Food for the Poor Donation

This month, 1,000 photo tees will be donated to Food for the Poor, Inc.  Since 1982, Food for the Poor has provided direct relief assistance to the poor by improving the health, economic, social and spiritual conditions of men, women, and children throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. The shirts will be shipped to Haiti and given out those in need through a church already operating in areas of need. In this way, the organization serves the poor with dignity and ensures the most appropriate use of donor's funds, goods, or in this case photo goods.  Click on the link for Food for the Poor Inc.'s website. I'm making an effort to have some photos taken of the Haitians with the shirts, so we'll see!   Thanks, Amy

Adventure Photography Workshop

This September 21-25, I will be attending an adventure photography workshop put on by National Geographic's "Adventure" magazine in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.  It will be an intensified week of learning and critique by a handful of the top adventure photographers in the field today. Prior to the workshop, I will be spending 5 days shooting wildlife in Yellowstone. I will blog again when I return home, and build an online album of the photos. All for now, Amy

Sea Wall Mural

New Smyrna Beach, FL: A couple years ago I had the opportunity to paint a seawall near Crawford Avenue.  The colorful spectacle is 6 feet high and stretches 60 feet wide.  The painting was inspired by an indonesian fabric dying technique called "batik" and includes multicolored coral and sea life.  The mural took 3 months to complete due to weather and tides.  If you're ever driving on the beach in New Smyrna, head one mile south of downtown's Flagler Avenue to see the wall.

Orlando Style Magazine

This month I did a photo shoot that no one would have predicted... a feature for a style magazine. The purpose of the article, "In Her Closet", was to showcase an Orlando woman who is known for her style and elaborate closet. The photos won't be published until September (fall fashion issue), and can be seen on the magazine's website: http://www.orlandostylemag.com/ at that time. All for now...
