PHOTO REQUEST - Native American

I’m taking a gamble that maybe one or two people here have shots from, or maybe can refer me to other shooters, that would have appropriate coverage. This is for a book project…

please send replies to research@enlightphoto.com

Can you say a bit more about your project Gary?
My husband used to own a trading post in Zuni.

Cathy:

It’s a large format coffee-table style book, being custom published for a non-profit Gov’t org specifically related to Native Americans. It is a detail study of native culture, crafts, art, cooking, dances, etc..

- Cheers,

Gary.
