 * Comment: Interestingly the author declared a COI, which was removed by  a few hours ago (see diff). This is just a promo. I would have tagged it for a CSD § G11 but given that the user author removed my tags of Notability and advert (diff), it is only apparent the CSD will be removed and I'll be forced to go to AfD. — DaxServer (t · m · c) 14:36, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete This artist does not meet WP:NARTIST. I cannot find any sources that show exhibitions or collections. Most of the sources are primary or promotional. The claim of being published by "vouge" (sic) is dubious. Reference take the reader to PhotoVogue library. The referenced 35AWARDS 2017 fails verification.

 * Delete - My sense is that it is WP:TOOSOON for this photographer. It seems this article is likely a COI creation or autobio. Nevertheless, it does not meet WP:NARTIST nor WP:GNG, as all I'm finding in a BEFORE search is social media. Netherzone (talk) 23:21, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete this PROMO COI article that fails N. Theredproject (talk) 17:41, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Pure promotion that does not pass WP:NARTIST in any way. --Kbabej (talk) 15:21, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
