Thank you shout out on Facebook:

To CJ Bae Siepka thank you for transforming me into a non-stop smiling & blushing bride! You are so sweet and yet so serious when it comes to making sure your clients leave you looking beaming, bright and beautiful. From my hair to my make-up to our stunning bridesmaids, you made sure everyone looked and felt their best. Thank you for staying a little longer even though you had to rush off to another wedding!

back of DO

This style has been VERY popular this wedding season. something loose yet still romantic and secured. Definitely a good DO for a outdoor Hawaii wedding

Congratulations Rhonda Moore! At first, she was apprehensive about an asian girl doing a "do" with her micro-braids, but at the end of the bridal session she was pleasantly surprised and LOVED her look! She's going to send professional photos, but I wanted to show in "real time" what her outcome was.

And who said maternity can't be sexy??! Mitchell Chan of Love Story Weddings Photography and I had such a great time w Se and Noel Famy, due to expect in late July. We can't wait to meet you Baby Tristan Famy!

this style is one of my favs. bridesmaid had shoulder length hair and wondered if it could go up... ^_^
this is a romantic, loose, no frills look. keeps you cool through out the long humid day.

one of the most popular requests... the smokey look.
I love giving my brides/bridesmaids this style of makeup. it's not too much, yet it's sultry, sexy yet classy.

tip: "smokey look" ranges from person to person, artist to artist. so it's always best to have a trial session done before your wedding day to make sure that you and the artist are on the same page.

Hey all~! Sorry it's been a while since the last post, it's been a crazy holiday season!
This is a new style I've come up with at a wedding I did a couple weeks ago. This bridesmaid came with a picture and I added a lil more "twist" to it, no pun intended! lol~
Remember that pictures are important to have with you when you're getting hair and make up done. It shows a visual, a stepping stone in the direction of what you're looking for!

I had a bride and groom come all the way from the Netherlands to get married here in Hawaii at the Kahala Hotel and Resort. They were such a great couple. Thank you Liem & Cyreil!
