About the photographer . .
Steve Landis has travelled through many parts of the world during a career in professional photography incorporating the areas of photojournalism, fashion, beauty, and celebrity portrait photography for major publications for over 25 years.  Steve has turned his life over to Yeshua the Messiah, (Jesus the Christ) and now primarily photographs weddings, family, actor, and executive portraits.

"I have been greatly blessed during my life and give the glory and thanks to Yeshua for a renewed life of peace and joy," states Landis. 

I was flown in from  Paris for the shoot and our model Sophie, although she is French, flew in from New York, where she was based.  As I had been living in Paris already for about a year and a half, it was always a treat to get in to London, and to speak some English.  A nice confluence of events transpired that week.  As it happened, my parents were traveling through London, and we were able to get together for dinner and the show "Cats", which was very big then.  It had not been to Broadway yet.

We had a lovely shoot, (lovely is a very English word and very apropos.)  I had the privilege to work several times with the great fashion editor Sheila Whetton.  She had worked with virtually every great fashion photographer of the 20th Century, and had seen it all.  What a joy to work with someone of that stature, and to have her on your team.  Because when you are doing these stories, its teamwork.  Barbara Sansone did a lovely job with the make-up.
