About the Juror
Brian Carlson
With passion, empathy, and a dash of humor Brian has been crafting stories through photography and film for over a decade. His work is honest and engaging and my extensive travel throughout the world has taught him how to interact with all kinds of people.
Brian’s wife and two boys are the pride and joy of his life. Nature, a good book, and time in my modest garden all give me rejuvenation. Small talk is alright but deep, meaningful conversation is where it’s at.

What is a Juried Show?
A juried exhibit is one where someone looks at a group of submissions and decides which will make it into the exhibit and which ones will not. The criteria for what makes it in is up to the juror. The juror may also suggest what size and format the submissions must be in for the final exhibition.
