This week Merchiston has had two visitors from New York - Danielle Levitt and her assistant Michael. Danielle is a well respected photographer who is used to taking photos of celebrities, but for this week, she was instead taking pictures of the Merchiston boys.

She quickly impressed the boys by reeling off her list of recent clients: from the Nicholas Cage to Lindsay Lohan, Franz Ferdinand to 50 Cent. Some of her portraits can be seen on www.edgereps.com.

The reason she was at Merchiston is that she has been commissioned to provide photos for a 20 page special on European Boarding Schools for a magazine 'Felix'. The magazine will be available across Europe from March 07, and Merchiston will be featured in it!

The boys enjoyed hearing Danielle's stories about the stars she has taken photos of, and particularly enjoyed 3 days of 'modelling' - some seemed to pop up at many of the various photo shoots!
