Editorial Reviews

Her work is so unique, instantly identifiable, and down right pretty that all the adjectives have been used up. Illuminations is not however a retrospective but a new collection that expands on her previous work and includes architectural and sculptural details. A departure from Tenneson's previous work. Illuminations is beautifully printed and an important addition to any photographer's library.
