Belinda & Jason

It was during the Christmas rush when I received a message from my sister, Caren if I was willing to do a pre-nup at 6:00 in the morning for one of her clients.  My Ate Caren is a photographer, and a very excellent one.  She's great to have on family trips for the company and the nice pictures!  

One early December morning, I met Belinda for the first time, and what a wonderful person she is!  I've never seen a person smile so much!  She welcomed me into her home along with her babies...Lhasa Apsos.  I've never seen so many of them!  There were at least ten of them.  I lost count, but they were so adorable!  I wanted to squish the puppies!  Then, she showed me into one of her rooms to see the pictures of her dogs, which Ate Caren took.

Afterwards, we went to her room and I did her makeup while her lovely babies were surrounding us.  Being the mama of a basset hound, we hit it off immediately.  If you do ever get to meet Belinda, you'll discover that she really is a wonderfully warm person, and one of those effortless beauties.

Anj & Mark

On my first year as a teacher, I met Anj who was to be my first and only head teacher and very good friend.  She is an amazing woman with a beautiful heart and needless to say, an excellent teacher!  It goes without saying that I met Mark, the love of her life.

I still remember the day Anj showed me the sparkling ring on her finger, which sent me jumping and screaming all around a tiny corridor in school. (It was a good thing class was over by then).  After my joyful screaming, she proposed to me and said, "Will you...do my makeup?"  How could I refuse!  Of course I said, "Yes, I will!"

Thank you Anj & Mark for making me a part of your special day!
