If you’ve been to my website, you may have looked around and taken a peek into what some of my dreams are. Among the list of big and small hopes there’s one dream that I’m hoping to make a reality sometime in the very near future. And that’s to be published.

I know what it’s like to see a logo I designed or a billboard I created up for the whole world to see. It’s exciting and it makes me feel really proud! Sometimes it’s easy to get down on yourself and think that you’re not as good as you should be or need to be. That you won’t succeed. I believe that getting published is one of the first ways I’ll know I’m succeeding… that I’m doing something right. To have you images on a forum or in a magazine that reaches hundreds of thousands of people – that’s an honor and an exciting thought!

Well I seem to have taken my first baby steps towards getting published this week because on Wednesday one of my sessions was featured on the ShopTalk blog. I was so excited when I found out I was going to get featured. I don’t know how much exposure I’ll get from it, but what’s awesome in my mind is that this is the first step! While this blog is more for photographers, my hope is to have my artwork show up on blogs or in magazines that cater more to my kind of clients.

If you’re interested at peeking at the feature, you can find it here: http://www.shoptalkphotography.com/2012/04/11/stephanie-gagnon/ I’d love for you to leave your thoughts or comments either over on the ShopTalk blog or here! And thank you to all my amazing clients who’ve encouraged and helped me over the years! Without you guys, I definitely wouldn’t have made it this far!

I hope you’re all having a great Friday and I’ll see back here next week! Until then, remember…
