WIGS by Prescott Moore Lassman
HONORABLE MENTION
HONORABLE MENTION
Prescott Moore Lassman says, “I am a photographer based in Washington, D.C. focusing mainly on black-and-white photography — somewhere between street and documentary with a strong dose of minimalism for good measure.
My subject matter and interests are eclectic, but my approach is mostly intuitive. I search for images that resonate, for moments of synchronicity in everyday life.
Because this approach relies on unconscious triggers, my photographs are often richly symbolic, though their meaning is not immediately clear (at least not to me).
For me, this is the essence of photography: capturing an image that resonates and then, over the course of months or years, figuring out why.
The photographs submitted for Siblings were taken of my twin daughters. Any sibling relationship is intense, but that is particularly the case with twins. These photographs seek to show the enduring connection that exists not only during active play, but even in those quiet moments of shared solitude.”

Carnival Laughs by Meghan E. Jones
HONORABLE MENTION
HONORABLE MENTION
Meghan E. Jones says. "Combining creative artistic expression with the integrity so deeply rooted in the photojournalism of my past, I capture the energy of excitement and anticipation right before something big happens.
I seek out quiet moments of calm and reflective repose in a chaotic setting. I search for that scene behind the scene and catch the details that others might miss.
I record other people’s perspectives, as well as my own, and what it means to be vulnerable. How these vulnerabilities bring us closer together, even if we don’t share the exact experience.
In photographing my surroundings, I explore my own personal struggles, illustrate the stories of others, and find a connection to truth-all while finding beauty in the everyday.
I am a documentary photographer, and I photograph the truth."
Meghan E. Jones explores the connections of beauty, authenticity, and vulnerability through creative storytelling photography.
Born in Virginia Beach into a military home, living throughout the U.S. and traveling the world inspired her to seek out the truth in her surroundings through art.
After graduation in 2001 from Salve Regina University in Newport, R.I., Meghan moved to Seattle to pursue her photojournalism career.
Meghan’s work combines the creative artistic expression with integrity so deeply rooted in photojournalism.
Her passion for documentary truth seeking through beautiful photographs inspires her to create images that inspire the viewer to ask questions, see themselves, and find connection with her work.
Her photos have been published in The New York Times, Time Magazine, The Seattle PI, The King County Journal, Sound Publishing Newspapers and various online publications.
