Yasmin's Arte June 2021 Issue: Country Girl, City Girl - A Tale of Two Worlds

Embark on a journey through time and place with the June 2021 issue of Yasmin's Arte, titled "Country Girl, City Girl." This issue uniquely encapsulates the dual aspects of my life—from the rustic charm of my childhood in Cuba to the vibrant pulse of city life in the United States.

Dive into the first set where I embrace my country roots, traveling to the picturesque Blue Ridge Mountains for a shoot at a remote cabin. The natural setting, complete with the intense chorus of the 17-year cicadas, brings a rich, rural atmosphere that harkens back to my early days on a farm. This set captures the essence of country living, featuring sensuous images of me enjoying the simplicity and beauty of nature—truly a nod to my country girl origins.

Transitioning from the serenity of the countryside, the next set brings the dynamic energy of urban life. Shot in a modern living room setting, I'm styled in jeans and a sheer white top, enjoying a good bottle of vodka, reflecting the sophisticated, fast-paced city lifestyle. The narrative then moves outdoors to a garden café, surrounded by the vibrant blooms of Bougainvillea. As I sit enjoying tea in a bright yellow sundress, the attire gradually gives way, leaving me adorned in nothing but a hat, blending the elegance of city life with the freedom of my country girl spirit.

"Country Girl, City Girl" is more than just a collection of photos; it's a celebration of the diverse influences that have shaped me. Each set in this fun and engaging issue showcases different facets of my personality, inviting you, the reader, to explore and enjoy the distinct worlds that have contributed to who I am today.

Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm for my work. I hope you find as much joy and inspiration in exploring these sets as I did in creating them.
