Kind of low in contrast yet colorful; girls with beautiful brown curly hair posing casually;  moody captions... When I first saw the photos from Sonia Ben Ammar's instagram, I thought she was part of some movie focused on summer of a teenage girl in France. However, those beautiful "screenshots" are actually photographs by Sarah Bahbah.

If you go to her webpage http://www.sarahbahbah.com/ , you would find that she has many series of captioned photographs. Those are captured moments, like other photographers' works, but they are also narratives. I get the sense of some sentimental girls wondering about love immediately when I look at them. Instead of interpreting implied messages and clues, the viewers would feel as if they were having a conversation with the girl in the photo :)
