  See I knew you were one of the best to consult with.... I have fallen in love with your images and hope that I too some day have beautiful people photos just as you. You are a huge inspiration to me.

This photo is right on the money and I am not surprised to see it in the first place spot.

As I stated to Ken, I am also honored to be on top along side you in the first place spot with such talented photographers.

Congrats......
