This is not the subject of substantial coverage in multiple reliable sources. Note that WP:LOTSOFSOURCES don't actually indicate coverage of the subject. Most search results I find actually just refer to photo credits and are not actual coverage of Graylock. Others, such as this and stuff on Business Wire are WP:CRYSTAL and press releases, overall promotional in nature. I found one decent article, but that alone doesn't indicate this subject is actually notable. JFHJr (㊟) 23:00, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Userfy I have yet to hear back from Ms Graylock as to how she wishes to proceed. Although she is extremely notable in her field the mainstream rarely looks at photo credits.--Canoe1967 (talk) 23:09, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment As well as 4074 mag, she's got a bit of trivial coverage for her chairs[1][2][3] and had various published interviews, including a video on the WSJ site[4][5][6] This doesn't seem enough to build an article out of. But I'll wait and see what Graylock says if she's been in touch with Wikipedia. --Colapeninsula (talk) 02:24, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I came across her work from an image in commons. I wanted to email her about it and discovered how prolific she is. I created the article, then emailed her for a pic, info etc. No answer back yet.--Canoe1967 (talk) 02:49, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

SNOW KEEP ~~STRONG keep~~ - Notable, easily meets WP:ARTIST --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 08:37, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, "strong" with capslock! That's like a vote and a half! What specific criteria at WP:ARTIST does she easily meet? And according to what third party sources? Do you think there's actually enough information out there to cobble together an encyclopedic biography? And if so, from precisely what sources? JFHJr (㊟) 14:54, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

2. The person is a significant contributor to, a subject of, or used as an expert source by major news agencies or publications. 1. may qualify as well. Cited by peers... Cited can be taken a few ways the way it is worded.--Canoe1967 (talk) 20:14, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

She is a significant contributor and an expert source to Vogue, Glamour, Us Weekly, People, TV Guide, InStyle, Entertainment Weekly and the Washington Post. So I imagine that I was referring to article two of WP:ARTIST. She also qualifies under article one, but article two is the heavyweight...specifically. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 01:25, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You forgot the wire services: UPI, AP, CP, etc. I think that wire photo company she founded probably was a boost to access for media. --Canoe1967 (talk) 01:38, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How could I have missed that? That's what I get for depriving myself of coffee. I have to go change my vote now. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 02:44, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep; appears to meet WP:ARTIST, although the page could improve (such as citation format). Backtable ^{Speak to me}_{concerning my deeds.} 20:53, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was going to see how this AfD went and then work on the article. I already had section on her equipment that someone deleted. Jason Becker has a huge section on his guitars but it may not look right in a photographer bio.--Canoe1967 (talk) 21:07, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Satisfies point 2 of WP:CREATIVE, because this person is a significant contributor to major news publications with her photographic works. Northamerica1000^(talk) 09:45, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
