6th Wojnicz Intl Salon Poland
Yesterday I receive word of my Salon acceptances in the 6th Wojnicz International Salon, Poland. Since I am working towards EFIAP Silver distinction I was hoping to receive an award for at least one image.

Fanny Müller

A day with Ayla Rose
I’ve been waiting a while to have my first shoot with Ayla Rose. It was worth the wait! Having access to both studio and nearby locations is very useful in unpredictable Irish weather. My plans had to be flipped from morning to afternoon to make sure we got time in studio and time on location.
