Allison Grim, Farmer Advocate for Conservation
Ann Brandt: featured for series about women in agriculture. “Ann with farm animals” this photo conveys not only emotion, that being the care considered for farm animals, but also demonstrates interaction on the farm between farmer and livestock.
Mike Weirling: “At grain elevator”
Denver Davis: “Looking at cereal rye” golden hour, yes! Foreground, yes! Emotion, yes! Space for text overlay, yes!, rule of 3rds, yes!
Jason Meyer: Farmer advocate for conservation. “Jason in corn field” photographed from below using corn stalks to frame Jason. Cornstalk’s foreground, Jason Middle Ground, sky background. Subject not looking directly at camera creates intimacy/emotion. Negative space allows copy/text to be overlaid
Todd Hesterman: “working on combine” I chose this photo to demonstrate my effort to find a unique angle while Todd made a repair to the combine. Communication was a key factor to capturing this image knowing where I was allowed to position myself and not being in the way of Todd’s work, also being sensitive to Todd’s schedule. Todd had shared how just one day prior to photo shoot his combine caught fire
