After attending ComeUnity (a professional photography workshop) last fall, I set a goal to enter my images into competition. There is a big difference between a competition and a contest. The Shoot & Share photography contest that I shared yesterday for example, allowed anyone to view the photos randomly and vote for their favorites. The photos with the most votes won. The Shuttferfest Image Competition, on the other hand, is scored by professional photographers/judges using the Portrait Photographers Association 12 Elements to a Merit Image guidelines.
The results arrived much sooner than I anticipated and I’m tickled to announce that both images I submitted merited and received Shutterfest 2017 Vision Awards! That means I now get to enjoy the feather in my hat of being an award winning child and pet photographer!
While the peer recognition is extremely exciting, I’m actually looking forward most to seeing the video of the judging. Why?! You might ask. Okay, I might also be a little nervous about the critiques, but my objective in entering the competition was to push myself to grow as an artist, grow as a business owner and grow as a person. I truly look forward to the honest, unbiased and useful feedback I anticipate from the judges.
Thank you to my friends and mentors who encouraged me to step outside of my comfort zone and enter!
Imagine, as a little girl, waking up everyday to these pictures. Reminding you how magical the world is, if you simply allow yourself to believe. Brie doesn’t have to imagine because these will soon be hanging on in her bedroom.
Printed on a metallic paper with a protective laminate coating results in a velvety soft appears with an elegant undertone of shimmer. Finished off perfectly by barn wood frames full of character. Absolutely breath taking in person!
Perfect for those who want to keep their album on display!
A rotating display of fine art mounted prints. Includes a beautifully crafted solid wood base in 4 colors of stain. A solid styrene (super smooth plastic substrate) mount for your prints won’t warp over time and allows you to keep your images out in the open where you can enjoy them.
