I see beauty everywhere, but photography came by accident. I wanted to capture moments, save them. When I see a subject that moves me, I have no choice but to document and explore. I especially love the personality and character of buildings that have stood firm to see a history I can only imagine.

Kim Kardashian, Megan Markle, and Marilyn Monroe in a study on power & sexuality

Megan Markle & Princess Margaret

Princess Margaret, the only sister of British Queen Elizabeth II, was a controversial member of the royal family and a royal divorcee. Megan Markle became the first African American member of the British royal family and she also was a royal divorcee on marrying Prince Harry in 2018. The solid couple had a tumultuous relationship with the royal family and eventually abandoned the royal life to a refuge in Canada. Megan Markle and Princess Margaret stirred up much controversy in the royal family, but both women are admirable, sexy, and strong, incredibly worthy of their positions in high society.

Kim Kardashian & Qandeel Baloch

Famous socialite Kim Kardashian is pictured with Qandeel Baloch, known as Pakistan’s Kim Kardashian. Qandeel Baloch was a model and women’s rights activist from Pakistan. She supported her family with her income, but her brother killed her for family honor in 2016 at the age of 26. Honor killings such as these are not always criminally prosecuted, as the family (who did the killing) does not want to pursue charges. Due to the publicity of this particular killing, Pakistan did prosecute Baloch’s brother for her murder.

Jackie Kennedy Onassis & Melania Trump

Jackie Kennedy Onassis and Melania Trump make an interesting pair as First Ladies. In office, Jackie was known for her pink, Chanel knock-off suit. She spoke Spanish and French, and some Italian and Polish. After JFK’s assassination, Jackie refused to change out of her bloodstained dress, wanting the world to see “what they’ve done to Jack.” Melania Trump started modeling as a child, and the above photo was her nude photo shoot with British GQ in January 2000. More than a pretty face, Melania has served as a Goodwill Ambassador for the American Red Cross.

Marylin Monroe & Madonna

The resemblance between Marilyn Monroe and Madonna in this visual art is striking. Playboy model and actress Marilyn Monroe and pop sensation Madonna both used sensational images to boost their notoriety. Madonna released the song “Till Death Do Us Part” on her ‘Like a Prayer’ album. The video portrayed Madonna’s confession to a priest, followed by sexually suggestive behavior with him that caused a stir in the Catholic Church. The controversy resulted in a disagreement over a $5 million endorsement contract with the Pepsi company.
