Reaching for the stars

The power of staying in touch in invaluable. Just recently I found myself looking for a professional photographer for a design award competition we wanted to enter. The project merit the artistic touch and eye of the best quality. For years I have admired the work of one of the best architectural photographers in Florida (Dan Forer) and simply thought of him as "inaccessible" or photographer to the stars.

Why? Well, I have always seen his work published in the best National design magazines and featuring the interiors of some of the peers I admire. Well, I thought his rates would just be out of reach.

Much to my surprise an email came from his office just weeks prior to a design contest deadline. A simple email showing their latest work and offering their services to designers. This was G-d sent, the perfect opportunity to strike gold! If his email was in any way indicating that he was looking to expand his client base or it may suggest that he has some available time, I could find myself bargaining for a great deal. Lucky for me he was receptive and he agreed to a rate within my budget.

Meeting him was quite amazing too and seeing him at work was even better. He and his finely-tuned team moved through the day in perfect harmony as if dancing to a silent Minuet, while creating art from my own creation.

Mission accomplished!

To those who fear those they admire, best to join forces and take a step for grandness. Thank you Dan for allowing me to showcase my creation in your best light!
