WEDDING | Shirley + Thao by Norris Films | Fiona Man

There’s something to be said when you feel an instant connection to someone shortly after meeting them.

This was the case for Shirley and I. Back in February when I met Shirley for a trial, she had this infectious bubbly personality that it was hard not to like her. From that point on, our friendship built and she even invited me to her wedding.

I’m so amazed at the turnover time from Norris at Norris Films. I started makeup at 4am and the film was shown at the same night and included portions that just happened in front of me!

When I spoke to Norris at the wedding, he said, “I made sure I edited it in a way where I can squeeze out all the tears out of everyone as possible!” He definitely accomplished this. When I first watched this at the wedding, I couldn’t help but tear up. I was constantly dabbing my eyes to avoid ruining my makeup. In this video, Shirley and Thao exude so much emotion that you just feel the love they have for one another. When Norris sent me the link to the video, I teared up again. Seriously…this guy just knows how to tug at my heart strings.

Side Note 1: Shirley was so impressed on how the airbrush makeup lasted even throughout all the tears! Looks pretty good for over 12 hours!
