Author: Daniel XavierA Organização Mundial da Saúde estima que, por ano, ocorram mais de 1.050.000 casos novos de câncer de mama em todo o mundo, o que o torna o câncer mais comum entre as mulheres.

Internacionalmente, tem-se observado, em alguns países desenvolvidos, como é o caso dos Estados Unidos, Canadá, Reino Unido, Holanda, Dinamarca e Noruega, um aumento da incidência do câncer de mama acompanhado de uma redução da mortalidade por esse câncer, o que está associado à detecção precoce por meio da...more

Little did she realise that I too, behind the camera, was also struggling to keep my composure. It had been an emotional day one way and another but now as we neared the end of the shoot and the realisation of what we had achieved was beginning to hit home we were both in danger of "losing it". Allow me to explain...I first met Sheryl a little over two years ago when she booked us to undertake her wedding photography. Originally she wasn't going to have a photographer, not because of the cost involved but because it didn't rate very highly up her list of things she needed in order to enjoy the wedding she wanted. Her wedding date was set for the end of July and she had it all planned to perfection, 12 bridesmaids a quiet civil ceremony in York register office, followed by a wedding breakfast at the Dean Court hotel, near the Minster and then her evening reception on a boat along the River Ouse.
