Happy Friday everyone!!! I have been DYING to post this Alice in Wonderland themed bridal fashion shoot I did last month!!! It was my first time helping put together a stylized shoot like this and I was nervous and excited at the same time. But, with a team of AMAZING vendors, our vision came to life so beautifully. We wanted to re-tell the classic story with a dreamy and whimsical fashion and bridal twist.

Besides photography, I was also in charge of casting and wardrobe! It was so fun to put on a few different hats for this shoot. We casted the incredibly professional and beautiful Lauren Olipra as our “Alice”. Her dress here was provided by the wonderful bridal boutique of Jinny’s Bridal.

Lauren made such a stunning model. Her hair accessories was beautifully crafted by The Treasured Petal Boutique and her hair and makeup were impeccably done by the always fabulous All Made Up Team.

When I first approached Christina Wright of Simply Modern Weddings and Helen Tao of Flowers by Helen with the idea behind the shoot, I told them we HAD to have a tea party. And WOW, did they deliver?! We had the most AMAZING tablescape. Thank you to these fabulous ladies for their incredible designs and inspiration:

Delicious cupcakes were provided by Sugar | Tart Desserterie.

Darla Marie Designs provided the most darling paper goods for our shoot.

Um yeah…Helen Tao of Flowers by Helen is amazing. She came up with this idea of floating floral teapots!!!

Seriously I almost ate these french macrons from Layer Cake Bakery. I knew Christina would have killed me though .

The girls and I had a blast shopping for tea cups and other table items at various vintage stores.

Our twist on Alice and her books. Check out these STUNNING hair and sash accessories by The Treasured Petal!



I just love the flying cards that Simply Modern Weddings thought of!

One of my favorites of the day:

What a better way to start off the week than with another beautiful boudoir?! Waking you up on this HOT Monday is the stunning Miss Foxy. She is Miss Foxy for obvious reasons, but also because she reminds me a lil’ of another hottie by the name of Megan Fox with her gorgeous brunette hair and piercing green eyes. Miss Foxy was definitely no diva though and like all of my clients, such as pleasure to work with.

Special thanks to one of my favorite makeup & hair artists, Miss Angelina from the All Made Up Team for helping make Miss Foxy super foxy. It’s always so wonderful working with the All Made Up Team!

Special thanks to David Do for second shooting with me again .

Lien’s makeup was impeccably done by the AMAZING Angelina of the All Made Up Team:

Lien & I are both die hard Twilight fans so I had to sneak this shot in .

Lien wore a traditional Vietnamese dress for the tea ceremony:

LOVE this moment between Lien & her father:

It is customary for family to present the bride & groom with gifts such as jewelry on their wedding day.

A stunning bride, isn’t she?!

Love this shot:

I usually don’t like to use bad words on my blog. But I think the only word to describe the guys in theses next couple of shots taken by David is: BADA$$.

Again they are not models – they just look like models .

Gorgeous light for a gorgeous couple!

One of my faves for the day:

Some reception details:

Lien & David had taken ballroom dancing classes and surprised everyone during their first dance.

Thanks Miss California for representing our state so wonderfully .

Once again, thank you to the amazing Angelina from the All Made Up Team for doing another incredible job on hair & makeup.

Have a good weekend everyone!

I feel fortunate to meet new, wonderful people in my profession, but I feel even more blessed when I get the opportunity to capture memorable moments for those very dear to me. Mirei is my beautiful best friend and I was honored to take these engagement photos for her and Jimmy. I couldn’t be happier for these two – I have happily witnessed their love grow and develop into something so amazing. As her maid of honor and as good as multi-tasking as I am, I won’t be able to hold a bouquet and camera in each hand, so I am thrilled that Mirei chose the talented Brian Khang to take pics for their big day. Just as exciting, Mirei chose the All Made Up Team to make us all look amazing on her wedding day. Here’s a sneak peek of how gorgeous Mirei will look, as Angelina of the All Made Up Team did another incredible job on Mirei’s makeup & hair for the engagement session.

Mirei & Jimmy are two of the happiest people I know, so I thought something like these fun pink balloons would add that special touch to their engagement session. We ended up having a lot of fun with the balloons, especially Jimmy . Without further adieu, here is the happy couple:

Who says Asian men can’t jump?! LOL

Jimmy getting carried away with the balloons….lol…I crack myself up!

I had a couple one time ask me why I take photos of shoes….um…give me cute fuchsia heels with cute fuchsia ribbons like these and I will spend the whole day taking photos of these shoes:

I just loved using the parking structure for some of our shots:

So fierce:

We found this really cool mural and I just had to use it:

I decided to give being in front of the camera a try for my 29th birthday. I always feel weird looking at myself in photos, but I figured I might as well do something for myself, especially while I can still get away with looking young and frolicking in the grass…lol. I always wanted to do that! So I asked the talented Brian Khang to help capture some fabulicious memories of me and boy did her ever! I was in total awe when I woke up this morning and found that Brian had already posted some on his blog. I couldn’t decide which ones I liked best so I posted them all. The light was just so delicious! Thank you Brian & Helen for such a fun & splendid shoot!

Thank you to the amazing Angelina of the amazing All Made Up Team for her incredible job on my hair & makeup. I know it’s hard to believe, but I don’t wake up looking like this…lol.

The location and light were just soooo yummy!

I borrowed my friend’s old skool camera as a prop for the shoot. I also brought along my dorky sample album .

I vacationed all summer with my Jason Mraz hat and just had to incorporate it into our session.

This is how I prepare for my shoots – with meditation.

The boudoir is back! A few weeks ago I got to meet the incredibly sexy and funny Tracey. We had a blast and it never feels like work when you are having fun! Tracey is getting married next month and wanted a little something, something for her husband-to-be! Judging by how stunning Tracey looks in these photos, I’m sure the hubs will be happy Once again, all make up & hair was beautifully done by the All Made Up Team. I can’t say enough about this amazing team of ladies!

P.S. The blog layout has been updated, but more about that later – don’t want to take away from Tracey’s sexy post! For now, just enjoy the bigger and better photos

Here we go!
