I just wanted to say a special thanks to all the great people who have helped me over the past few years.
Especially to my husband Richard who cooks for me and keeps me grounded along with countless other things like...driving me to out of town shoots and being bored while I am in my element, not letting me give away my services for free, and putting up with my mood swings. hehe. I keep telling him that all artist have them. :O). For doing more around the house than your share...trust me I notice. For doing the shopping...and for supporting me...no matter what. You are my rock...and I could not do it without you. I love you.
To Andrew for understanding Mom has to do her thing. For taking my side when it comes to artistic differences with your father. For giving me your honest artistic opinion. For doing the extra chores that mom just cant get to. For being the greatest son in the world. I am so proud of you. :O)
To my Mom for helping with $$ when needed and for taking photography into your life. For going on trips with me even when you would probably rather stay home. And for listening to me when I ramble on about my newest adventure. For not being shocked when a half naked women walks thru my house and understanding its all about the art. It means so much to me and I am glad you now have a new hobby. :O) I guess the saying is true...If you cant beat 'em...join 'em. Thanks for joining me.
My cousin Carrie. Thanks for putting up with me all our lives. You have always been my best friend. Thank you for your support and helping me pick out such a kick butt name for my business. I miss youl
Joyce and Alan - For all your support and encouragement. For all the clothes and goodies for my models. The HATS and COAT rock!!!
To my aunt Dona and uncle Darel...thanks for believing in me and sending me the great camera.
To Pete...My fave photographer and friend. You have become near and dear to my heart. Our countless emails and phone calls of artistic frustrations and joy mean so much to me. Thank you for seeing something in me most had not. I can not tell you how much your friendship means to me. You are always understanding, encouraging, supportive and honest.. And you give my name to siome beautiful gals...that make my portfolio ROCK. Thanks for always being there...You are a true blessing.
Thank you to my models. I love your beauty. You make it easy to take great pictures. Hugs to each of you.
Then there are my creative photographer friends. I can not thank the people listed below enough. There are no words to express how important you have all become to me. You offer suggestions and critique my work...honestly,. You dont judge me when I am a dork, which is most of the time. You dont make me feel dumb, even when I am. You boost my esteem when I am low. Give me inspiration by your work and you care what and how I am doing. There are many others I would like to thank...but this is just a start and I will get to everyone.
So to all of you listed here...I know I dont say it enough...but I do cherish you and you will always have a place in my heart. And because of you there is a LEANNA'S REFLECTIONS.
Hugs, Leanna:O)
