VAIPONGI TAI + SIXTEEN CANDLES!

Oh what it is to be 16 again... young, smooth, and beautiful! 
Meet Vaipongi Tai who approached her SWEET 16th Birthday! I got a call to do a photo shoot for Pongi for her surprise birthday party! 
This photo shoot had to be on the "hush" because she didn't know that she was going to have a party! Haha! I played everything off with her Aunty Sivi who was begging not to mention anything about the party and of course being the confidant that I am... I kept my lips sealed! Haha! We even had Pongi's cousin Rissa come in and join in on the shoot so that she wouldn't suspect anything "fishy".
The traditional tongan wear was provided by "Mellow Mood Creations". Pongi's mother is the creative force behind the hair piece and traditional wear! Beautiful isn't it? I have used Mellow Mood's hair pieces in previous shoots and it never ceases to amaze me with the intricate artwork! 
Thank you Vaipongi, Rissa, Fane, Lina, and of course the infamous Aunty Sivi! You guys rocked as assistants!
