active beauty...

trading in her army uniform and rifle for some sparkle and glam, mariana is a true natural gem. beyond her beauty, she serves as a specialist in our national armed forces...who would've guessed all that elegance and poise was hidden underneath the camouflage! she made the perfect model for our winter 2011 campaign.

...we'd like to give special thanks to all the courageous men and women out there serving our country and keeping our nation safe...our prayers are with you and your family during this holiday season and throughout the year...xo, m&t

loving locks from mykala...

growing her hair out since the 6th grade, mykala made the bold decision to transform her look and cut off 18” of her beautiful blond hair to support the wonderful non-profit organization, locks of love . and we love her for it!

to give makayla a new fresh look, we gave her subtle highlights and a long a-line cut to frame her face. loose soft waves were created to show off the highlights and perfect an effortless style. we played up her eyes with hues of forest green, strong liner, lush lashes and kept everything else simple and natural. makayla’s inner beauty just shined...doesn’t the act of giving look so good on her!?!

as cali cuts makayla’s hair for the first time in 15+ years, our assistant, ace, provides emotional support through the transformative process. way to go mykala...you did it!

the leung twins by mimi & taylor

our talented and good friends, emily & jessica leung, founders of hey lady (wedding shoes designed for style and comfort) were looking to update their bio photos with some new photos to capture their bright personalities. we couldn't resist treating them to a beauty re-charge before capturing it all on camera. we started with a cut and color to help warm up their look and to add texture for ease of styling. for makeup, we used soft hues of peach and gray with emphasis on eyes by adding lush lush lashes! gotta love the lashes!

These beautiful rings emily & jessica wore was a gift to themselves when they had reached a milestone within their business. What a great idea?! Hmmn, think we're overdue for a milestone gift...! :)

some behind the scene shots to capture the twin's fun and lively personalities.

Couldn't have gotten much done that day without our helpful little assistant, alyssa (aka georgina - her alter ego stage name)!

sedona by mimi & taylor | behind the scenes

sedona from our 2011 fall campaign was the perfect model to pull off this moroccan stylized photo shoot. we transformed her look from sleek-elegance to nature's effortless beauty.
