This morning we were expecting to be greeted and taught by one of the icons in the photographic industry  - Peter Lindbergh - a legendary fashion photographer. 

One of my greatest desires was to meet and be inspired by him on the stage at The Portrait Masters in Phoenix, AZ this year.
The Divine had different plans though. In the wee hours when we woke up and started getting ready we've learned about the tragic news about Peter's passing. Such a tragedy... Peter left such a huge void. We are still in shock .. RIP Peter Lindbergh

One of my favorite quotes of his:

"If photographers are responsible for creating or reflecting an image of women in society, then I must say, there is only one way for the future, and this is to define women as strong and independent. This should be the responsibility of photographers today: to free women, and finally everyone, from the terror of youth and perfection"
