Recently, I was runner up for international organization WPJA’s Photojournalistic Photographer of the Year, and won also first and second places in WPPI’s various wedding photojournalism categories.

The Orphan Works bill is a terrible bill that will make it very hard for photographers and other creative people to protect for their work.
