Getting published as a photographer is awesome to be recognized.

As a passionate photographer, there is an inherent desire to share your vision with the world. The dream of getting published is not merely about personal achievement, but also about the recognition that comes with it. It signifies that your work has reached a broader audience, allowing you to connect with people who appreciate your artistry and storytelling.

Being recognized as a published photographer is indeed an exhilarating experience. It affirms the countless hours spent honing your craft, the late nights capturing the perfect shot, and the countless miles traveled in pursuit of extraordinary moments. It validates the dedication, creativity, and technical skills you have invested in your photography journey.

Publication bestows a newfound sense of legitimacy upon your work, elevating it beyond the realms of personal expression. Seeing your photographs grace the pages of renowned magazines or displayed in prestigious galleries fills you with an indescribable sense of pride. It reinforces the belief that your voice matters and that your unique perspective is valued in the artistic community.

Moreover, being published opens doors to exciting opportunities. It allows you to collaborate with fellow creatives, from stylists to writers, propelling your work to new heights. The exposure gained through publication can lead to commissions, exhibitions, and even invitations to showcase your work on an international stage. These possibilities can be instrumental in further establishing your name and propelling your career forward.

Yet, it's important to remember that recognition should not solely be measured by publication. While it undoubtedly serves as a commendable milestone, the journey of a photographer is filled with countless personal victories. Each time you capture a fleeting moment of beauty or evoke strong emotions through your imagery, you are succeeding as an artist. These triumphs, although not as grand as getting published, are equally significant and should be celebrated.

Nonetheless, there's no denying the allure of getting published. It symbolizes a culmination of your hard work, dedication, and talent. When your photographs are chosen to grace the pages of magazines, books, or online platforms, it is a testament to the impact and beauty your images hold. It is an invitation for the world to witness your unique vision and fall in love with the stories you have captured.
So, as a photographer, relish the process of capturing extraordinary moments, experiment with different techniques, and constantly refine your skills. With passion, perseverance, and a touch of luck, your work will undoubtedly receive the recognition it deserves, bringing you one step closer to the dream of being published.

It's been an extremely busy summer! From a scare with my husband which ended up with him having to be hospitalized. We weren't even sure he would make it or even walk again... and then he was transferred to a facility and having to go through rehabilitation. It was pretty rough for the family.

Tough times call for tough measures and this time we pulled through. It was scary for the whole family.Finally, things are looking up again! Summerana approached me for a feature in their magazine! I am truly honored for this privilege.

I have always admired the artists that have been in this magazine. It was a nice surprise to be asked!!I cannot wait to get my copy! My kiddos were surprised to see themselves as this was a concept I had planned in the winter, in the tulips!Well... it's time to get back to work! Still working on some beach sessions from the year, while enjoying some vacation home at the beach with family!Thank you for an amazing 2018, South Jersey!!

Happy Shooting!!
