Debbie Travis is a decor and lifestyle icon in Canada and I grew up watching her on television. I have always loved her enthusiasm, so when I got a call to shoot her London townhouse for Style at Home magazine, I was thrilled. We connected again, years later, and I had the incredible privilege to photograph her book Joy: Life Lessons from a Tuscan Villa. Joy is a heart warming look at life in Tuscany and how we can add a touch of Tuscan 'sweet life' to our own. Enjoy a sneak peak of the book below + a few photos of Debbie that I have taken over the years!
