I finally did it! I’ve entered @thestormys since 2022 & it taught me how to weather rejection quietly & keep pushing myself. Winning Photographer of the Year feels surreal and hard earned. So thankful to @TimBacaWeather & this community that makes me better. Truly grateful.

Just submitted my entries to the @thestormys 📸🫡 Was surprised I had anything to even submit. This winter has been so boring and long that 2025 seems like years ago.

This is such a massive honor. The competition was absolutely fierce and it couldn’t have been an easy choice. Deep down I want to wax poetic all over the place, and share what this truly means to me, but even as a lover of words, they are escaping me.

Its an honor to be recognized as a 3rd place finalist in @thestormys, especially given that this was the first year that I truly felt like I had photographs worth submitting. Mother Nature and this scene did the heavy lifting, I just needed to push a few buttons. Thanks ya'll 🤍
