Before coming over for our shoot, Ariela emailed Amanda, asked her about me. Which, seriously, GENIUS. Been recommending it to all the models I work with, now. Great way to figure out ahead of time if a photographer they're thinking of working with is a decent chap, or a shmuck, or a decent chap who's a shmuck when it comes to interacting with models. In addition to being whip-smart, Ariela's also a damn good model. Very comfortable in front of the camera, enjoys the process. Good times…
