Portrait: Honorable Mention 2022 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Earlier this year, I had the privilege of creating a body of work for an exhibit at the college I instruct at. I found the opportunity to be the perfect chance to photograph some of my peers across campus, including the great Dan York pictured here.
I met Dan during a student semester art show on campus after he won an award for one of his photographs- one of the perks of teaching on our campus is that you can take classes in other departments. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that he was a professor of anatomy!
There were many reasons as to why I chose to photograph Dan, number one being our friendship, number two being his "Abraham Lincoln" gaze and stature, and number three... well, we had full access to the anatomy lab.

I consider my photography to be a collaboration between myself and the world around me.
