The All Made Up Team had another great and fun workshop we did with Jasmine Star Photographer at her photographer seminar that focused on branding for photographers called “The Workshop” by Jasmine Star.  The photographer workshop targeted intermediate and experienced photographers who wanted to learn how to better brand themselves.  The photographer workshop focused in finding yourself and your style and learn creative and effective ways to brand your signature style and your business better.  The photographer workshop was located in Southern California, (Socal, CA) in the city of Irvine.

Though the day was warm in sunny Southern California for our lovely models below, Melinda and Vern, but it was bearable for all.  This was Jasmine Star’s third workshop and I enjoyed working on all the make-up and hair themes, looks, and designs with her.  She is a FABULOUS photographer and below are some the photos I posted on my blog from Jasmine Star’s blog.

The theme from this workshop was vintage, and really worked around Melinda’s beautiful Monique Lhuillier signature style lace couture wedding gown and incorporated lots of gold in her accessories.  The Monique Lhuillier wedding gown was elegant, classic, and timeless on Melinda.  The form fitting delicate Monique Lhuillier signature lace dress fit Melinda like a glove and essentuateed every curve on her tall slender physique.

Floral bouquet was vintage inspired  by Carissa @ JLDesigns.com

Hi Everyone!

I just wanted to share the next personal makeup workshop on 7/12/09 from (9am-1pm) in Westminster.  Check out our new 30 second video commercial for the upcoming makeup workshop.  Here is the direct link if you have any problems viewing it: http://vimeo.com/5090468

TheMakeupWorkshop.com Commerical Promo Video from Vivian Tran (AllMadeUpTeam.com) on Vimeo.

Since I got my new HD Flip camera I’ve been been making an effort to record and use it at as many events as possible. And this past weekend I had the opportunity to hear Leyna Nguyen, a Vietnamese-American News Achor/Reportor for KCAL-TV, speak at the VANGusa.org (Leadership Conference).

This video is from a panel interview at the VANGusa.org Leadership Conference, about charity and giving back to your community and people in need of help. Love Across the Ocean.org is Leyna Nguyen’s charity organization that helps give back to the people of Vietnam.  Leyna also shares in this video her family background, family history, learning to “give back” at an early age, giving back to the community, and how rewarding it is to experience how GREAT it feels to be able to give back to not only to just your family and friends, but through a charity to strangers who are in need of your help.

I had the opportunity to hear Leyna Nguyen speak this past weekend at the VANGusa.org, a Vietnamese American Leadership Conference and learned more about her Love Across the Ocean.org charity organization,  Love Across the Ocean.org is a charity organization that gives back to the people of Vietnam.  Please visit her website for more information and please watch the video below about her family history, struggles, and how she started her organization.

One of my favorite quotes from her video was “I want to GIVE until I’m RICH” and that little phrase has so much meaning to me…and if you’ve “GIVEN” before with all your heart, soul, and efforts…you know how good it feels after you have, then you will understand how powerful this little phrase means…

A couple of weeks ago The All Made Up Team did a natural and soft bridal beauty makeover for one of our bridal models, here are some more teaser photos of what we did for our ‘Blushing Bride‘ theme.  We kept the colors neutral and soft, and kept the pink and brown tones, and kept this look clean and simple.  Hope you enjoy our wedding day and bridal beauty makeover.

For those of you who know me well since I was young know…”I love cars“, and I would go to car shows either in Anaheim or Los Angeles every year.   I think my uncles really got me into cars when I was young, they would take me to car show conventions and from there on I was hooked!  I would remember coming home after the show and dreaming about driving the car and having my own…heck, I still do now when I see an NSX on the streets!  Unfortunately, my favorite car, the NSX, was discontinued in 2005…*sniff sniff**crying..crying**….

Anyways, my friends, Keith Selle Photography and Duc Pham from TaycoLayo Photography, decided to come down for the Hot Import Nights Car Show in Anaheim a couple of weeks ago for some business, and Kim @ La Soiree Production and I decided to hang out with them for the the afternoon.   I have to tell you I haven’t been to an import event for over 10 years and lots have changed.  One cool thing I saw at the car show and that I’ve never seen live before is ‘Drifting‘….the last time I heard about that and seen that was from the movie Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift…LOL!

Here are some pictures from the show…from my camera and Duc’s camera.

I thought this video called “How to Look Great in Photographs“, I thought it was very humorous when I came acrossed it and watched it today.  I would like to share some of the tips they have to offer and suggested about what to wear during a photo shoot and what not to wear, what to do and what not to do while taking a photograph.  The video was very well put together and humorous with helpful tips for your next engagement photo shoot, wedding day photo shoot, or modeling photo shoot.
