From Winning Moments to Worldly Adventures: A Journey of Art and Exploration
I am beyond thrilled to finally share some exciting news with you! Seven of my images were selected as part of the Top 100 in the National Association of Portrait and Child Photographers (NAPCP) Inspired Gallery Event & Print Competition. This recognition holds a special place in my heart, not only because these images reflect my passion but because they were part of an extraordinary journey that took me across breathtaking landscapes and inspired a new chapter for Simply Shelby Photography.
In July, I had the honor of attending the live judging event in Atlanta, where one of my landscape photographs placed third, and another image received an honorable mention. As if that wasn’t enough to celebrate, three of these images were also awarded the title of “Official Selection” in the prestigious International Photography Awards (IPA), with one being further recognized as a “Jury Top Five” selection.
These moments were incredibly humbling and motivating, pushing me to create and share even more. I’m grateful for the experiences and the beauty that inspired these images—experiences that have also led me to launch Simply Travel, a personal travel blog where I will share the journeys and beautiful places that inspire my work. I have been waiting for just the right time to share these images, and now feels perfect as I take a step forward in a new direction with Simply Travel. Stay tuned for more beautiful destinations and personal travel experiences that continue to shape my photography.
Thank you for your constant support, and I’m excited to share this next chapter with you. Your encouragement and belief in my work have been a driving force behind every step of this journey. I can’t wait to take you along as we explore new places, capture unforgettable moments, and continue to celebrate the beauty of the world through my lens.
