Anime/Manga Style Graphic Novel Illustration -- 2

I'm looking for a talented illustrator to help bring my love origin story to life in a graphic novel format. The story is meant to be dramatic with a strong attention to the emotion in the story. I've created a simple sketch of the storyboard. I will provide photos of the actual people these characters represent to properly depict them in an animated style.

Ideal candidate should:
- Be proficient in Anime/Manga illustration style
- Have experience illustrating dramatic narratives
- Understand the nuances of romantic storytelling

Please include a portfolio of similar work in your response.
