Mariah Carey by David Shankbone

Mariah Carey at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival for the premiere of Tennessee. I was on the A List of photographers and got up close to her. She was very nice, in a professional way. She didn't talk to the photographers, and her smile was for the cameras - she really gave great shots. I explain what drove my photography and interviews here.
This photo is included in my '100 People I Photographed for the Creative Commons' set of my favorites shots out of the thousands of people I have photographed.

Honestly, I don't even think she was an official model. She was just hanging around the park. But she was so beautiful, and every pose you see of her is fabricated, that everyone started to photograph her. I have to say, I find her beyond enchanting. It's amazing how much beauty can endear someone to you.
