Exciting News: KMR Awarded two gold awards from Graphis
I was informed a few weeks back that Graphis, the leading design and commercial art publisher, has selected two of my images to be included in the “Graphis 2009 Photography Annual“. I was also awarded two Graphis Gold Awards along with the inclusion in the book and one of the images will be used as the cover of the annual. (While I have seen the cover layout, I will not share it until it is in print.)
From the Graphis Website:
Graphis serves as a platform for outstanding work in Design, Advertising and Photography. To further honor these industries’ professionals, we introduce the Graphis Platinum and Gold Awards. Beginning in 2009, all entrants whose work is included in a Graphis Annual will earn one of our new Gold Awards, and a carefully selected few will earn a new Platinum Award for excellence.
I’m honored to be included in this publication with a group of top photographers from some of the most influential publications in the world. Thank you to the outstanding team that was involved in the creation of these images.
