If you haven’t yet seen the “10 Best 10” competition circulating around the blogs, see here. Last year, I was chosen as one of the 10 (was fun!) and this year I am one of the judges. This competition is presented by WIN-Initiative and co-hosted by a long list of fantastic international art and culture magazine, including one of my favorites, Eyemazing.
I look forward to seeing all the work come in!
This past Saterday at Bathhouse Studios, there was a party celebrating the winners of the 10 Best 10 Award. Several winners including myself attended, among many others. That night, I found out they used one of my favorite photos as the cover image on the Awards book, sponsered by Blurb. Thank you Blurb and Resource and WIN. What a fun event and beautiful final product!
Tonight, Hans Neleman of WIN Initiative, is throwing a party for the winners of the 10 Best 10 Award. Myself along with the 9 other photographers should be there toasting with champagne. Hope you can make it. Here’s the invite. Contact me for further details.
I was just selected as 1 of 10 out of 900 photographers from 68 countries who submitted their work to WINK and Resource Magazine 10 Best 10.

I was nominated last week as one of the Finalists for Photo Lucida’s Critical Mass. This annual competition is always a great one to enter because you get to share your work with over 200 industry professionals (the judges) and often in return get very interesting feedback. Enter and support Photo Lucida!
This summer, I was 1 of the judges for the 2009 Surface Magazine Avant Guardian Competition. The winners will be revealed when the magazine hits the stands November 1st. When the launch party is announced, you will all be invited.
I was contacted last month by London-based Stuart Pilkington, Curator of the 50 States Project and the Alphabet Project, to be part of his next curated project, entitled American Women- alongside other 19 other American photographers. Over the course of 2010, he will present us each with 4 different portraiture assignments. Our work will be showcased on a site dedicated to the project, for launch in early October.
