Delete first of all, I accidentally deleted the AFD template on the article page, but I have restored it. I hope I do not get templated! I found one Google books source that sums up the situation: "Elizabeth Etienne is an award-winning wedding and lifestyle photographer, teacher, speaker, and freelance writer." I found no decent sources. GNG fail. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 02:48, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment/question. The article tells us: "Elizabeth Etienne, is an American photographer. Etienne's images are part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Photography." The latter museum has a website seemingly last updated in 2011 or perhaps 2010. Etienne's website tells us: "In 2014, she hung up camera and set down her pen trading her former career as an award-winning, pro photographer (who traveled the world shooting lifestyle advertising, retro portraits, interiors, events and travel, and wrote and published 3 books on Amazon) for a PASSIONATE career in Interior Design!!" Captain, would interior design make this AfD a matter for Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Architecture? -- Hoary (talk) 06:22, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

not sure about architecture list but interior design photography and wedding photography (think the dresses:)) especially, is part of fashion, have added this afd to the fashion afd list (see below). Coolabahapple (talk) 01:40, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep: she seems to have been a probably notable photographer - I've retrieved and added an archived version of one of the sources, and a book review here (but is the New York Journal of Books anything serious or just fed by PR puffery? PamD 15:23, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

On their submissions page, the New York Journal of Books says that you should not submit a book until it is available on Amazon.com. That is presumably so that they can put in the buy on Amazon button at the top of the review. With regard to the archived article on kodak.com that you found, this is not a good source. Anything Kodak wrote about was meant to sell more Kodak products. The same goes for the Nikon profile on Nikon's web site. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 15:27, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
