Samantha Levy is an incredible, powerful woman of God. Her personal connection with over 5,000 people all over the world as caused Facebook to move her to "public figure" status. I have been her photographer for over 5 years now and there is never a boring moment with her.
This time our mutual event was a missions trip to Dominican Republic. I try to never miss an opportunity to update her speaker/FB images as a public figure. Every event coordinator asks for a suitable image for advertising purposes. As a former model, Samantha has no trouble looking good for the camera and I love to create what I consider to be iconic images of her.
The trouble is Facebook does a horrible job of giving a photography artist like myself appropriate credit. Their website is basically public domain. No matter how I try, the image gets quickly separated from its creator. 440 likes and 83 comments later, no one even knows I am the photographer. Frustrating. Good thing I trust my God to promote me.
Still, I love creating fabulous images of this woman.
