What an adventure having your picture taken can be! I’ve always felt a bit challenged by the process because I tend to blink a lot in front of the camera. But working with Michael Benabib and Agata Helena (makeup and hair artist extrodinaire) made my photo shoot a breeze. And styling myself was so easy […]
