Reviewed as part of NPP. I'm not seeing any evidence that this photographer passes WP:GNG or WP:NARTIST, and the page creator has been blocked for suspected undisclosed paid editing. For sourcing we have an interview, an interview on a blog, another random blog, press release about an exhibition at her university, IMDB, another interview, a press release ("prasowe"), a gallery of her photos, a magazine cover she designed, a site for a non-notable award, and her CV. I'm not able to find any substantial coverage in reliable sources through WP:BEFORE. Since interviews are not independent sources and none of the other sources are independent, reliable and provide significant coverage of her, I'm not seeing how she passes GNG.

The article claims notability in that her photographs have been featured in various media including Vogue etc., which is true, but it doesn't really satisfy any of the criteria of NARTIST, which requires gallery holdings, notable exhibitions or substantial critical attention. The assertion that She recently placed 19th in the Portrait Masters competition in the Teens and Seniors Portrait Category is rather underwhelming. Overall, seems to be a successful photographer but not notable by Wikipedia standards. Spicy (talk) 03:33, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
