I would like to thank my family, my friends, and most importantly, my clients for allowing me to "disappear" while writing this book. Your understanding and flexibility took much of the stress out of my taking on such a big project.

  • Dan Christopher, Dan Christopher Photography: danchristopherphotography.com

  • Carl Murray. Seattle Photography, Inc.: seattlephotography.com

  • Denyce Weiler, Something Blue Photography: somethingbluephotography.com
