We recently had the absolute pleasure of partnering with Glam Squad to create stunning New Year’s Eve-themed portraits for four talented local beauty pageant winners here in Arizona. This collaboration brought together fashion, beauty, and artistry in a way that truly sparkled—literally!

A Night of Glitz and Glamour

Glam Squad provided an incredible wardrobe selection that perfectly captured the elegance and excitement of New Year’s Eve celebrations. From sequined gowns to metallic cocktail dresses, each contestant shined in looks that complemented both their individual style and the festive theme.

Our studio transformed into a celebration with classic mirrored disco balls serving as the perfect props, catching the light and adding that iconic party atmosphere to every frame. The combination of glamorous styling and playful props created images that were both sophisticated and fun—exactly what New Year’s Eve should feel like.

Celebrating Local Beauty and Talent

Working with these four beauty pageant winners was an absolute joy. Each brought her own personality and confidence to the session, and it was an honor to capture this moment in their pageant journey. These images will serve as lasting memories of their accomplishments and the magic of this special collaboration.

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT yasmin

I believe in real moments and chasing sunsets. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments.

I believe in creating images that demand to be printed—framed in fine art materials and displayed as the heirlooms they're meant to become. My approach is both editorial and intimate, capturing not just faces but the emotional landscape of your life. Each portrait is thoughtfully composed to reveal your authentic story while honoring the beauty of the world around you. Your journey is extraordinary and entirely your own, and I'm here to preserve it with the artistry it deserves.
