Can You Say Ulzzang?

Can You Say Ulzzang?

Full album [here]

models/styling/concept: Joanah Uy & Alandia Enomoto
make-up/styling/concept: Michelle Uy
photos/post-processing/direction: Anne Lorraine Uy (me)

A few months ago Al and Mich invited me to a casual shoot with the concept of ulzzang. If you’ve been around the asian Internet scene I’m sure you’ve encountered this word at least once. If now you find yourself totally ignorant, you can click here to know more.

I don’t have a photo of Mich doing the make-up. πŸ™ But she’s getting more and more awesome at it. I’m really proud of her! She’s a great artist as well and has been doing her own shoots lately since she’s off from tons of Chemical Engineering schoolwork. Keep it up Mich! *hearts*

Starbucks Caramel Cream Frappuccino.

We went around the places near our houses just to shoot Alandia and Joan for fun. Paseo Arcenas was fairly near so we headed there first. I missed the Caramel Cream Frap so I grabbed one while shooting. That’s me waiting for our next move while Mich did her shots on the girls.

These girls actually have a good wig collection, I’ve noticed.

Mich’s younger sister, Joanah Uy.

Their adopted sister, Alandia Enomoto.

Not only wigs but cool footwear too.

After a few shots here we drove out since the sky started to dim and rain (ah, the weather lately…).

But on the bright side, it’s a good sign that it’s almost Christmas!

We ended up at Autofocus, a car shop which is owned by Mich’s uncle. They actually had a really cool store display but I failed to take nice photos of it since I didn’t bring my UWA lens.

Look at all those shiny rims~

Posing with a cherry red Toyota Yaris.

Bokeh bokeh, baby.

Thanks to Caleb Uy’s dad (Sorry I dunno his name. I’ve been working with a lot of Uys lately but it’s weird that I’m not even closely related to any of them) for being so game! I think he really enjoyed watching us shoot the girls. At least it wasn’t a normal boring work day for some people at the shop.

Came and entertained!
Probably not the usual girls you see posing with cars huh.

    The blonde one is Fucken ugly for whoever said she looked good/cute…she looked as if she was a boy, trying to wear makeup and failed terribly!!!
