WPPI Awards
March 24th, 2010
WPPI has one of the best print and album competitions around. Photographers from all over the planet submit their work to be judged. The judging is always so amazing to sit in on as you get to hear the judges battle it out and give their thoughts on each image. The awards night included a great video of the judges making fun of themselves.
This is my 3rd year doing the competition and every year I walk away blown away by the work I see. This year I placed 3rd in the commercial advertising category for the work at USC Hospital. Thanks to Kate Heller-Thomas over at Malone & Company for her stellar post work. 2 of my other images received Accolades of Excellence Awards. The really exciting thing is this year WPPI opened up the album fusion category, which allows for moving image or slideshows with music. My piece of my son Avery’s birth won first place! Props to Jaime O’Bradovich with helping on the edit.
I’m honored to be included with so many talented photographers.

Upcoming Travels
February 5th, 2009
I will be leaving in just over a week for about 10 days on the road. My first stop is Phoenix for an engagement session with Lynn and Garrett.
From there I head to Las Vegas for the WPPI convention. My first time attending was 9 years ago and hadn’t been back since last year. It was so refreshing to see all the talent from many different types of photographers. I entered 6 images and 4 of them scored in the print competition. I entered again this year so we’ll see what happens. Below is my page from the 2008 Annual Book. After a few days in Vegas, I head to Tortola for Peter & Stephanie’s wedding.

I meant to post this a while ago. Everywhere I went at WPPI there was a really hip photo booth, called Foto Cabina.
I’d love to see one of these at a wedding!
Below is Julie Morris from Grand Island and Shane and Erin Melenbacker from Kearney.
