just the way you are. bruno mars.

currently, i am so in love with the song ‘just the way you are’ by bruno mars. the lyrics just do it for me. simple. sweet. straight to the point. just the way i like it. love singing/yelling along to this song. luckily for all of you, i do it in the privacy of my car. ;)

so on this monday morning, i dedicate this song to all of you. cause you’re amazing. just the way you are.

sigh. i really love this song.

Jina of JAC Beauty - your blog always puts me in a good mood!!! today was quite the shitty day for me xP

conniemchung - hahha. i dun hate smooth moves nance. but you are giving me good ammo. ;) jk.

nancy {so happi together} - aw. I LOVE this song. And don’t hate. but my hubs sat me down the other day when I was feeling especially nasty and played this song for me. It was sweet but turned awkward cuz he made me sit and listen to the whole song… it’s long! lol. :) I love YOU just the way you are, ConnieMChung!

christine of se.lah.ve

This is my gorgeous and talented friend Christine. She just recently launched her coordinating business Se.Lah.Ve and I couldn’t be more excited for her! We went to the same highschool so it’s pretty awesome to have a connection from the past and now, we get to talk all things weddings! So ofcourse, I was totally honored when Christine asked me to take her headshots for her new business! Christine knew exactly what she wanted. Something modern, classic and fresh. So where better than the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills. FYI. You need to clear it with the hotel’s PR department if you want to shoot there. We, on the other hand, took route B and made friends with Zachary (a guest at the hotel) and he escorted us to the rooftop. ;) Thanks Zachary!

Enjoy the pics!

Oh my goodness! LOVE these shots! I love how you can’t see her face but you know she’s laughing by her profile and body language.

Have I mentioned red is one of my favorite colors? :)

Christine looks ADORABLE here!

If this isn’t modern, classic and fresh, I don’t know what is. ;)

Gorgeous.

This shot makes me want to go somewhere tropical. Who’s down?

Thanks Christine for rockin’ it in front of my lens and for the yummy lunch at Bottega Louie! Can’t wait to see where your business takes you!

Karleen - wow- really gorgeous set! simple and elegant. great compositions.

conniemchung - adrienne! for sures! let’s get together soon! ;) lemme know when you’re free!

Adrienne Gunde - Bottega Louie!! We must set up a lunch date there soon! But in the meantime, love these shots… Christine is gorgeous & you totally seem to have captured her spirit & personality in all of them :) Especially love the first one and the 2nd to last with her red nails & the aqua of the pool – that color combo is my fave!

Ann Lee - Oh my goodness. Christine came out so incredible in every one of these photos! I guess that’s what you get when you two are paired. :)

Christine - If I haven’t said it enough, I’ll say it again…THANK YOU! But more than the wonderful pictures, thanks for being such a great support!

Amy - These are awesome Connie! I love them all!

cindee bae - dude, that picture of christine laughing made me gasp!!!!!
