For the love of Provence

Not yet noon, and the temperature is in the mid-eighties and rising. Summer has set in. Fresh figs for breakfast, warm from the sun. Dogs asleep in the shade. When bestselling photographer Rachael Hale McKenna embarked on a new life in France, it was inevitable that she would turn her talents to capturing the beauty of the world around her. Evoking a gentle change of pace, Rachael's imagery immerses us in French daily life: The scenery and unique light that inspired a generation of artists; The ancient villages and fortified towns; The beaches of the glittering Cote d'Azur that draw crowds of tourists; The taste of fresh Mediterranean-inspired cuisine that bursts like summer in the mouth, washed down with a pale and blushing rose.
