Olympics Themed Photo Shoot

The Summer 2012 Olympics are in a couple of days and I can not wait to see all the events, athletes and hear the Star Spangled Banner over and over again in celebration of US gold medal wins.  As a kid I often thought I would one day represent the USA in either figure skating or gymnastics, but alas, my life took other turns and instead I enjoy watching from my tv and rooting on my fellow Americans.

So with such a momentous occassion on the cusp of erupting, I was inspired to create a photo shoot centered around American pride with stars and stripes.  This was almost the shoot that never happened as all within the 24 hours before the shoot, my makeup artist, hair stylist and photo assistant all canceled.  Yikes, what was I going to do now?  Luckily I was referred to Natasha Chamberlin who stepped in last minute on hair and makeup and did an absolutely fabulous job!  Although it was a smaller crew for this shoot, I have to thank Natasha, model Autumn from Envy Model Management, Ria Umeria as wardrobe stylist, and TopShop for wardrobe for all bringing together their fabulous talents for another successful photo shoot.

I’M  YASMIN

Portrait, Branding, Fitness & Studio PHOTOGRAPHER

Fueled by equal parts Earl Grey tea and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together. I believe in images that are itching to be printed, placed in beautiful frames and hung on walls for years to come.
