ABOUT THE ARTIST

 

 

Tamarah Ellen is an inspirational and eclectic artist. Her parents exposed her to various art genres as a child, taking ballet, tap, pointe, piano, and the flute. Later, she signed up with a local modeling agency and found her passion for runway and print modeling. For several years, she worked as a hairstylist and makeup artist at the top salon in her area, but her love for making people beautiful didn't stop there. She landed herself in the position of working on Hollywood movie sets from time to time, giving her a taste of working with the stars.  

 

Tamarah is the CEO and founder of "Tamarah's Closet" which celebrates talented people from all over the world. Her mission is encouraging others to step into their dreams at any age. She hosts her Live internet show, Tamarah's Closet, on YouTube and streams on the global Canyon Star TV network. She also created "Tamarah's Closet" magazine, often showcasing people from her show and local talent. As a photographer, she enjoys making her subjects feel like a superstar. Her experience as a model gives her the edge to help people relax and help them pose, whether it's a portrait, headshot, or an aspiring model. Tamarah is a passionate photographer who loves fashion, so she welcomes the opportunity to work with models, often featuring them in her magazine to give them that added exposure.

 

"I have been in the fashion and beauty industry most of my life. I enjoy experimenting with fabrics for backdrops, sometimes painting my own for an artistic personal touch. I also enjoy draping fabrics and molding them into my own fashion designs for my subjects. I dislike limiting my creativity, so designing my sets allows me to be creative. I prefer something other than ready-made sets or scenic backdrops. I love romantic lighting and experimenting with light. When I put on music in my studio, I can help my subjects relax, and then I can capture their personality, and their soul begins to speak to the music."

 

Tamarah's discerning eye sees art in almost anything, whether it's a thing of beauty or something heartfelt like life experiences. She says, "Even pain can move me. I want people to see what I see, hence 'Through the eyes of Tamarah.'"   

 

Tamarah has an undying passion for animals; her creativity does not stop with people. She loves photographing pets and using her dramatic lighting in her studio. "Our fur babies have souls, so I want to capture them at play in the studio with my romantic lighting. Sometimes, my greatest pet shots are when their owners leave the room." 

 

Regarding portraits, Tamarah loves photographing men and women of all ages. "With age comes greater wisdom, bringing out one's authentic self." Because Tamarah loves fashion, she is enthusiastic about doing bridal and formal portraits, allowing her to embellish her subjects and their gowns with romantic lighting. As a hopeless romantic, she becomes absorbed in romantic lighting, which works well with her boudoir photo sessions.

 

Lifting and encouraging others to step into their dreams will always be her passion, and she uses this to her advantage in all aspects of Tamarah's Closet.  

 

About Tamarah’s Closet Live Interviews

 

Tamarah Ellen has always been a visionary, driven by a desire to live outside the ordinary. From a young age, she dreamed big and never aspired to follow a traditional path or work within the confines of corporate life. Her early career in the fashion and beauty industry led her to work with celebrities and on major film sets, including Sleeping with the Enemy (starring Julia Roberts), Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (with Terry Farrell), Crazy People (with Dudley Moore and Daryl Hannah), Victim of Beauty (with William Devane), and Murder in New Hampshire: The Pamela Wojas Smart Story. These experiences sparked a deep appreciation for the arts and storytelling.

Years later, while writing for a blog, Tamarah conducted an interview with South African artist Charlien Muller. The experience ignited a new passion—highlighting talented individuals and telling their stories. She realized that while social media had become a powerful tool for exposure, it was also saturated and overwhelming. She envisioned a platform that would cut through the noise and spotlight meaningful voices across the arts and beyond.

This vision became “Tamarah’s Closet”, a globally streamed interview show that celebrates artists, creators, and inspiring individuals from all walks of life. Her mission is to encourage others to pursue their dreams—at any age—by showcasing real stories from people at all stages of their journey. The show has been streaming for over nine years and is now featured on Canyon Star TV, a global network based in Nashville, Tennessee.

Tamarah has interviewed a wide range of guests from around the world, including visual artists, musicians, actors, athletes, doctors, authors, and humanitarians. Some notable guests include:

  • World-renowned artist Bob Timberlake
  • Neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen B. Tatter
  • CEO of Canyon Star TV Joey Canyon
  • World Champion Bull Rider Daylon Swearingen
  • Shark and wildlife photographer Chris Fallows (Discovery Channel)
  • WildAid founder Peter Knights
  • Neurologist Dr. Richard Bedlack (Duke Hospital)
  • Acoustic guitarist Pierre Bensusan
  • National Geographic photojournalist REZA
  • Actor David Cubitt (Medium, Shut In)
  • Actor Mark Rolston (The Shawshank Redemption)
  • Actor Brian Krause (Charmed)
  • Singer Michael Allman (son of Gregg Allman)
  • Mayor of Greensboro, NC Nancy Barakat Vaughan
  • District Attorney Michelle Avery Crump
  • Italian pianist Francesco Taskayli
  • South African artist Janko DeBeer
  • Composer and pianist Carmine Padula
  • Urbanscape artist Desmond O’Hagan

Tamarah continues to use her platform to uplift others, tell powerful stories, and inspire dreamers across the globe.

 

Today, she also has a magazine, “Tamarah’s Closet,” which is an extension of her show and is also used to celebrate talented people from all over the world. Tamarah's passions are many, and she continues to add more talented people to her show, celebrate them, and help them grow.
