shae acopian detar is a richly-talented artist, photographer, stylist, and sometimes-model who i've been running into in photo studios all over town (most recently, when we both were involved in this project). if you're not already following her blog, i suggest you skip on over and get started now!! it's constant eye-candy, all of her own creation.

if you've been reading awhile, you may recall that i recently collaborated with shu uemura on this day-in-the-life-style video (check it out if you haven't already!). anyway, they just released another installment in the series, this time featuring fashion photographer frances tulk-hart, and i thought you might find this peek into her world & work to be pretty interesting:

Cole and Maria by Jamilah

Cole and Maria by Jamilah

I don't know where to begin about my amazing friend, Jamilah. We met in middle school and became tennis partners in high school. Jamilah, is the kind of person that always has a beautiful, happy smile spread across her gorgeous face. You can't help but share in the joy that radiates off of her. After not seeing each other since our high school graduation, we were able to reconnect through the miracle of the internet and facebook.

Jamilah's been a big supporter of my blog from the beginning of my fashion escapades and I was able to help her navigate some tricky blog layouts. Being both a full time teacher, professional photographer and newly wed in Florida, Jamilah has a very busy schedule. So I was incredibly honored that she and her husband, Dave, wanted to spend a hot July evening, of her vacation time visiting family, to take some photos of Cole and me.

Every time Jamilah posts new photos on her blog, I am stunned speechless. Each wedding, graduation, engagement (you name it) has such a personal touch that you feel like you know the people she's capturing. I seriously can't get over how amazing of a photographer she is and how lucky I feel to have been able to work with her. Again, Thank You So Much, Jamilah! You are the best.

Now for her incredible photos...

Be sure to visit Jamilah's amazing blog, Jamilah's Creative Touch, for more of her gorgeous work.

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

Yours,
