eyelash extensions

Maria Rahmany of Van City Makeup Artist gave me eyelash extensions the other day and now I am in love with them! I was a bit nervous because I thought it would be painful or uncomfortable (or that I'd get my eyes glued shut.. yikes!!), but I just about fell asleep a couple times while she was putting them in, now I can't even feel that I have them!

I thought I'd blog about them because they're perfect for weddings (I wish I'd know about them a few months ago!) because they look WAY more natural than most fake lashes I've seen. And they last three weeks, which is a bonus too!

Here's a few before/afters that Maria took for her blog..





Here's one more that Jin took yesterday (and I'm not wearing any make-up here, just the lashes)

Stacie & Warren

Stacie and Warren were up for anything, which was great! Their cute little dog Luna also came along for the session (I love including pets in the photos) and she was so sweet

Ucluelet

We decided to escape the city for a couple days and headed to Ucluelet... We totally lucked out with the weather and enjoyed a couple lazy days :)

We also ate reallllly well! (one of my favourite things about travel/getting away!) There's a bunch of new restaurants in town, a couple of our favourites were the "Offshore Seafood Restaurant" and "Rooster's Cafe". If you're going over anytime soon, definitely make sure you eat at both!!









I kept myself busy for ages looking around for what the sea had left behind.. it's pretty amazing the patterns that the sea and wind can make in the sand.









This was the view from our room at night!!
