Karen French Photography and Design Visage = Beautiful

 We have had the pleasure of working with Karen French (of Karen French Photography) for many many years now. Her style of photography always makes the brides shine. Today will showcase a few of the brides we did together in 08.

This is Denise. She and Ricardo were married October 12, 08 in Torrance. Lauren was her artist, and they choose to do a very classic hairstyle. The front is clean and shows Denise’s pretty face. The eyes were a bit smoky with a lip tone lip color.

 

Here we have Kristen…..she and Andrew were married August 30th, 08 at the unique Rancho Las Lomas. It was all organized by our friend and coordinator Melody Walker

Sabrina was the artist for Kimberly and she chose to wear her hair all down. Which is very popular now, although I do caution you to work with a very experienced artist for this style. Seems easier…..but will it stay all day..etc. 

 

Dana was the artist for Kimberly. She and Jason were married June 22, 08 in Marina Del Rey.

 

This is one of my favorite hair styles…half up half down. It gives the elegant look of a wedding and something for your veil and hair jewelry to be secure, yet it also gives the casual hair down feeling.

 

 Finally we have Jen. She and Mike were married August 2, 08 in Laguna Beach. Susan Mcdonald was the wiz that coordinated the day.

 

 I hope you enjoyed our collections of Karen French/Design Visage brides……see you tomorrow.

Yun plus Shenyuan = Xinchun (Audrey)

O how fun it is to be able to present this family. Yun was one of Design Visage’s beautiful brides in 2005 and she has been coming to see our esthetistician ever since. We consider Yun part of our family and it have been such a pleasure seeing her family grow, now there is Xinchun which we call Audrey.

 

Here is the story: Yun met Shenyuan in China when they were in college. Shenyuan had a crush on Yun, although he knew his friend did as well…so nothing happened. Yun went to the U.K. for her masters. She was alone and lonely, Shenyuan called frequently! He made a trip to the U.K. and begin to pursue Yun. 5 months later they were engaged. Yun returned to China where Shenyuan came to visit a few times, even though it was risky for his U.S. return. But she was worth it!!! My husband is from Italy, I understand first hand the immigration challenge. Well as you can see it all worked out, and Design Visage had the pleasure of being a part of the wedding. Take a look at our dear friends wedding.

Go Elysium……

Today I have the great pleasure of writing about some wonderful friends and terrific business people. In fact the reason I am able to even create this blog is due to my good and patient friend Julie. She had faith in me and look Julie….I can’t stop talking…blogging every day. Guess I have a lot of hot air. But seriously we have soooo many brides to show off. And of course this make-up and hair we did on Julie for their  company pictures. Look how fantastic she looks.

The fabulous Jasmine Star shot the photos.

I can’t say enough about Elysium Productions, they are professional, knowledgeable, very techie, and most of all very now. Take a look at their work. You will not be disappointed.

Next year julie, bring the whole gang to the salon…even Alex!  We love you, and love working with you.
