The model in the image above, known as Devi, @googlymonstor on Instagram, is the closest I have come to having a Muse. She is definitely a personified force! I have been working with this amazing creative for many years. Her style, mastery of craft, confidence and nature cannot be matched. She has taught me so much over the years. With each photo shoot I learn something new, not just mechanics like lighting, composition, framing and such but who I am in the situation. She puts me at ease, helps me achieve the idea in my mind. Nothing else has impacted my photography more. If you are interested you can see more of my work with this amazing human here! I have been lucky enough to have found my Muse. I look back on an amazing collection of work that I will cherish always and I look forward to the possibility of creating even more in the future!
Until Tomorrow,
John
