Louisiana photographer Ann Marye George has been named winner of an international contest sponsored by the Professional Women Photographers Association. The theme of the competition was CONTRASTS, and Ann won with a set of three images, including the one shown above.
More of Ann's work is on her website HERE. There is an interview with her on the PWP blog HERE.
Ann does intriguing work, much of it in a romantic mood, with lots of attention to surface textures, to interesting use of monochromatic tones, and to evocative imagery, as well as more classic, very well seen B&W work.
Though she did shoot a portfolio of straight color portraits of Rod Stewart in concert. Oh well, a shooter has got to get paid, after all.
Thanks to Lori Vrba for bringing Ann and her work, and her award, to my attention.
