a first

Thursday, May 20, 2010

As I write this, my hands are trembling….. Yesterday, I scored my very first book cover deal with an Italian publisher for  this image, “single rose”.  I am so excited, and of course it almost feels like a dream.  How ironic that my trusty sidekick, my daughter, the catalyst for my love of photography, is included in my first book cover!

This journey with photography has taken me so many places, introduced me to so many people, and opened my eyes to so many opportunities.  I can’t imagine my life without my camera….

The book will only be published in Italy, but I will be sure to share the final cover with you!
