Wrestling Honoree and Nude Nominee - Black & White Spider Awards

I was awarded 5 Honorable Mentions and nominated in 17 times in 6 categories in the 20th Annual Black and White Spider Awards!

“Original Platinum Blonde” from Black in Black and White was nominated in Fashion - I didn’t even remember entering that category!

I have been photographing nude men for over 10 years at this point and was pleased to see some of the full-frontal male nude photography I submitted was nominated. But the honor that really excited me was for my wrestling photography. That photography is still strictly for the thrill of it! AND they selected images of one of my all-time faves, CM Punk. 

I also have work in Portrait, People, Nude, Sport and Silhouette. See them all in the video below.

This competition was juried by professionals from Tate Modern, Sotheby's, ArtNet amongst numerous other curators and gallerists from around the world.
