NYPHA'09 Nominations

in , , , , ,

I am happy to say I have been included it the large list of Nominations for the 2009 New York Photo Awards. I have been accepted into two categories, Advertising Series for my Microsoft I'm a PC work and Student Fine Art Series for a series of images on Beijing I made this past August. I'll update this page with an image from that series soon.

Last year I had fun going through the list of nominations and linking to their portfolio pages. This year I think there are way too many with almost 300 nominations! So, until I get an intern I'll let you google them this time.

If you going to be around this weekend let me know I would love to run into people at the festival. I am not sure how much of it I can make since I have a very busy weekend with Graduation on Friday! but you should check out the festival's schedule here.

from the Press Release:

NYPHA'09 Nominations The Jury of the New York Photo Awards 2009 (NYPHA'09) is pleased to announce the following Nominees.

To be named a nominee of the New York Photo Awards 2009 means that one has been selected for the final round of judging, during which time only three finalists will be chosen (Winner and two Honorable Mentions). Considering the number of rounds that the Jury has already been through, being nominated is truly an award in and of itself. We are very proud of this year’s Nominees. It is clear that they represent the Future of Contemporary Photography, and we wish them continued success.

The Winners and Honorable Mentions will be announced (and their work presented) at the Gala Ceremony for the New York Photo Awards 2009 on Friday, May 15th at 8pm in the St. Ann’s Warehouse Auditorium. This is a special ticketed event, there are only 415 seats, and they are selling out fast. Last year, we packed the place to the gills, and still had another 200+ people flowing out to the streets. So, if you want a seat, you have to have a ticket. Festival passes and tickets can be purchased here.

Without much further ado, the Nominees for the New York Photo Awards 2009 are:
