Sharon Tulloch is an illustrator and a graphic artist. If you have visited the e-store socute.biz, you will have for sure noticed her cocktail of hand-drawn and computer-generated illustrations. Sharon was born in London, spent time in New York and currently lives in sunny and colorful Marseille (France) where she moved many years ago. I believe her culture and mobility is reflected in her work, very fresh and full of life, with characters and figures leaping out at you, possessing a haunting innocence. Sharon works on brand identity, logos, illustrations, children’s books, web design and graphics for items such as bags, t-shirt, and much more. Her latest projects include the 2008 Spring catalogue of New York based jewelry designer ginette_ny.

US based photographer Davina Zagury did many projects around childhood, starting with a beautiful story on vintage toys called “The Land of Lost Toys”, published in Milk Magazine in 2004. Later she worked, in collaboration with the store Pomme, on “The Doudou project”, featuring children and their favorite teddy or dolls followed, a couple of years later by a story calls “Sibblings”. When she became a mother (her little boy is now 2), she thought she would love to have a professional picture of her and her son. That made her think it could be a great project to work on, that would give a wonderful opportunity to other moms. She set up a studio for Mother’s Day weekend and she photographed 26 mothers with their children. Davina says it was challenging but everyone had lots of fun and the results came out beautiful. Unforgettable experience and precious portraits.
For this story called The House in the Clouds, Karin Nussbaumer teamed with Frank Visser, a Dutch talented Art Director and Prop Designer. I particularly enjoy the subtle religious symbols in the first picture, the Boticelli hairstyle in the second, and the Van Gogh flavor in the third one.

Emily Ulmer began her career taking portraits of young people in that pivotal moment of transition from adolescence to adulthood. She has since become attracted to documenting another key moment in life, that of childhood. In her photographs, she attempts to show the beauty of childhood in its most natural state, without the romanticizing interpretation of the adult eye. She usually photographs children in their own environments, in order to capture a sense of their world. Emily does commissioned portraits as well as fashion stories that leave a deep impression of that point in time that we all leave behind. info@emilyulmer.com
Melanie Rodriguez was born in France in 1980. She was introduced to photography at a very young age; at 15 she started learning film developing process, and she fell in love. That is, in the short version, how Melanie became a full time photographer. Some stories are simple and intense, a bit like Melanie’s work.

Photographer and video artist Robbie Cooper is mostly interested in identity and the media. Based in New York, the artist used to be a photojournalist, working for magazines around the world. She recently launched Immersion, a project that records video of people “through the screen” as they play games, use the internet and watch TV. Here’s a selection of the children’s section : Jack Peacock, age 1, watching Peppa Pig 2009, Drew Hugh, age 7, playing Hulk, 2008 and Savannah Shimmin, age 2, watching Monsters Inc 2009. I guess my face looked pretty much like this when I discovered her work.
