Winners Annouced!! PX3 – Prix de la Photographie Paris
I am so excited to announce that I received two honorable mentions in PX3 Prix de la photographie Paris…of course I only entered two so I am pretty happy!! Although the competition is over the people’s choice award is still out there, so if you feel up to it you can always vote for the images here…http://www.px3.fr/submit/vote/index.php (one of my images is on page 4 of fine art nudes and the other is on page 4 of Portraiture – Personality)
My first entry was under the “Personality” category. The image is of the fine art nude model Nettie Harris, if you haven’t seen or followed her blog “Rhythm Before Unknown” it is absolutely amazing. She is one of the most honest and sincere people I have ever had to chance to photograph. When I look through the thousands of images Nettie has had taken, there is an amazing balance of wisdom and innocence in her images. I really wanted to bring out this part of her in this portrait, which I ironically titled “rhythm”.
My second entry was in the “Fine Art Nudes” category and is also of some of my favorite models who happen to have amazing blogs (I see a trend here!). This image of Roarie and Lola was taken after a long, but extremely fun day of shooting. I had been only photographing Roarie, who has this amazing intensity about her. This image came about based on the chemistry the two of them have as friends and the insane of amount of intensity and drive Roarie has…which she just happens to push on Lola a bit 
This image is titled “Excogitation”
