Okay, your photos? SO great! Professional and warm and inviting. (Are we voting? I vote #3!!)
I love the idea of picturing the reader on the other side of the camera—I have such fondness for them, and there’s no way that doesn’t come through. And the book tour as gratitude tour is so lovely and true. What a perfect framing.
Thank you for sharing your author photo experience and featuring this info-packed interview with photographer Beowulf Sheehan — wonderful insights on the importance of the author photo and the creative ways to approach it.
Beowulf did my author photos too. It was an amazing experience watching him work. We talked a lot, and it’s wonderful to hear his voice in this interview.
Yes! The photographer as reader! I will not forget that. Your photos are fabulous.

He's the best, plus he has the best name.
Could he have had any other job?! Fated from birth.
