Thomas Fogarty Winery Wedding~Teresa & Brian

It was a super stormy day at the Thomas Fogarty Winery when Teresa & Brian got married.  I remember driving there and both sides of highway 35 was covered with snow.  The bad weather had prompted a closure on highway 84 and Teresa patiently called her guests one by one to inform them to take an alternate route as I was styling her hair and putting on her makeup.  Teresa was most concerned about her look being natural.  She and Brian had attended a wedding before where Brian couldn't recognize the bride because of her dark smoky makeup.  And he'd jokingly told her not to wear makeup for their wedding day.  Brian kept saying how beautiful she was when he saw Teresa for the first time when they did their "first look" photos.  It goes to show again that makeup and hairstyling is necessary for such a special occasion!  I was most impressed by how well Teresa's hairstyle defied against the stormy weather. Congrats again, Teresa & Brian.

San Ramon Engagement Shoot

What an honor to work alongside a super talented photographer three times in a month!!  I was lucky to work with Augie Chang again on an engagement shoot in Livemore near Martinelli Event Center.  The couple both loved cowboy boots, check out these awesome images.  

San Francisco Engagement Shoot

I had the pleasure of beautifying Marta for her engagement shoot in San Francisco with one of my favorite photographers Augie Chang. Marta is a model like natural beauty so enhancing that was an easy task!  I used peaches and nude tones and accentuated her eyes with lots of individual lashes.  I stay with my brides for the entire shoot and love the process of watching them goof around in front of the camera!  Although it started raining, touch up was minimal.  Enjoy these gorgeous images!

We were FEATURED on Style Unveiled!

I was ecstatic to find out that JBeautique has been featured on Style Unveiled Premier Wedding Planning Website not once but twice!  The first wedding featured was from August of last year at Villa Montalvo in Saratoga, CA. EJ and Linh were highschool sweethearts that have been dating for 10 years before finally deciding to tie the knot.  They did a superb job in picking all the beautiful details of this wedding, from the green and chocolate theme colors to finding the perfect vendors to execute their vision of their special day.

The second wedding that was featured was from October of last year at Julia Morgan Ballroom in the Merchant Exchange Building in San Francisco.  Amanda and Steve's wedding had all the great cultural details that reflect who they were and made their wedding extra special.  The wedding theme color was burgundy and it was carried through out in a tasteful manner.  They had a special 5 lions dance when Steven received Amanda at her house.  You may view Amanda & Steven's wedding on the link below.
