Get Shot At Love Book, by Kerry Brett at www.shotatlovebook.com and on Amazon and join the singles movement!
When celebrity photographer Kerry Brett found herself at rock bottom after a devastating breakup, she never imagined her journey back would lead her to become a dating expert, award-winning podcaster, and author. But that's exactly what happened – and she's sharing every hilarious, heartbreaking, and enlightening step in her captivating new memoir.
Kerry's story begins in the magazine world, where she captured iconic portraits of figures like David Ortiz and Steve Carell over her 28-year career. But behind the camera, she was struggling to rebuild her life as a single mother navigating the then-new world of dating apps. Rather than seeing Tinder as intimidating, Kerry approached it with the same creative eye she brought to photography, treating her profile as a personal brand and discovering that authentic presentation was the key to meaningful connections.
What makes Kerry's journey uniquely powerful is how she blended modern dating technology with ancient spiritual practices. Each dating adventure – from "The German Leo" to "The Irish Leprechaun" – is paired with Sanskrit mantras that guided her path, reflecting wisdom gained from spiritual teachers like Namadeva Acharya, Thomas Ashley-Farrand. These Sanskrit mantras became anchors during uncertain times, helping Kerry maintain perspective when relationships didn't work out, teaching her that "rejection is protection."
The raw vulnerability in Kerry's storytelling creates an immediate connection with readers. Her willingness to share both triumphs and embarrassing moments – or epic moves like using a photograph with the real Peter Brady on her Tinder profile – makes her journey relatable to anyone who's ever felt lost in the dating world. Through her experiences, she proves that finding love isn't about perfection but authenticity: "You don't need to become perfect to find love – you're just okay the way you are."
Whether you're recovering from heartbreak, navigating dating apps for the first time, or simply enjoying a good love story, Kerry's journey from behind the camera to finding her own shot at love will inspire you to believe in new beginnings. Are you ready to transform your approach to dating and relationships? Pick up "Shot at Love" and discover why this celebrity photographer's unfiltered lens on love is changing how we view modern romance.
