Glazers Portfolio Award Scholarship 2016 2nd Place at Seattle Central Creative Academy

Every year at Seattle Central Creative Academy’s Commercial Photography program, Glazer’s Camera hosts a Portfolio Award scholarship competition, where all 2nd-year students select their best 10-image portfolio for private review from an invited group of judges consisting of local Seattle photography industry professionals. All individual images were scored by the 12 judges with 10 points each allocated towards concept, technical execution, and overall image quality, for a possible total of 30 points per image and 360 points overall. We spent a great deal of time reviewing images and sequencing our portfolios. My final top 10 focused on a mix of outdoor adventure lifestyle and product photography. With a score of 327, I came in 2nd place overall and won a nice scholarship check. My extremely talented classmate, Mary Dee Mateo, came in 1st place overall. Thank you to Glazer’s Camera for their years of incredibly generous support of our program. They are a fixture of Seattle’s photography community.
