North Adams - On Tuesday, December 20, portrait photographer Amanda Jones will be a featured guest on ABC's popular morning program Good Morning America. This nationally televised interview will follow a Sunday feature article in The New York Times about Ms. Jones and her work entitled "Smile and Say 'Bone'" published on November 13, 2005. Ms. Jones was interviewed for the article during a New York City portrait session at a Chelsea photography studio as she awaited her clients and their beloved pets. Amanda Jones began her career in 1992 after graduating with a degree in Cinema and Photography from Ithaca College in New York. In 1994, Ms. Jones began photographing dogs in Maine after her best friend brought home Ruby, a yellow Labrador Retriever puppy, and has been photographing dogs and cats for clients ever since. Ms. Jones travels the country extensively for portrait sessions with an occasional trip to London. Jones has created three books: Greyhounds Big and Small, Frenchie Kisses and Dachshunds Short and Long. Additionally, her images grace greeting cards, posters and calendars. "I'm excited about the national media interest in my specialized work," said Amanda Jones. "I really enjoy what I do and am thrilled with the recent feedback from The New York Times article. I am bracing myself for what is to come after Good Morning America," she added. Amanda Jones creates simple, customized portraits of animals and the occasional child. She crafts lasting imagery from her portrait sessions through all stages of development and printing, by hand. The Amanda Jones Photography studio and production space is located at 61 Main Street in North Adams, Mass. For additional information, call 877-251-2390 or visit www.amandajones.com .
