On Monday I shared with you that my submission of Jaryn had made it to the finalist round to be considered for “The 12”. This national competition has more to do with the telling of Jaryn’s story than it does with me. Everybody has a story to tell about their life, where it’s been, where it is and where it’s going. When I decided earlier this year that I wanted my photography to include Seniors I knew that I had to tell “their” story.

Earlier this year I went to Chicago to photograph several of the current “12”. I have shared some of those images on my Instagram and Twitter page but not on my web site, Facebook Page or here. Over the next several days I will begin to share some of those images. But tonight I’ll begin with the “comp card” of Jaryn. All together there were about 15 images that I had submitted for her competition.

SEEN Magazine features a group of 12 high school seniors who are selected twice a year through a national submission and selection process with We Are The SEEN. The focus is on individualism, undiscovered talent and originality.

SEEN Magazine offers these unique individuals a platform to share their vision and their story with a broader audience. The magazine features up-and-coming photographers, style and culture, and selected brand collaborations.

SEEN Magazine has always been inspired by the idea that paving your own path opens up endless possibilities.

SEEN Magazine is unapologetic about following your own path, and believes that authenticity, originality and adventure should be celebrated. Much like the people they feature in the magazine.
