Non-notable photographer, tagged as such for five years. His photos are interesting, have won some amateur prizes, and are on various websites. But aside from the three paragraphs in The New Yorker's Photo Booth blog (which describes him as an emerging photographer), there isn't significant coverage about him in independent, reliable, secondary sources. We have these requirements to ensure we can write a whole and balanced article that isn't promotional. At this point in his career we can't write such an article because he does not meet WP:GNG or any of the subject-specific criteria of WP:CREATIVE. Worldbruce (talk) 23:49, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete — This photographer has not received enough significant coverage to pass the notability guidelines. Qono (talk) 17:11, 8 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Article lacks enough sourcing to properly establish notability, and the article is so short, it is virtually a stub.TH1980 (talk) 03:56, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete, I think that we should have articles on established artists and leave those who are still emerging until they have a career and a body of work that we could say something meaningful about. Winning World Press Photo of the Year is one thing, but nominated for a World Press Photo masterclass and entering the Sony World Photography Awards competition isn't quite the same. Winning "Explore to Inspire" is certainly an accomplishment, but it's an amateur competition, and not a notable award. I think it's too soon for an encyclopedia article.
