Recently, I got invited by
Daniel Tan to be the makeup artist for his photoshoot in
Elite Studios. He's a professional photographer and
Nikon Ambassador. I was so excited to work with him again. You gotta love his refreshing works, check them
here. Thumbs up!
Gloria Cruz (hairstylist) and I arrived in A Venue 45 minutes before the appointment, so we had enough time to have our breakfast first before heading to the studio.
Minutes after we had set up our workstations, a beautiful 6-footer girl walked in
and we suddenly felt like Hobbits.
Ms. Eughie Teng (Managing Director of Elite Manila) instructed me to do natural and fresh makeup
a la "Ponds", our first model just arrived...

Meet
Lily, a young Russian model who specializes in catwalk. She told me that she's been modeling for 5 months. She's very shy and apologized that her English is very bad, but I told her not to be sorry and that maybe she can teach me some Russian words instead. She's very sweet and taught me how to say "Hi!" (
Privet!) and "How are you?" (
Kak dela?) in Russian. She was giggling when I was trying to repeat the pronunciations, I hope it don't sound bad! But I'm glad the Russian beauty loosen up while I was doing her makeup.
