Although I was very intimidated and nervous about what people would think of my work, I started entering photography competitions during the year 2018 due to the encouragement of my friend Laura Howell. I have been blessed to have won so many since then. Listening to the insight and knowledge of varied judges when their opinions were made available, I have been able to improve my work and grow along the way. To Laura, the judges, and the hosts of the competitions I say Thank You.
