PDN & International Photo Awards

This last contest season I had many stories that had not yet been completed or published, but I entered anyway, and my story and images for Vogue on Women of the Iditarod won awards through both PDN and IPA. Many thanks to the jurors!
I’ve also been working on more fine art, trying my best to tackle some of the issues about indigenous culture in a colonial world through photography. PDN and the Photographic Center Northwest separately awarded my image ‘Confluence’, from my new series, Myths of the Indigenous Arctic. It will also be shown in my upcoming exhibition People of the Whale at the Center for Fine Art Photography in October.

That Iditarod article was my favorite that I’ve seen on your blog so far!! It absolutely captured my heart. I love the Iditarod and I was privileged to see one or two ceremonial starts when I lived in Anchorage around 2016. I didn’t know that it allowed men and women to compete together– that’s awesome!
The photos and videos in the article were absolutely stunning. The dogs were adorable. And I loved how they inlaid the videos like gifs. Stunning effect.
