On top of all the last minute seniors, we had babies, kids, weddings, you name it. Taking a moment out of the day to write a blog was nearly impossible. But I want to share a few exciting things-
Last month I entered our District Competition. Districts preceed the IPC (International Photographic Competition) and any images that receive a seal at districts automatically receive a merit at IPC..pending the maker actually sending the print in :)
This was my first year sending to Districts, and to say I was nervous is an understatement. I second guessed my choices over and over, and almost didn't sent one print in at the last minute. I'm proud to say that my images did better than I could have ever expected.
Angel Eyes-
Received a score of 90 ("Superior"). Funny enough, this was the print I wasn't sure about sending in. I'm very glad I did! This was my highest scoring print.
Parodox in Pride
received a score of 88( "Excellent").
(both images can be viewed here-
My other two prints received scores equaling "above average".
Honestly, it would take days to explain how these prints are scored and what they all mean. Just know that a score of 80(deserving of a merit) is all that is needed to get a seal. I'm honored that these two images will be hanging at the exhibit next year @Imaging USA. I've helped with the print set up crew 2 years in a row admiring the beautiful work. Next year I'll be able to see my own images there as well. Truly a blessing and an honor.
I finished my entry for the IPC last night, so now I just have to wait and hear how the other two images do, and if these two are selected for the Loan Collection. Whatever happens I'm okay with it. We shall see!
I just want to end this post with a thank you. I've been lucky enough to get to know some amazing clients and friends. I love my job, and I love creating great images for my clients. I truly appreciate everyone that trusts me to capture their life moments! Thank you!
