Like not much difference from that list. Haa...

On the day of the photoshoot which coincides with our 4th anniversary,

0930-1000:
Try gowns. Try gowns. Try more gowns. Finalise selection. Mr koh sit down read magazines, chit-chat with photographer.

1000-1100:
Make-up. Super long session of make-up. First layer of ampoule. Wait for it to dry. Then apply foundation. Shape the eyebrows. Apply eye-shadow, then mascara, then fake eyelashes.

Was so worried that my eyes would balloon with the mascara, coz told the MUA I'm allergic to some brands of mascara. Had bad experience with mascara before. Eyes swell up so much back then. But the swelling came only in the evening. Ever since then, I've never used mascara on my eyes. Anyway, she asked if I wanted to try hers. I thought well, ok, at most swell up at night. Haa... At least can look pretty for the next few hours during photoshoot. Really 爱美不要命. Hee.

Then it's left eye touch up, right eye touch up; left eye touch up, right eye touch up... Seems never-ending. Finally the most dreaded mascara, which she applied only at the tips of my eyelashes. A pinch of painful stings on the eyes. Tried to bear with it. Then cannot liaoz. Haiz... No choice but to remove some of the mascara nearer to the eye. When she put on the fake eyelashes, I thought I looked pretty wired coz my eyes looked so big. Hahahaa...

The cheeks and lips were fast. And ta-duh... funny-looking me in the mirror.

Meanwhile mr koh found his gold-coloured vest and balck coat. And he sat down to chit-chat with the photographer again.

1100-1130:
Mr koh's turn to make-up. Haa... His eyebrows were shaped too.

1130-1230:
Actual photoshoot. Me too short. Stood on piles of magazines + my high heels. Tedious man. This is only Round 1. My own casual blue dress. Mr koh wore his long-sleeved grey topman shirt which I bought for him.

1230-1330:
Round 2. Changed into wedding gown and more poses with different make-up and hairstyle. Simple halter-necked wedding gown. Different from what I looked at last time. This had lots of beads and embriodery. And I thought I looked quite well. Haa... The last time I tried a halter gown I looked horrible. Wierd... Mr koh wore a white shirt, and a balck coat with gold vest. Haa... Can pretend to be some rich guy.

1330-1400:
I thought it was Round 3, but no. Changd into evening gown and lunch break. After which, make-up and hairstyling again. Dark maroon/red evening gown. Very pretty. Had a hard time breathing after I squeezed into the coset-like dress. But I like its long tail, sweep here sweep there during photoshoot. Haa... Can't eat much being 'squeezed' in the evening gown.

1400-1430: Rest time. More chit chat with everyone.

1430-1530: Round 3. Couldn't smile anymore. Mouth very cramped.

1545: Changed back to my own clothes. Photographer let us view the raw samples on his comp. Wow, nice pics! Time to balek kampung. Tired liaoz... MUA was fantasic. Even give me extra fake eyelashes and sponge and told me I could use them at my Bridal Studio when I'm doing my ROM make-up. so sweet of her. In case those who don't know, I didn't have to pay for this photoshoot. I won it in a contest from a bridal magazine. And I usually thought free stuff won't be good quality. Man, I was wrong. So tempted to cancel my other contract and signed on with them instead. Good customer service doesn't come easy. She even called me tdy to check that my eyes were ok. Will discuss with mr koh.

Posed in 3 styles altogether.

Brought my digicam along, but mr koh forgot to take it out during my gown selection, make-up preparation, so no pics. *sianz* Next round go Taiwan for Outdoor Photoshoot must remind him. Super forgetful guy. Can't wait to see my album next year.

Anyway pic of my pretty shoes that I'm going to use for my ROM.





















Watch my space for more photos upcoming!
