I love to meet new people, particularly those who are skillful, talented and have certain achievements on their credits. Recently I had an opportunity to meet New York Fashion & Entertainment photographer Barbara Kastrati. We had a common friend so I already knew about some of her work. She is a top class photographer who has helped so many models and designers to get success. And that’s not all, she has also been working as an actor, radio personality, dance teacher. The world multi talented can’t do justice with such artist with a variety of skills and talent. This short meeting with her was very pleasant for me and I am obliged to write about her on my blog.

Upcoming models love to get their photoshoots done by Barbara, as they know she will bring out their hidden beauty and style them in such glamorous way that the designers and agencies will certainly hire them.

She assists client’s with defining their image and create entire photo & video campaigns designed to make them stand out in the industry.

And she has a vast knowledge and expertise in Ballroom & Latin Dancing. she has trained her students into some really good dancers in the recent past.
