Award Winning Photographer! 2022 Portrait Masters Awards

Friends, I’m an award winning photographer!! Isn’t that amazing?! 

Well you might have already known that and I’m not bragging, I’m just feeling so proud of myself for this wonderful accomplishment. I mean, I’ve submitted images before and have won awards in the past but I’m telling you, it doesn’t get old. Every single time I’m named as an award winning photographer (yay!), the feeling is the same. Elation! It’s such an honour to be included amongst my peers who I look up to and admire. 

Most recently I submitted 6 Intimate Portrait photos to the The Portrait Masters Image Awards 2022 that are run by Sue Bryce. I’m such a die-hard fan of Sue’s and the wonderful community that she has built around her teachings. This is yet again such great news that I wanted to share with you here.

For this competition, photographers are invited to submit their photos and they can be awarded Bronze, Silver or Gold, and some images can be category winners. I’m so proud to announce that this year I’m an award winning photographer with all 6 photos. Five of them are Bronze winners and one of them is a Bronze With Distinction! I’m so very pleased. Thank you so much to Sue and her team!

I also want to thank the incredible women in these winning photos: Jodi, Kim and Lisa. Thank YOU again for choosing me as your photographer to co-create art with you, and for trusting me to photograph you in this intimate way. You are all gems and I’m so proud to know each of you. Yay team!!
