DEDICATION This book is dedicated to my sister Deborah Lundsford, who passed this year. From the first day I picked up a camera, some thirty years ago, Deb was always my biggest fan. I miss you! And to my children, Stephanie and Tyler; without their patience, this book would not have been written. Find your passion in life, then follow through with compassion, integrity, and balance. You two are my world.
