Based in Missouri, Grace Fieselman is a talented pet photographer known for her ability to freeze the quick, joyful moments of dogs in motion. She discovered photography in 2011 and found her true creative passion after bringing home her dog, Nala.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q1. Congratulations on winning in the MUSE Photography Awards! Can you share a little about yourself, what inspired you to pursue photography, and how has your journey evolved since your first shot?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you so much! My name is Grace. I\u2019m a 23-year-old pet photographer from Missouri, USA. As a kid, I always loved being creative, and I picked up photography back in 2011. In high school, in 2016, I took a photography class and became even more obsessed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fast forward to 2020, I got my first dog, Nala, and realized just how much I enjoyed photographing animals. From there, I started to take it much more seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q2. Can you share the story or inspiration behind your award-winning piece? How does winning this award make you feel about your journey in photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have always been drawn to capturing dogs in motion. There is something so neat about freezing that perfect moment that happens in less than a second of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winning this award makes me feel beyond incredible. It feels like all my time and hard work have finally paid off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q3. How do you decide which photo to submit for a competition?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I choose photos to submit based on what I feel has the most impact. It can be hard though, as some photos may have impact to me, but not anyone else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q4. What first made you pick up a camera?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2011, on a trip to San Francisco, my mom brought her Canon Rebel XTI. I had interest in using it, and I photographed everything that trip!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q5. What\u2019s your favorite type of photography, and why do you love it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
