ICON magazine photo shoot and article.

When I was asked to be featured in one of ICON magazine's article i was super happy to oblige. I mean, a day spent getting made-up by professional stylists, meeting the editorial team, getting dressed in fab designer clothes and hanging out with models and photographers...what's not to love? : )

I was the first to arrive at the studio the morning of the shoot...Mind you, beating peak hour traffic from Kota Kemuning to Damansara on a workday morning wasn't an easy feat...yawn!
Well-used and rustic...


And soon it was a flurry of hair and make-up styling...

...and i couldn't resist taking some before and after photos...


...a change of clothes...
...and i was fabulously ready to pose!

My first shot was with Matthew, an American model... And he is TALL.

Hence the bricks i'm balancing on... But i didn't feel shitty about my height for long...
Hudson had to use them too... Hehe...


Katy... Style director and bump-disguise extraordinaire.
I couldn't tell she was expecting till much later.

One of the many bling watches that were on loan to me that day...

Then a re-styling of hair and make-up. I really didn't like my hair all up...so woody wood pecker. But at least it'd add an inch to my height... ; )

...with Lee Khim. She's really wonderful.. Very patient and sweet and professional...


...with my purple haired make-up stylist...talk about funky hair man...


...i met Hudson Chang, another guy who's also being featured. He's the suave and charming celeb chef and owner of the restaurant IR1968 at Terrace Hock Choon.



...And Shaun Tan. I've met Shaun through mutual friends at clubs and events.
Fancy meeting him there!


Once i was done with my shoot, i had to take a quick pic with Jane the Editor -in-chief of ICON. Jane's one of the most amazing people i've met and will always remember. She's strong and independent yet exudes genuine warmth and kindness. Plus, a woman this capable is a force to be reckoned with.

A couple of weeks later... the magazine was published!
I couldn't wait to see how the photos turned out.

the cover...

I absolutely loved the article. ♥









I'm really grateful to Jane, Lee Khim and the wonderful team from ICON magazine for the awesome feature.
