Hi there! I’ve never been a huge fan of displaying side by side “before” and “after” photos of my past clients as I thought that it seemed too straightforward. However, I had a change of heart as I started to put myself in my client’s shoe and think about your daunting makeup artist search. Wedding […]
This was my 3rd time working Jeremy Chou, our talented photographer of this editorial shoot. The time before this? We were in Tuscany and he was my wedding photographer. I’ll write about our wedding in another post. Jeremy has always been awesome, and especially fast with his turn around time, which is a dream for […]
This bridal shoot in Tuscany was done just about 6 weeks after my wedding. I was in Italy and France twice in 2 months. Last year, 2018 was the most busy and eventful year of my life! I had my beautiful Tuscany wedding here at Villa Montanare in May; then my family and I flew […]
One of the prettiest brides ever, Meg, whose wedding recently graced Style Me Pretty’s pages. Jasmine Lee did such an amazing job capturing this beautiful couple. And our rockstar planner Frances, Charmed Events made us all convinced that mauve is perhaps one of the most romantic colors of the year.
This style shoot was by far one of the prettiest shoots I’ve ever done. We had 3 beautiful models and each has her own unique look. My senior artist, Grace, and I powered through the makeup & hair process for all 3 models in just 3hrs. I did the main model’s hair + makeup while […]
From our amazing photographer Nathalie Cheng: “Inspired by the colorful homes and romantic scenery of San Francisco where we call home, Jessica of Blushing Joy Events and I teamed up to create an intimate, vibrant editorial for the modern, city bride. We were drawn to clean, bright backdrop The Upstairs of Central Kitchen, a San Francisco […]
Below are some examples of the styles I’ve done for Engagement hair & makeup in the past. I’ll do my best to go back and look for more Engagement shoot examples to share. In general, I think a camera-ready yet natural or a soft glam makeup is best. In terms of choosing a hairstyle, all […]

It was one year after our wedding in Italy that we had this anniversary shoot taken, with no one else rather than my talented and lovely industry friend Jasmine Lee. You might be surprised but this photoshoot was my husband’s idea, because for one, he loved San Francisco City Hall (and frowned about not having […]

In my opinion, when it comes to bridal portrait (and far away shots too, don’t get me wrong), Jasmine is probably one of the very best … even when there’s not enough lighting, really tight space, or extremely tight timeline, she always manages to capture that glowing happiness of the bride! Maybe I’m slightly bias […]

That popular saying, “Happy brides are the prettiest” can’t be more true when I think of Beth!!! I’ve never met anyone more cheerful, positive, extremely generous with her smile, and more kind and thoughtful. I can go on and on… I’m blessed with a good positive circle of friends and family, but I’d take more […]
Although I’ve posted more airy and bright fine art images this past year, I’m glad I got to feature a different style of fine art photography on my blog, a more moody, quiet yet charged with deep connection and romance. This very very dear client of mine is a graphic designer with great taste and […]
Jessica Sung from Blushing Joy Events did it again! Whenever I work with Jessica, there’s this consistent feeling that I would take away with after each work day with her: calm and easy! I often wonder how did she make it so effortless? She always has this smiley face and positive energy about her. Nathalie […]

I’m sure you’ve seen a lot of Jenny’s beautiful work throughout my website here, many ethereal, romantic, fine art style images. She’s an industry friend I adore and admire. We’ve done quite a number of editorial shoots and projects together. In the last 3-4 years, I’ve seen her art and her business keep on growing […]

Love working with the talented Allen Tsai for Michelle’s wedding! I met Allen just a few weeks after my wedding last year in Italy. Yep, we are both from the U.S, but it took one long international flight to meet up and collaborated for a gorgeous photoshoot in Tuscany. Anyways, to keep it short, Allen […]
One of the most gorgeous brides, Kristina! It’s been a while but I still remember vividly how bright & perfect she looked in that Berta gown. Photographer Luna DeMare | Coordinator Ashley Brand for LVL Event Planning | Makeup & Hair Aimee & Team | Dress Designer Berta Bridal
Although I’m known for soft glam or natural makeup style, I do love doing smoky eyes for the clients who are comfortable with it or express the desire to try it. I love smoky eyes for myself and I find that smoky eyes does photographed best even for far away shots, like the photos above. […]
Carmen booked me super early on in the process. I believed she secured the date at least one year prior. By the time of her wedding, I felt like we knew each other for a long long time, like a friend already. Thank you Carmen for trusting me with your beauty! On her wedding day, […]
This old world charm inspired style shoot was one of the most interesting, enjoyable and memorable shoots. Loved Mariel Hannah‘s unique aesthetic. We had lots of unexpected surprises but all vendors pulled through and made this beautiful shoot happened. One of the surprises being that I got news that our model wouldn’t make it while […]
I love my job! I’ve been in the wedding business for more than 13 years already. Like it or not, I’ve encountered countless of unexpected situations. Therefore, I know thorough planning can help my brides a lot. It’s such a huge event, might be the biggest and the most personal event you’ll ever have to […]
I’m beyond ecstatic to see my work on front cover of My Wedding magazine, which are available on news stands May 2017. This epic collaboration is one of the best I’ve had the honor to participated in. It was a great pleasure to work among a team of wonderful & talented designers and respectable artists. […]
This styled shoot was one of my favorite shoots last year. We’re looking at amazing shots by Pearl Hsieh Photography. She is a film photographer so as you can see the images are more of fine-art quality. Look at how lush yet soft the colors are, and the softness of light. I’m a film format […]
Maybe I’m biased, but I think Vincy is one of the most young & beautiful brides ever! Her face is sweet like an angel – a natural beauty! Personality? Even more beautiful! For her makeup, there’s one huge request from this beauty, “Aimee, can you make my face less round?” That was it. She never […]
Helping Megan looking and feeling beautiful that day was my greatest joy as a makeup artist. My team and I came early to Carmel to get her and her squad ready for this big day. I enjoyed working with this beautiful nutritionist very much. She planned her own destination wedding so it wasn’t easy on her […]
I’m humbled to learn on the day of our trial that Kim always knew, years ago, that she for sure wanted me as her makeup artist for her wedding day. She said she knew about me 10+ years ago. I felt absolutely grateful! Kim loves makeup, with wow lashes and big hair, and we did […]
Isn’t this family the cutest? So happy I got to see Olivia again after I first worked with her for her Engagement session 2 years ago. This time she came for her Maternity photoshoot hair + makeup. She let me decide on the makeup look, and for hair she just wanted easy beachy kind of […]
In my opinion, skin is the number one key factor when you think about beauty in general, not just for the wedding day. When I have a client on my chair, if she has beautiful skin, my job would be much easier. It’s like having a perfect canvas to work on. I won’t need spend […]
This session remains one of my favorite engagement sessions ever! Our bride has such great taste and Vero, our lovely photographer, made it even more beautiful because she’s a style blogger herself. Check out Vero’s IG @verosuh Photographer Vero Suh
This styled shoot was named by SMP as one of the most gorgeous and inspiring shoots of the year 2017, along with 14 other styled shoots. Check us out on Style Me Pretty! We are so humbled and happy as it was one of our most enjoyable shoots last year too. The makeup was skin-focused with […]
It was such a great experience dolling up my friend Amanda for her Maternity session with Bethanie Mattioli Photography. It felt so good to help this mama feeling girly and pretty! Expecting mothers deserve a treat of beautiful hair & makeup and a photo session as much, to document this journey of motherhood. Congratulations again […]
This has got to be one of my favorite wedding styled shoots of all time. I had the pleasure to work with an amazing team of vendors in the industry and the shoot was a success! We got featured on Southern Bride magazine for their Winter/Spring 2015 issue & also on few popular wedding blogs, […]
