The Photodiarist

Julia Sarr-Jamois

Paris: Jardins des Tuileries

Inspiration: Julia Sarr-Jamois is not easy to photograph these days. We all clamour but she politely declines, which makes us all want her photograph even more. For me, this is it. This was all I got . . . and it's grainy. Hardly my best work, at least technically.  But what I do love about this photograph is the way she looks so glamorous and elegant even when she's unaware of the cameras.

At Lincoln Center: Lacy Chic

New York: Lincoln Center

Inspiration: Her dress is spectacular. The lacy details are exquisite. Add a pair of vampy sunglasses and presto . . . a mysterious allure.

"Crazy, Sexy, Cool": Shiona Turini of Teen Vogue

New York: Lincoln Center

Inspiration: Shiona Turini, Senior Accessories Editor of Teen Vogue, describes her style as "crazy, sexy and cool".  I have to agree.

At Lincoln Center: Looking On In Wonder

New York: Lincoln Center

Inspiration: What catches my attention in this photo is the boy in the background looking at this fashionisto in total wonder. 

After The Missoni Show: Keeping it Short and Sweet

Milan: Via Festa Del Perdono

Inspiration: I thought her dress was just short enough, sweet and really adorable on her but then she had this vampy, bad-ass air about her, which made for a great contrast. For color photos of her, check out The Photodiarist in Color.

"Talk To Me Anna . . ."

New York: W. 26th Street

Before The Missoni Show: Sheer

Milan: Via Festa Del Perdono

Inspiration: Sheer, diaphanous pieces still rule the streets.

After the Marni Show: Angelic Beauty

Inspiration: I found her face to be so angelic and peaceful.
