LiveJoy Photography Recognized in NAPCP Top 100 National Image Competition

I am deeply honored to share that one of my images was selected as a Top 100 photograph in the 2025 Inspired Print Competition hosted by the National Association of Portrait & Child Photographers.

The image was chosen in the Connections category, a theme that speaks directly to the heart of my work. Connection is what I am always looking for. The quiet moments. The trust. The tenderness that exists long before words. And this image was just that!

This international competition welcomed artists from around the world, with selected work displayed in a live gallery event in Atlanta, Georgia. I was unable to be there in person, but being included among this group of artists is incredibly meaningful and something I am truly grateful for. It was so much fun to see my image in print with the rest of them!

I am always so honored and humbled every time I win an award like this. The years of dedication and tears and learning and growth are usually hidden behind the scenes, so it is so life-giving to be honored like this.

Thank you National Association of Portrait and Child Photographers for this recognition!
