Hi, I’m Thuy (pronounced “Twee”) — the artist and photographer behind Makeup & Photos by Twee 😊

My love for photography started at a young age and quickly turned into a passion for capturing real moments and real confidence. Over time, that passion naturally evolved into a full-service experience where makeup and photography come together to help you feel your best and look like you — just a litt

Today was one of those afternoons that reminded me how much showing up for people matters. 🤍

Maid to Clean spent their client appreciation afternoon here at the studio — food, snacks, a little makeup for those who wanted it, headshots, lots of laughs and one pretty special team photo under “Maid to Clean • Since 2018” at the Joyo.

They’ve had a WEEK, and yet you could feel how much this group genuinely enjoys each other and how much Melanie Barnhill + JJ Barnhill appreciate the people who work alongside them. I loved getting to see that firsthand.

Carrah Elaine joined me again today for headshots, and I continue to love what we’re building together. Makeup & Photos by Twee is becoming so much more than just me behind a camera or holding a makeup brush. It’s a collaboration of professionals coming together to create an entire experience for the people who walk through our doors.

Today was a really good example of exactly what I hoped this studio could be. 🫶🏼

Thank you, Melanie, JJ + the Maid to Clean crew, for spending your afternoon with us!

I finally tried Rhode Beauty for myself… and I have thoughts. 🤭

First impressions of the Glazing Milk, Glazing Mist, Peptide Lip products, Pocket Bronze + Pocket Blush — trying everything for the first time and sharing what I think as I go.

This started as a 25-minute GRWM 😂 but between Instagram limits and all of our attention spans, I condensed it down to less than 3 minutes.

So yes… makeup magically appears on my face between clips. 😂 I started completely bare-faced with the skincare, then did my foundation, concealer, brows, etc. in between so I could keep this focused on the Rhode products.

And spoiler: I REALLY liked a lot of it. 👀

I put all of the Rhode products I tried + my favorites into one ShopMy collection — linked in my bio! 🤎

25 minutes ➡️ under 3.
True first impressions.
And apparently I’ve been influenced. 😂🤍

Senior season is in FULL swing! 🤍📸

Emma is a simple kinda gal, did her own makeup, and came into her session not totally sure about this whole being-in-front-of-the-camera thing. 😂 And you know what… MOST people aren’t!

That’s why I take my time. We talk. We figure out what you like, what you don’t like, what feels like YOU, and we ease into it. You do not have to show up knowing how to pose or what to do — that’s my job!

And Miss Emma was the perfect example. 🤍 By the middle of our very first set in the studio, I could already see her getting more comfortable and thinking, “Okayyyy… maybe I CAN do this.” 😂

Then we hit the 2nd and 3rd locations and GIRL, she absolutely killed it. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

And this session was a little extra special for me because Emma officially completes the Sheets kids! 🥹 I photographed her sister’s seniors a few years ago, her brother’s, and now Emma’s.

Getting to have families come back and trust me with kid after kid and milestone after milestone is pretty darn special. 🤍 Thank you DeAnna Frenk Sheets and Jim Sheets!

Proof that makeup doesn’t have to change your face to make an impact. 🤍

Different faces, different features, different preferences.

Every look is customized to the person sitting in our chair, from fresh and natural to soft glam and everything in between. The goal is always for you to still look and feel like YOU.

I’ve known Clara since she was a little girl in kindergarten… and this weekend I had the honor of doing her wedding makeup. 🥹🤍

Watching the people you’ve known for years step into such a meaningful season of life never gets old. After spending the morning with Clara and her bridal party, Wayne and I returned that evening to celebrate as guests.

It made the day even sweeter getting to spend it with Hanna and Cole. 🤍

It was our first time at Bosona, and it did not disappoint. From the venue to the little details, you could tell how much thought Clara and Garrett put into every part of the day. It was such a beautiful celebration to be part of.
