Let’s take a fun, colorful stroll along Lake Michigan – to remember why we put up with the Michigan winters…

Lake Michigan at Holland State Park

Lake Michigan at Holland State Park

Over the past few months, I’ve really enjoyed giving photo presentations to various organizations such as Audubon chapters, wine dinners and outdoor enthusiast groups. I’d like to share a very nice letter I received this week from my last presentation in Grattan Township, Michigan at a wild game dinner event for a local sportsman’s club:

“Hi Stacy,

More than a week has passed since you visited Tri-Town Sportsmans’ Club, and treated us to your excellent photo program. I would have written earlier, but I wanted to get some feedback from our members. It was all very positive! Several commented on your artistic ability to get just the right angle on some very familiar scenes.

It was great to have you and your family there, and we thank you for taking the time to share your work with us. I can see why you are getting so much recognition, and I know that it will continue.

Cordially,
Bob Baker
President – Tri-Town Sportsmans Club

Are you looking for some relaxation, inspiration and just plain fun for your group or guests? Want to take a vacation – but gas prices are scaring you from traveling?

I offer a multimedia showing of my nature images consisting of a digital slide presentation synchronized to soft music, and a talk where I will give the “story” behind the images. The discussion features a bit of the techniques, difficulties and fun moments encountered in capturing some of my favorite images. The program is not intended to be a photography class – just a enjoyable respite from our busy lives and hectic schedules. My presentation style and material can be adjusted according to the select audience I’m scheduled to speak for.

Please contact me for rates and availability, and to book your  next event! Fees are based on intended audience, time and travel requirements.

Healing Images - A Selection from the Lemmen-Holton Cancer Pavilion

Healing Images - A Selection from the Lemmen-Holton Cancer Pavilion

What a thrill! My first published book “Healing Images – A Selection from the Lemmen-Holton Cancer Pavilion” – arrived yesterday!

And within a day, the “Pure Michigan – Spring Scenic Places” book arrived as well. I have approximately 12 pages in this book (along with a cover photo), created with images captured during the Pure Michigan Pro Photo Contest.

Pure Michigan - Spring

What a very exciting moment for me!  The “Healing Images” ook – from the initial concept  – to its layout (which I did myself) – to its final creation – has been approximately a two-year project. It brings me much joy to know the books will touch those who need some peace and serenity in their lives.

The Pure Michigan book represents four months of some of the most challenging photo sessions I’ve ever encountered. It’s wonderful to have my work featured alongside that of other top photographers. To represent Michigan in this beautiful publication is a great honor. And yes, I’ll admit it… doing so as the only female photographer is AWESOME!

After a month-long entry period, followed by a preliminary voting round that featured 7 groups of 21 photos each (147 photos), which was followed by a 1-week FINAL VOTING ROUND…

… I was pleased to learn today my photo of the Grand Haven pier in winter was a winner in the PhotographyCorner.com 2009 Photograph of the Year Contest.

My image was the 5th Runner-Up (6th Place) in the competition. Apparently, some very cool prizes such as software and gift certificates for photo finishing and online photo storage are coming my way! How fun!
