Color can make all the difference in making your haircut really POP! This custom multidimensional coloring technique is both interesting and flattering to a rounder face. Next time you come in for a haircut, try some highlighting around your hairline to brighten up your face! 

Shoot Em ' Up : Kristen

Honestly, its a labor of love what I do and today proved it. Carrying a duffel bag of clothes, cosmetic cases and photography equipment up Mt. Rubidoux in Riverside is only for the hardcore artists such as ourselves! Everything for the vision!

Kristen is not a model; but wouldn't know it by looking at these shots! Kristen is a beautiful girl; she had such a shy genuineness about her that really transcended onto camera. Thank you Kristen for shooting with us it was a pleasure to work with you!

The right photographer, a little hair and make up polishing, beautiful girl = magic !

Jessica & Chris are just about as adorable as a couple can get. Jessica had the fearless turn-up-the-glamor attitude that I just love to have in a client! She chose a beautifully romantic side swept loose curl look that complimented her gorgeous dress so perfectly. Making my job just as easy as it can get with such pretty girl.

Congratulations & Best Wishes Jessica & Chris! Thank you for letting me be a part of your day.

From the very first consultation Jessica knew exactly how she wanted to look on her big day; much like she knew that she was marrying the man of her dreams. She was glowing; you could see her enthusiasm and feel the love! I truly enjoyed working with her and her mother, they looked absolutely beautiful! 

Felicidades Jessica Y Manuel

There's no I in Team... Assisting!

A few weeks ago I had the privilege of assisting my good friend and celebrity make up artist Bulmaro of BulsEye Makep. Bulmaro is a wonderfully genuine person who always gives of himself without question which is why he has been an industry leader for over 20 years and his reputation speaks for itself; and if you can afford his talent you can be sure it will be well worth every penny!  Which is why I was so delighted that he thought of me when putting together his team for a wedding event. It was an awesome day and a tremendous learning experience for which I am truly grateful!

Shoot Em' Up: Nicole

I was really so happy with the way this shoot turned out! I hope you enjoy this one, I did!

I was inspired by the Jeremy Scott's NY Fashion Week look.

This is some dangerous liner! (gals don't try this in public, or do! lol)

I was going for a futuristic look for this shoot so I wanted the hair to have a lot of texture. I did 3 twisted cornrows on each side, 3 ponytails that were teased and pinned under to make "geisha-like" buns to create height and the entire bang and crown area was teased, laid over the buns leaving the pointed ends loose. Oh and I think I threw in a pinned victory roll on the right side (pictured below)
