A number of years ago, my photographs were accepted into an abundance of top-notch juried art shows around the nation.  I had a fabulous time traveling, meeting other artists and selling images. Although I am no longer involved with these events, I continue to shoot fine art photographs.  One can view all the art shows that accepted my work on my Résumé.

In this architectural image, I am looking straight up, and I rotated the image 90 degrees. I have a couple of other images that were most striking when oriented upside down, and that is how I framed and presented them.

Marilyn Maye

Johnny Carson, host of The Tonight Show, described Marilyn Maye as, “Super Singer”, and Ella Fitzgerald referred to her as, “The greatest white female singer in the world.”

Marilyn began her musical training at the age of three with her mother, who accompanied her on the piano. At age nine, she began classical voice lessons.

Steve Allen invited her to appear on his very popular television show, and soon after, Marilyn signed a recording contract with RCA records. 

She appeared on The Tonight Show an unprecedented 76 times, and received a Grammy Awards nomination for “Best New Artist”.

Her most recent award, among many, was the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Chicago Cabaret Professionals.

#CelebratingWomen

When my long-time client, and television-news personality, asked if I would photograph her baby, I jumped at the opportunity. This perfect angel was mesmerized by the studio lights, and most likely destined to work in front of the camera like her mother.
