Mother Daughter
Price: $49.95
Through daily portraits, this five-year project charts the physical and emotional changes of two women at the opposite ends of the “young woman” spectrum. One was moving with excitement into adolescence; the other, with trepidation, into middle age. Each day, Elaine and Julia stopped their separate activities and met in their living room to pose for a portrait. They made 1,800 images—not truly comprehending the catalogue of energy and exhaustion, privacy and revelation, unexpected coincidences of mood and emotions that they created.

“Who has not examined her own face in the mirror, searching for signs of aging? Who has not scrutinized her mother or her daughter, searching for bits of herself like a treasure hunt? Elaine O’Neil and Julia Hess’s fascinating project will connect with these impulses in every woman. Judging from reactions to my book You’re Wearing THAT? I have no doubt that women will leap at the chance to see themselves reflected in these startling and artful images.”
—Deborah Tannen, University Professor and professor of linguistics at Georgetown University; author of You’re Wearing THAT?: Understanding Mothers and Daughters in Conversation

"Phyllis Kitt’s God’s Country is a landscape of church halls, chapels, bell towers, and steeples. Her photographs and informed, stylish text enlighten and delight us as she guides us through her God’s world. No architectural detail escapes her notice. We in the twenty-first century are in debt to her, as we are to the devout congregations, ministers, building committees, and architects, whether known or unknown, who bequeathed us such a wide-ranging panoply of architectural treasures.” —Stuart Bolger, Director Emeritus Genesee Country Village and MuseumPhoto-Editing and Presentation
Price: $24.95
This book introduces photographers, print-makers, and other graphic artists to the creative possibilities of image editing and presentation. The focus is on how meaning can be created and shaped if the emphasis is placed on the totality of the visual experience rather than by looking at each single image in isolation.

In recent years, Dia de los Muertos has become widely known not only throughout Mexico but also in the United States, drawing tourists in large numbers.
