I'm sexy and I know it, I'm sexy and I know it...
"Mark Vacker is a family doctor turned photographer, and his bedside manners transfer to the studio. Professional yet warm, he does just the right things to make a model feel comfortable on the set. I would do another shoot with him any time."
Dinka :)
Hot off the press and I do mean hot!
This stunning woman from Latvia loves to make people smile, or is it, work on their smiles. It was a lot of fun photographing Dinka; the photo session was a blast. I asked Dinka to write a few words about herself and her story goes like this:
“I am an Eastern European girl that likes to have fun and be serious when needed. I do absolutely anything for those that are close to my heart and look for kindness in others. I appreciate intelligent conversations, but humor is what keeps me going. I am a huge optimist and I love life and people.
I grew up in Riga, Latvia and was "brought" to the States by my mom when I was 16. I prefer to say I'm adapted, but I stand out.
I'm currently in my 3rd year of dental school at Nova Southeastern. I believe someday I will make a lot of people smile.
Hobbies: I read Scientific American and Vogue, scan through dental catalogs, and read weird non-fiction about black holes, emotional intelligence, and body language. Oh, I also run 20 miles a week, play tennis, and dance for fun.”
