I’m proud to announce our 9th finalist. Daniel R. Winters lives in Brooklyn, NY. Christian shoots fashion photography that is clean, simple and captivating. Daniel’s approach is refreshing. I see many fashion portfolios where the photographer relies on models with over-the-top makeup or sets that are out of this world. In these cases, the photographs only stand out because of the subject or the location. Daniel’s photos stand out because they have a pure simplicity that shows off the right stuff without being – well too showy.
Take a look at Daniel’s work here. Congratulations to Daniel. We’re going to announce the next finalist in two weeks.
And here’s a complete list of the finalists so far
1. Ara Roselan
2. Ana Adams
7. Chitra Aiyer
