"It’s just that almost everything that’s so good seems to be bad for you.."

Even though it may feel like it’s against our millennials nature to take our foot off the gas pedal, it’s important to do so every once in a while. There is nothing wrong with believing in working hard for what you love. But it’s also very important to be mentally and physically in good shape. Something only you have control over.

In other news, we're finally live with #AcureWorld. Still slowly piecing together our first print issue. The first of a series, 'Why you need…' is live with my article on film cameras. #filmisnotdead and we're trying to show that over @acureworld Also I changed my tumblr URL from jamel-alatise to jamelalatise so check that out and hmu with feedback if you would because opinions are always welcome even if they aren't well-received.

Last night I had the pleasure to shoot Polaroid for an event unveiling and promoting Dior's latest fragrance 'Poison girl', a reimagined, modern day twist on a classic scent. Lately, it's been really interesting connecting with the tools and processes my parents would have used before the arrival and dominance of digital. I really encourage people to stray away from this fast-culture we've cultivated and to connect with something much slower, much more authentic, and richer in experience. It's great for the soul. I've also got a bunch of Polaroids, so if you haven't done your #AcureWorld analog photo to accommodate your written interview, holla at me. #Polaroid #Dior
