Moments With Mom Photo Contest Finalists

Thank you to all the photographers that shared their favorite photos of unique moments with moms in this photo contest with chances to win a Tamron 18-200mm lens and more!

We are excited to present for this contest Master Judge Mariia Tarasova:
Hey! My name is Mary, I'm a photographer from Central Florida! I developed a passion for photography at the age of 16, which I have pursued ever since. Initially, I worked as part of a team of photographers to capture large-scale events, while simultaneously indulging in my love for studio portrait photography for a decade. Upon relocating to the United States, I became inspired by the stunning landscapes and favorable weather, which motivated me to create truly exceptional works. I believe that a photographer should not only have expertise with the camera but also possess great psychological insight. A great photographer can anticipate when something extraordinary is about to happen - the moment when a person opens up and shares their life story, or a child experiences a moment of pure joy while touching a flower in a field. This is more than just a photograph; it is the photographer's unique perspective of the world, which captures the genuine emotions and experiences of people.
