The Northern California Fly Fishing Board

Hey, Michelle--first, I think it's flies for bait, though at first I read it as flies before 8, too. That aside...

I clicked on the link for your blog. As anybody who has participated in this board for the last few years would be I'm well-familiar with your great bug photos, which are awesome. I've got to say, though, that I'm equally impressed with your commercial work--the wedding photos, the lifestyle shoots. There's a quality, a way that you capture the personalities and emotions of the folks you're shooting, that is really impressive. I love photography, work for a book publisher that does quite a bit of photographic publishing, so I feel like I've earned my right to have an opinion. And my opinion is that you do great work.

By the way, I'm off to Memphis on Friday for a wedding, where I'll be meeting William Eggleston, whose daughter is marrying my nephew. Do you know his work?
