To Whom It May Concern:

I saw your November 16 job posting on Artists Network for a lead photographer
for Mr. Stevenson's upcoming book. Attached you will find my resume and a
collection of my best photographs. I think you will agree that I have an extensive
technical background in this particular field as well as an ability to capture the
essence of the building without any words. I actually had the opportunity to meet
Mr. Stevenson at the grand opening gala for the Straford Opera Hall. I was
moved by his passion for his work, and it would be an honor to collaborate with
him on this project.
Thank you for your consideration.
Kindest regards,
Armi Matilla
