Blending underwater and fashion photography, Kirlin creates portraits that are so romantically over-the-top, they're almost like fairy-tale illustrations. The portraits of women and children have a Botticelli-like grace that Kirlin captures with an expert eye. Her website is loaded with private commissions that she's done – a virtual portfolio of magical and magnificent compositions that have deep personal meaning as well as broad appeal.
