This past week I had few Clients for different occasions.  I’ll tell you about the one’s I have photos of.

Linda was going to the Gala of her foundation, so she wanted to wear Luxe Glow for this special occasion for her.  I met Linda at an event last year, she saw my work and loved it and remembered me for this year’s event

Then I had Anisha, who was getting married over Memorial Day Weekend in Vermont.  She contacted me couple of month ago and was trying to figure out the whether she wanted to get her mehndi done in Manhattan or in Vermont.  I’m so glad she decided to do in Manhattan, traveling to VT is a long trip and would have costed  a lot more.  Even though it was a last minute the timing worked out perfectly.  Her fiance was German and he had many of his family and friends traveled in from Europe so it was an interesting henna night we had at her apartment.  I finished my job with a great selection of cheese, bread and fruits :).  It was delicious (it was too good I ate a bit too much I had a tummy ache for a bit :O stupid me..). Ok enough about my tummy ache,  here’s her bridal mehndi.

Oh, the last but not the least, I finally tried out copper I got from Wendy :),  I love it! it shows better on my skin.  Thank you Wendy!

I just had a bridal shower and a mehndi party for Allie and Vilas this week.  Friday was a Allie’s bridal shower hosted by her sisters Fiona and Joanna at Allie’s apartment.  She was really looking forward to her mehndi and was looking for henna artist with her sisters and they came across my site and fell in love with my work.  It’s always flattering when I hear something like this.  Allie was only getting her palms done since she was wearing a white gown but both of her sisters and her friend was able to enjoy henna and I had lovely time meeting them.

Her fiance side of the family hosted their mehndi party on Sat afternoon, this was a larger get together since children weren’t attending the wedding on Sunday.  So I attended the children first.   Little girls are always so cute, they get very excited and if they are old enough they know what to do and very well behaved.  I always get scared with boys what they are going to ask for (since sometimes I get request for something complicated like a tiger or a cartoon characters..) I was able to convince them to do dragons and all I was asked to do was a dinosaur which I was able to make it up.. phew.. and the boys were happy with them.  Evey one was all dressed up and place was beautifully decorated, it was such an honor to be part of their celebration.  They  told me later on that even though they were looking for henna artist separately,  they both loved my work and Allie told her mother in law about my site and turned out they were both looking at the same site!  How flattering is this!!

Allie looked so Beautiful!!  her red hair looked so good with the green!

I met Goussy at a pool party “Agua” I often go to since I know the organizer.  I have offered Luxe Glow at the party couple of times but it didn’t have a consistent business for me and also I wanted enjoy the party so I stopped offering and just enjoyed the party for the pat few month.  Months later, I got a call from Goussy who held on to my card for her maternity shoot and she wanted to get her belly henna :)  I met her at a beautiful space Metropolitan Building in LIC for her shoot last Sat.  It’s an old building with antiques.. such a wonderful space to do a shoot.   I don’t have any photos from the shoot but I’ll share my henna work..

and the space looks like this, it has different  sections and also have smaller intimate rooms.

Don’t mind my henna mess on the table.. stay turned for her photographer’s real work
