I'm so thankful to those of you whose photo books I have purchased to show my support are now "paying it forward" and ordering my book! I'm very honored; thank you! ................

Join me for a week in July in Rockport Maine for a workshop that will put you at ease and offer you the chance to step outside of your everyday life and explore the mindful aspect of photography to express yourself visually. We will do that through a combination of inspirational readings (short ones!), and short meditations designed to help you see with fresh eyes. This course is not designed to produce award-winning images or to put you under pressure – quite the opposite, in fact. Link in bio........

Join me online for my photo class Composition and Craft, over five Saturdays, May 31-June 28. In between classes you will photograph whatever you are drawn to; this class will help you learn to see differently to make beautiful images.

Join me June 19-23 in Rockport Maine for Composition and Craft, a workshop that will change the way you make photographs! Here’s what one of my past students said after the class:

“I appreciate your very open and approachable style you have to address any questions or challenges we have encountered.
Thanks so much for the encouragement you have given me to find my own voice!”

So I’m in Paris, where I have been before (lucky me), and I’m introduced to the tintype app by the wonderful and it has thrilled me beyond words to use this “gimmick” (you know who you are who called it that) and you know what? I. Don’t. Care. because I am having so much fun seeing the world this way.
