I've been keeping a secret for months and can finally reveal it.  My shell photograph, "Bliss," is now in EVERY Target store in the country for the next few months.  How cool is that!?!  Yippee!!!! :) 

I was contacted back in the winter by a design firm that finds new images for Target stores.  They asked if they could use this photograph.  I asked what they'd be using it for and almost fell off my couch when I read their reply..."It will be used in Target stores."  What?!?!?  It took less than a second for me to say YES! 

That is of course me in this picture.  My sister and I took my camera to Target to check it out, it was so fun.  We felt a little funny taking pictures by this rack of clothes where my photo lives as curious shoppers were looking at us wondering, "what in the world are they doing?" but we had a ball and laughed a lot.

If you want to check out my photograph when you're in Target for your usual errands, it's on a women's clothing rack, on the isle as you get closer to the fitting rooms.  I didn't realize they were going to edit my photo.  They made it look a lot duller and a much more muted pink color to match a few other photos on racks next to it.  Whatever they wanted to do is fine with me though.  I got paid a pretty penny for it and how cool is it to say, "My photo is in Target!"  :)
