Photography Greats

Some photographers are on the big stage for work done at National Geographic ( Joe McNally )  or part of Photoshop World, for me, the ones I like watching are on their own personal journeys to become the best at who they are. It is fun to watch the progress, Read the tweets, or see the updates on Facebook. Going out and digging into their website gives you valuable information on why they are GREAT. Picking just three women of the many photographers I have met was difficult, yet so much fun to immerse myself into their websites, Facebook, and blogs. These three have touched my life and my heart with their amazing journeys. Staying connected to people I admire is as simple as following on twitter and Facebook to see what is new as they create new products of their inner creativity.

Kimberly Gauthier

Kimberly teaches herself Photography. We met at Sitsgirls.com and have continued that connection on twitter and Facebook. Kim shares what she teaches herself or learns from trial and error. Kim considers herself an amateur photographer yet her photos are amazing. Although I would label her a professional photographer because once you sell your work or your services you cross the line into being a Professional. Kim offers a personal Photowalk with you to help with learning. Follow this amazing photographer.
