West – June 2022 – Portrait/Illustration

Judges Comments

First place. really like the organic nature of the photo. Her personality says it all before even reading the caption. Second place I would not have thought of framing it that way but it works and is organic. It wasn't posed that way. # 3 - Love the athleticism that the kid is able to show. The photographer and the subject had to be in sync to make this happen. Are the sports photographers the same photographer? They could have made a good photo story, and photo essay. As a whole, all of these photos make a strong package.
