Extremely honored to be named a winner this week by the “Association of International Boudoir Photographers in the ‘Fine Art’ category.

Here’s what the judge said: “It was a really hard decision to pick between two artists, I had to think further about what fine art means to me. Its meaningfulness and the ability to communicate beyond an images beauty. Therefore I choose Cliff Ingram, for showcasing firstly the beauty of a woman’s body but also that we all come with scars and that we should not hide them.”

The scars under each breast are from a titanium rod put in place when she was nine when her sternum was reconstructed. She says they are a part of her and she really doesn’t think about them much.
