My first professional assignment as a photographer

Cover-page image for a children’s magazine:

“Ask: Arts & Sciences for Kids”.

Published: February , 2010.

My Very Special Thanks to Karen Kohn, Sr. Art Director for Carus Publishing.

I really owe Karen Kohn a Big Thanks!  She contacted me after seeing the photographs on my website and offered me a commission, although, until then,  I was working in total obscurity!  Photography had so far been only a hobby and I have no professional training in it.  I wanted Karen to know about this, and had emailed her,  and I quote here,  I am interested in photography  as a hobby, and am not a professional. To which she replied, [and I will always remember this]  “Are you ready to go pro?”

So that’s the beginning!!!

She contacted me in September, 2009,  and asked  if would be willing to work for a children’s magazine to be published in February, 2010 .  The issue was on “Optics”.   The photo-shoot was on September 30, 2009, at “The Bean”, in Millennium Park!  It was a fantastic experience, working with children…
