Jason Mordeno Photography

When Jason sent me the last set of photos from our shoot this spring, the first thing I thought was, “Damn, I miss my long hair!” But then again, it only looked like this for the photo shoot and not any of the other days during the week. I actually just came back from a … Continue Reading

Mother & daughter shoot at Shinjuku Gyoen

My mom leaves for California tomorrow, so tonight was the last night I got to spend with her and my grandparents. I’m so glad we were able to do a mother-daughter photo shoot last week at Shinjuku Gyoen, courtesy of Paint with Stars photography. My mom said she was nervous before the shoot, but we … Continue Reading

  Sorry for not posting in a week! The office move I mentioned in my last post and getting used to the new location kind of took up my energy… but I have been working on updating my blog and start-up for my Youtube channel. I appreciate you all for being so patient and supportive!! … Continue Reading

Transformation

I made a quick blog post last month about this shoot, and finally the photos are here! What a transformation I did for this – a short, blonde wig with a pretty bold lip. At first, I doubted a blonde anything would look good on me, but Jason already knew before I put that thing … Continue Reading

Monochrome

Second set from the photo shoot mentioned in my previous post. This is a completely different theme and look, which I chose, from the clothes to the hair & makeup. I really wanted to wear this cropped white shirt from my work, Le Ciel Bleu, with my sarouel pants that I found for a reasonable … Continue Reading

Redhead and freckles

It’s been a while since I posted some of my modeling work. These are the first set from a photo shoot I did about a month ago with two very talented artists. Most of you probably don’t know, but I do have a sprinkle of freckles that aren’t as noticeable as the added spray of … Continue Reading

It’s a crime

Two completely different looks from my photo shoot with Greg Brown Photography. I’ve always wanted to do the one-glove thing like MJ – I will forever try to strive for his swag. And this tropical-looking jumpsuit was a perfect choice for a summer photo shoot. And I love how the makeup artist matched the colors … Continue Reading

I am a dark cloud, swelling with rain

I did this photoshoot about a month ago so I’m happy the photos finally arrived. I hope I pulled off the Audrey Hepburn-inspired look my stylist was going for in the turban and peacock earrings. And I realized I tend to title my blog posts with song lyrics.. It might be cliche but so what. … Continue Reading

You and me

This is probably one of the most interesting places I’ve done a photo shoot. We were able to use this little cafe in Shimo-kitazawa freely because of the photographer. And I loved the cute props he brought for the shoot – a portable record player, his vinyl collection, old magazines and photo books. It’s just … Continue Reading

A Japanese spring

Good morning lovelies! I just received the images from my most recent photo shoot, a spring-themed Japanese kimono shoot. I had to post a few of my favorites even though there are so many that I liked! It was my first time modeling a traditional Japanese kimono for a photo shoot, but I had a … Continue Reading
