So hard to choose! I love the muted yellow and green background on #8 which seems to make the baby's blue eyes really stand out. The wedding photo with the couple in color and the city behind them in black and white is very artistic. My favorite is #23 for the combined elements of casual, bright, texture and clearly a happy moment.

I vote for this one! These are my kids, so I'm a little bit biased, but having been there and knowing that Betsy got this shot when they were both cold, overtired, and just basically miserable, I give her a whole lot of credit!
I have always loved blk & wht and this one really calls to me. The plain white shirts look so crisp against the wooden background. Great as usual Betsy!
After starting a major in art in college I saw a commercial on television on a photography program at The Art Institute of Philadelphia. I had been to a Livingston Taylor concert a few weeks before and had shown him a photo I had taken of him at a previous concert.
He loved it so much he asked me to have one printed for him as a publicity photo. Back to the commercial, when I saw it I knew from that moment what career path I wanted to take. I enrolled in their photography program and after a year there I started my own photo business doing portraits, weddings, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and schools. That was in the mid 1980’s. I try to portray each client just as they are, capturing them at a given moment that I think shows their personality.
