Photoshoot for Yelé Jewelry

We got to work yet again with our longtime friends and collaborators Tara Arrowood and Kevin Meynell. The goal of this photoshoot was to populate a website for Yelé Jewelry by Lauren Dils, a regional jewelry designer.

Yelé (Ye-lay)


"
The fundamental operating principle of Yelé is to provide superior jewelry, raise awareness, offer consumers an alternative for sustainable jewelry and to give back.

Each piece is designed and hand-made, with a commitment to making as little environmental impact as possible. The current collections — Pebble, Raya, Sansu & Wassa — have been named after mines that need reform or a proposed mine that, if implemented, is expected to cause irreversible harm to the environment and surrounding communities.

Getting to work with Lauren's collections first hand during the photoshoot, I can attest that there are some very nice pieces in them. What I like about them is the subtle touches she brings to seemingly simple designs, the tactile textures, and how the pieces play with light.

I've credited everybody who was involved below. Most of them have links. If you have need of similar services, I recommend all of these guys. Atelier Emmanuel has done many shoots with Tara, Kevin, and Lena and they are always a pleasure to work with, to say nothing of the excellent work that they do.
