International Print Competition
The images below start with the Montana Professional Photographers Association annual print competition. Some have won awards and some have not. From the state level, the images are then sent on to the Western District competition where they are judged again on a larger scale. From here, the best ones go to the International Photographic Competition held every year in Atlanta, George by the Professional Photographers of America. The images with the gold tag in the upper right corner have scored enough to hang in the International Exhibit at the Imaging USA conference every year held in various cities around the US.
The importance of the images you see is that it has allowed me to grow in my profession and provided one means of education to work to give my clients the best I can. These images have also be a part of attaining my Master of Photography Degree as well as service to my state and at the National level. It is rewarding to be able to see my work hanging of different clients at the exhibit as well as give back to my fellow photographers by serving through teaching and volunteering on committees as well as at conventions.
I have been fortunate to be a part of Montana Professional Photographers for almost 15 Years. I have served on the board for 6 years and was President in 2018.
I hope you enjoy the creativeness in the images as well as the stories told. Maybe one of you, my clients or new clients, may grace the walls of the International's Exhibit one year!
