This summer, I was able to work with the amazing DollFace Cosmetics. They have wonderful make-up palettes in a wide range that’s easy on the pocket without compromising quality! Check out these two beautiful Youtube make-up gurus’ creations on sweet and sultry looks.
Noe Mae Villa-gee goes sweet for Crystal Aberasturi.(who’s currently going for Miss Mandaue. Here’s how you can support her)
Maricarl Janah goes sultry for Steffi Aberasturi.
Natural beauty sisters.In honesty, this was one of the most difficult shoots I’ve ever done. The weather just did NOT cooperate. It was always gloomy, murky and sudden drizzles of rain would come and go. We would shoot for a while then hide under trees, shoot again then use the reflector as shade. The natural lighting certainly did not make things go smoothly, but I tried to save the photos as much as I could. Certainly glad they turned out well enough.
Keeping it Sweet.Despite all the obstacles, it was a lot of fun working with Pearl (very cool owner of DFC), Janah, Noe and John. Lots of laughs especially with my comedian assistant/lighting master around. We had lunch at Sunburst together with the models’ mom after hair and make-up. I have to say these girls are very lucky to be supported so much by their parents. Dad drove them to the assembly place and mom keeps watch of them all the way. Oh, and mom also plays talent agent.
Bringing it Sultry.
Fly like a butterfly~Styling was all by Jackaye of WAGW. I’m loving their floral ensembles this season! I’ve made a recent purchase myself at the store too. Got myself a boho beach dress fit for summer. Teehee.
Flower child.
It’s a wrap!If you guys are interested, here’s a BTS video. Props to Janah for the editing and compilation. More power to local Youtube make-up gurus!
Will catch up on some work to be done these coming months. I’ve yet to shoot my photostory 🙁 Other than that, I’ll be shooting for the summer campaign of a local shoe brand and an exhibit that will be on display at the SM Art Gallery. To top it off, I have to work on my travel photos from my recent trip to America, the Beautiful! It’s only the start of the year but I’ve had a lot of surprises already. Thank you Lord. 🙂 Hope everyone is having a great summer too.
wow! I've seen the first photo around but the rest of the photos are even more awesome! I'm a really a fan… I followed you through GFC – Hollie and through Twitter as redberryaha. I'm a fan of noe and janah as well. hehe
