San Miguel de Allende - My Photography Book - Coming Soon


My photograph of this door in San Miguel de Allende - that ravishing Spanish Colonial town in Central Mexico - has been blogged, pinned, and re-pinned more times than I probably know, so it was an easy choice when deciding on the cover of my book - San Miguel de Allende, photographs.

I just received the review copy and it should be ready for purchase on Blurb the first week of November.

It's a small volume of 80 pages of color photographs that I shot from 2003 through 2009 and it will be available in hardcover with dustjacket or softcover without.
It was such a labor of love and so thrilling to see my photographs bound together. It's not a lavish coffee-table book...but small and affordable...and light, too...with three lined pages in back for travel notes or travel memories.

San Miguel has become wildly popular since my first visit in 2003 and has been chosen as one of Conde Nast Traveler's Top Ten Best Places in the World a number of times. If you have been, or are going, or know someone who is, or, if you have a passion for travel, I hope you'll have a look. There are quite a few books on San Miguel and I am always amazed at how differently everyone views the town through their lens.

Preview information coming soon.

Thank you so much. It's just a little volume...not exactly Rizzoli but still nice as a rememberance of a place dear to my heart.

Hello,
I visited your blog today - I saw you on 'Jennelise.' Your blog is so lovely and charming. The picture of the Cross is beautiful. Me and my daughters started a new blog, and we would love it if you could visit us and follow. I would enjoy coming back to visit with you. Your blog is filled with peace and beauty, and I am leaving here today with a smile. Oh, I love Frank Sinatra. He is a favorite of mine too, and what a voice! I hope to hear from you, and have a sweet day.
