This is the 9th year for this contest and I am so happy to be the 2023 “Legends” judge for this year. I am so incredibly excited for all the talent in the teen/tween industry to enter this amazing contest. Often times I am asked what exactly I look for as a judge. I want you to keep in mind that I enjoy styles outside of my own work just as much as the style I shoot in. I’m looking forward to reviewing all of your images to compile who I think should be chosen by Senior Style Guide to be 2023’s 25 most influential tween/teen photographers.
The deadline to enter Modern Teen Style’s 25 Most Influential Teen Photographer Contest is MONDAY 5.31.23 at 11:59 pm eastern!

Some things to think abut as you start picking your submission photos...
We are looking for the following:
Creativity - Exposure - Composition - Posing - Use of light - Style - Editing
Beyond what's mentioned above, I look for dynamic posing, connection of the subject with the camera or viewer, advanced editing skills (not over editing skin and hair etc), photographers who are trendsetting and pushing the envelope with location, styling etc.
Every time I am asked to judge, I know how difficult of a task it is because this community is so incredibly talented and driven. I hope these contests push you like they push me outside of my comfort zone to try new things and set new goals for myself.
