A special thanks to our friend and professional photographer Greg Gorman for his collaboration as a guest judge in this photo contest. From personality portraits and advertising campaigns to magazine layouts and fine art work, Greg Gorman has developed and showcased a discriminating and unique style in his profession over the past four decades. Mr. Gorman is a master fine-art photographer whose images of stage, film, sports and music personalities are both stunningly beautiful and iconic. His distinctive use of light in his black and white portraits is one the identifying aspects of a Gorman photograph.
"For me this image really gets down to the soul of the portrait! Both girls are very focussed and the connection Paulina has gotten from them is evident. The balance in terms of shape and form is excellent as well as the lighting which is not over done. The image comes across direct and clear. A very connected portrait!" - Greg Gorman
"This portrait also exhibits very direct confrontation and immediately engages the viewer on many levels thus successfully connecting the portrait with the viewer. The level of intimacy and the haunting stare in the eyes comes across and creates a level of intrigue between the viewer and the subject, which keeps bringing you back to the picture." - Greg Gorman
