Published! - Professional Photographer Magazine

I am honored to be included in the May issue of Professional Photographer Magazine. I have been reading this magazine for years, folding down page corners and tearing out articles, getting new ideas, and being inspired and re-inspired by other photographers, technical tips and marketing ideas. So to be included is amazing! Being interviewed for this piece was one of the highlights of my professional career and I couldn't be happier to, at the same time, bring some attention back to New Orleans, a place that still needs help 3.5 years after Hurricane Katrina.

Best of Atlanta

Creative Loafing's Best of Atlanta results were announced last week and we won Best Local Visual Arts Blog again! Woohoo! Thanks to everyone who voted!

It's time to celebrate!

I found out on Tuesday that I was nominated for an Allie Award for Best Event Photography for Beth & Tim's wedding! How cool!! The judges are caterers, florists, event production people, basically every type of vendor you would ever need for a wedding or other event. The awards recognize outstanding work, ethics and service to event and wedding clients. I'm so excited to be honored as an exceptional wedding photographer by my colleagues

The gala event is on March 25 and is just like the Oscar's so I'll be waiting anxiously in my seat to find out if I won. Just being nominated is a huge accomplishment, but it would be great to win.

Thanks to Beth & Tim and Suzy at Neverland Farms, the venue for the September 2006 wedding. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

By the way, could they have found a more elegant and iconic person to represent this year's award ceremony? Audrey Hepburn has been a favorite of mine since I saw Breakfast at Tiffany's. In fact her picture has been on my fridge for the last 4 years to serve as my inspiration. Everytime I see her picture, I'm reminded to continue aiming to be a graceful and genuine female professional.

Newspaper print on my fingers

Ok, so I have to admit, when I found out I had won Best of Atlanta for Established Visual Artist, I just about ran out my door to find a kajillion (yes, that many) copies of the paper with my name printed in lights. Surprisingly, it took driving around for quite a bit to find a stocked newspaper stand. You would think that finding Creative Loafing in Little 5 Points, Candler Park and Virginia Highlands would be easier. But I did manage to find one. So cool! I still can't believe that I won.

Da-dada-dah! Here it is!

BEST OF ATLANTA!

Today I was awarded the Best Established Visual Artist in Atlanta by Creative Loafing!


I am so honored (and psyched) to receive this award especially because it was voted on by the public. My clients and fans are the best! Thanks so much for voting for me. You just made my entire year! And how about timing?! Not only did I launch my brand new website last week, but it's also Rosh Hashanah - the Jewish New Year. What better way to celebrate the new year than to get this kind of recognition?!

Oooops, sorry about the bad link....

Just realized the link to Creative Loafing was bad in the e-newsletter I just sent out. Sorry about that. Here's the correct link.
