had been planning for months but for some odd circumstances we keep postponing. Until last Monday of course, were we also faced a few obstacles...first of all, I was quite stressed out because not only was my phone not working but on my way there the main road was closed due to high winds so I had to take a crazy detour which delayed me half an hour, Shiany was stuck in traffic, and Fernanda began a new job which let her out later than expected. Luckily, we all managed to make it on site around the same time and everything worked out because Fernanda was able to capture these amazing shots, Shiany rocked the camera, and me...I was able to work my magic. Ladies it was fantastic working with you and here is to the beginning to many more shoots together....Thank you, thank you, thank you :)
