I have had my eye on the work of Neil Millar from Millar Photographics for awhile now. Neil's work with model Jerome Davis caught my eye last year and I made a note to get in contact with the artist. When I revisited Neil's portfolio in December his recent work with 21 year model Parker Shell literally jumped off the screen at me.
Parker has to have one of the worlds most infectious grins. His smile lit up each shot and Neil wisely made Parker's smile the focus of many of his images. Although his smile is what initially attracted me to his images, his appeal does not stop there. Parker also has incredible blue eyes and a extremely fit body and looks like he is having a lot fun in front of the camera.
Hailing from Salmon Arm British Columbia, Neil has always been visually surrounded by extraordinary sites. Tourists flock to the city each summer to spend time by engulfed by the area's mountains, lakes and of course, the Salmon River. If you check out Neil's site you will see his passion for photography was often channeled through capturing the scenic sites around him.
Neil has always dreamt of taking his photography to a different and more professional level. Over the past couple of years, Neil's lens has focused less on landscapes and more on people and loves the expressiveness, energy and creativity of working with models.
Expressive is without a doubt the perfect adjective to describe Neil's work with Parker. Neil says working with Parker was extraordinary and that his smile could melt glaciers. I wholehearted agree and can think of no greater compliment.
