Accreditation & Competition

I am coming down to the wire on getting all of my images in for accreditation and the competition. I am working towards my accreditation as a photographer and it adds to the excitement with awards. I have been entering competitions since 2017. I think this has made me a better photographer in general but it has introduced me more to the style of photography I adore and love. Competition and accreditation isn't for everyone but it will help you grow as a photographer. You can still be an outstanding photographer without awards or accreditation.

So here are my images this go around. I am hoping they will do well. I am wanting to move out of the bronze award category, into the silver category. Any award is an honor, there are some really awesome photographers that enter from all over the world. But my personal goal it to keep getting better, so I'm pushing for silver. #TeamSilver2020
