HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY to the one and only genius that is @lindaevangelista Working so often with Linda was one of the great pleasures and honors of my life. You knew if you were going to shoot with her, the photos would be brilliant. She never duplicated her modeling, it was not canned poses, each time she stepped in front of the camera, she was a different woman, tailored to the shoot, each gesture, body expression was suited to the clothes and the story the photographer wanted to tell the reader. She could control every muscle in her face and body and in doing so change them so she never appeared to be the same woman. Watching her in front of the camera was mesmerizing! And she is kind and generous and loving. I adore Linda and am happy I spent so much time with her. I wish this great beauty and loving soul and happy happy birthday. I love you Linda!
