The journey to bring Beyond Snapshots to bookstores and libraries everywhere

is finally officially underway.  We have been working hard on this dream for some time now and today we can finally spill the beans.

We are excited and proud to announce our news that we have signed a book publishing deal with Random House / Amphoto!

With a focus that extends past just the time spent raising kids, Beyond Snapshots the book will teach people in all stages of life how to take their fancy cameras off auto and shoot life like the pros.

There are so many wonderful things in store for the blog now that this book is underway.  We will continue to bring you all the tips and features as we have been doing…there is just going to be even more to offer!  Make sure that you sign up for our mailing list and check back here for updates and casting calls…

Thank you all for being part of this journey, we expect it to be a lot of fun.
