I think the universe is trying to make my eye surgery recovery as nice as possible because after yesterday's AP38 news, I'm again so happy to have just gotten the email that our Handmaid from @wifeduringquarantine has been chosen for the 2022 Communication Arts Photo Annual. And even better, it was selected as one of five Best in Show images with a special trophy and extended coverage in the book. So honored to be among such great photographers and work. Huge thanks as always to the lovely redhead, and to @communicationarts and the judges. . . #handmaid #handmaidstale #shootwithsavage #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #portraitphotographer #portraitperfection #makeportraits #makeportraitsnotwar #iso1200 #editorialphotography #editorialphotographer #mediumformatmag #myfujifilm #fuji #fujifilm #fujifeed #fujifilm_us #portraitmood #gfx50r #mediumformat #portraitvision #portraitmood #portrait_vision #portrait_mood #portrait_planet #portrait_mf #ad600 #godox #gf63mm #wifeduringquarantine @savageuniversal https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb0NdeYuMlB/?utm_medium=tumblr

I had the pleasure of shooting an elegant artistic fashion series for Savage Universal (@savageuniversal) to showcase their muslin hand painted muslin backdrops. For this series, the background was the Verona hand painted muslin, and it complimented this elegant off-white dress so beautifully with model Elise! You can see more on Savage’s web site, or just wait here for even more shots….more to come! 😀 . .

#MuslimsofNYC An #epidemiologist, Nur studies the determinants of and risk factors for disease and health factors. “I didn’t know [epidemiology] existed until I went to graduate school. However I was introduced indirectly to public health from an early age. As a young girl, I was really inspired by a man named Jonas Salk. Not only did he develop the vaccine for polio, he then championed to make it a mandate to vaccinate children.” A marriage of her three passions of math, science, and public health/medicine, her specific focus is breast cancer epidemiology. “Cancer really appealed to me because it is such a huge burden in the U.S., and it was very poetic in the sense that it is a disease of overgrowth of cells, [cells] growing out of control. It kind of reminded me of society now. What is it that is killing us? It is all this excess. If you looked at the top ten diseases 200 years ago— the majority were infectious diseases. These diseases became less prominent with advances in medicine and public health, introduction of antibiotics, and improvements in sanitation, housing, and nutrition. Now, it is all this excess that is killing us and killing the planet.” As a population scientist, Nur is afforded the opportunity to really focus on the big picture and use a “cell to society” approach to address different public health challenges. “I feel like scientists are like artists because we have to take so much rejection. It’s creative; we have to think outside the box. In medicine, you get a patient and you have to follow different algorithms to find out what they have. But for scientists, we have a problem that we haven’t solved yet [and] society hasn’t solved it yet, so we need out-of-the-box thinkers.” .

Wife during quarantine, part XXXVIII; Handmaid. The attempted coup got me thinking about fictional coups so we made this with some seamless paper.

Thrilled to get the email yesterday that our handmade Handmaid from Wife During Quarantine was selected for the American Photography 37 book, the collection of the year's best photography. Recognition is always special, but more so this crazy year for a project working with the lovely redhead, the best partner and muse I could ask for. This series would not exist without her skills, creativity and awesomeness. Thank you! And thanks to @american_photography_winners and all the AP37 judges for this honor. . . #handmaid #handmaidstale #shootwithsavage #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #portraitphotographer #portraitperfection #makeportraits #makeportraitsnotwar #iso1200 #editorialphotography #editorialphotographer #mediumformatmag #myfujifilm #fuji #fujifilm #fujifeed #fujifilm_us #portraitmood #gfx50r #mediumformat #portraitvision #portraitmood #portrait_vision #portrait_mood #portrait_planet #portrait_mf #ad600 #godox #gf63mm #wifeduringquarantine @savageuniversal https://www.instagram.com/p/CNsHHJ9ggqm/?igshid=1bov3y4x0ibbu
