You don’t often see a swimsuit model in a photo shoot coming off the dock at OGYC (Old Greenwich Yacht Club), but there they were when former OGYC Commodore John Ehlers and I disembarked from the launch Pride on Saturday. Of course I could not resist inquiring into the particulars.
The photographer is Kristina Vartuli of Stamford who has a studio in Greenwich. The model is Neabell Diaz of New York. The makeup artist is Elise Brennan of New York. They were taking advantage of an usually dry day to build their respective portfolios.




Photos from the shoot (and others) can be viewed here:

This make-up artist, Elise Brennan, also did a friend’s wedding in NY and she was excellent – not only her work, but she was so pleasant (not like some of those stuck-up make-up artists we have all encountered)! Greenwich Rocks! dawnjanine@hotmail.com

I’ve had the pleasure of working with this photographer in the past. Kristina came highly recommended by a friend of mine who also worked with her. She is very professional on set and a pleasure to deal with. Her patience and attention to detail can be seen in the quality of work she produces. Her photos were a wonderful addition to my portfolio.
