Treasured Photos

…the more treasured photos came after the concert when I was given dressing room access where I photographed Neil with family members, friends and relatives.
Which of your photos do you treasure the most? Do the candidates perhaps include an image that garnered first place in a photo contest or perhaps one that was selected for the cover of one your favourite magazines? If you’re a commercial photographer, maybe it’s a photo that got wide circulation in ads and billboards and generated attention and new clients, or perhaps it’s a stock shot that’s sold a gazillion times and warmed your heart with the royalty payments.
The question of treasured photos sprang to mind recently during a Toronto studio tour in which I was one of the participating artists. A woman who happens to be an accomplished painter flattered me by buying one of my prints. “I love this,” she told me. “I’ll treasure it always.”
