Publishers' Letter
Writer and Paca Girlfriends committee member Mary Ann Treger approached us about having a photographic contest of women who attended the 2016 Paca Girlfriends’ Party in support of Historic Annapolis. We liked the idea and asked interior designer Katalin Farnady to conceive and install an outdoor photographic studio in the William Paca Garden. Photographer Angie Myers took pictures of over one hundred women who volunteered to participate. By the end of the event, we were exhausted from coordinating and arranging so many portrait sittings in one evening. But we left with a great catalogue of images representing Annapolis area women of all ages. We then enlisted a panel of judges, a style editor, a fitness trainer, a designer and an aesthetician to select and recommend a “cover girl” for this issue. There were many favorites but Halie Kellagher rose to the top. We invited Jennifer Kolosky Eastman of Sweet Bespoke Photography to photograph Halie in the Paca Garden for the cover. We thank Renee Kaplan of David Alexander Salon and Spa for bringing her talent as a master makeup artist to this cover project. We hope you enjoy viewing this photographic collage of the participants and celebrate with us the essential power of friendships for women as well as men. In health and spirit, Kymberly Taylor & Robert Haywood, Publishers, and all of us at LOOKING GOOD kymberly@annapolishomemag.com robert@annapolishomemag.com 8
