Marina contacted me because she knew another girl I had photographed. it made me happy that other girls finally started to connect with me for photo shoots. Especially being another female, I was not sure how well I would be received. Since she was traveling near my area, I went to her hotel and we did a couple of quick sets, and some of the pictures in this book were cell phone type photos that she sent to me, that I asked for to see what she looked like. She was pretty in them, so I asked her to include these as part of my model release!
