2013 Scholarship Entry: Wanderlust's Waikiki

USA | Thursday, June 27, 2013 | 5 photos

I am a 34 year old professional, currently taking a master's degree on a part-time basis. I have been passionate about photography for over 20 years. Over the past 3 years, I have become more prolific due to an investment in equipment that allows me to better express my artistic vision.

I am a strong candidate because I am driven and eager to learn from an established photographer such as Jason Edwards. Beyond my drive and eagerness to learn from Jason, my photographic vision and talent allows me to capture images in such a way that my audience has a genuine feeling as though they've been to or have experienced the place or subject I have captured. My photos consistently receive this feedback.

I take particular pride in my ability to identify and compose a scene that many others would not notice. Once I have composed an unnoticed scene in my mind, I am tenacious enough to do everything I can to translate that mental image into a photographic image.

In summary, I believe I should be chosen because I am experienced, driven, eager, and tenacious. My unique vision will allow your audience to experience Greenland as Rough. Real. and Remote as the assignment demands.
