Brooke Shaden + creativeLIVE = Happiest Time Ever!

Oh honestly now, how am I supposed to start writing about an experience as massive, life-changing, and jaw-dropping as creativeLIVE? I am truly stumped, as I have been for days, hence my putting off writing these words. I thought something brilliant would come to me, but since it hasn’t I decided to write from the [...]

Mystery & Intrigue Contest Winners!

This contest was very difficult for me…So difficult that I am only now sharing the results 18 days past the deadline. I struggled a lot here, because of the variety of images submitted. There is a winner, but the rest are honorable mentions as I felt so incredibly strongly about so many of the images [...]

August Contest Winners!

I had pretty much written down every single picture as a contender for winning the August contest once I had gotten through with the first page. To say judging was hard would be an understatement. I encourage anyone reading this to flick through the images submitted for the contest this past month. It was astonishing. [...]

“Nature” Contest Winners!

About 20 minutes after beginning to judge this contest I already had one full page of links written down as my “short list”, which ended up being my absurdly long list. I was really touched by so many images in this contest, so I urge you – if you are looking for inspiration, search the [...]

April Contest: Emotions

After a two month hiatus, I am bringing back my monthly contests…and I decided to do it with a bang! First off, I put the word out about potential contest themes and the highest voted theme was “EMOTIONS”. Now, as usual, this is extremely open-ended. The emotion the image portrays could be happy, sad, angry, [...]

January “Rebirth / New Beginnings” Contest Winners

I sound like a broken record, but this was the hardest month I have ever judged for these contests. There is so much soul and depth that goes in to so many of these pictures, and while I think the images listed below are exceptional, I think that all are worthy of recognition and praise. [...]

December “Journey” Contest Winners

Welcome to 2012 everyone!! A bit of business still has to be tied up from 2011 though, so here I am presenting the winners of my December 2011 “Journey” themed contest! The submissions were TRULY inspirational. I had a very hard time with this one, more so than the others, because I felt that so [...]

Contest #5 Winners: Motion

November seemed to be a great month for movement. There were so many submissions to the contest this month, and even after I went through all of them I still had a 3 page document of links that I wanted to include in this blog post! But I had to narrow it down, and my [...]
