QLP Wins 2 International Book Awards!

 

The International Book Awards were announced today and we are very proud to be able to tell you that Quiet Light Publishing garnered two awards.

The International Book Awards received thousands of entries in over 140 categories. This year books were submitted from 11 different countries.

Their Love of Music by Stephen Azzato (ISBN 9780975395431) was named the Winner in the Photography: People category.

Steve Azzato has captured the essence of the creative spirit in the faces and words of the musicians themselves. Featuring portraits of one-hundred seventeen artists, the book takes a slightly different approach to music photography than typically seen. Steve was able to sit with a wide range of musicians and explore what drew them to their art.

 Great Smoky Mountains National Park: Thirty Years of American Landscapes by Richard Mack (ISBN 9780975395424) was named the Winner for Photography: Nature.

What began as a camping excursion for a “20 something” photographer, has culminated into a 245 image book sweeping the array of seasons at this our most visited national park.  From its lush dew laden prairie grass near Cades Cove to sunset from Morton Overlook after a late winter snowfall on Clingmans Dome, Richard’s photos capture this pristine treasure of 2 million acres spanning from Tennessee to North Carolina.

We are honored to have been selected winners for these two great books! Of course you can purchase any of our books from your favorite bookseller or get yours signed by the photographers by purchasing them through Quiet Light Publishing.
