As reported by hudsonreporter.com, in September Lisa won the prestigious International Media Award 2009 for the best still photograph of the year. The subject: a muddy Brian Sears.
“He’s our leading driver,” Lisa said about 'The White Knight.' “He’s the man down at the Meadowlands, so I knew the shot was good. But, I kind of had a feeling about that particular shot. It was exactly what I was looking for with that look on his face and that whole mood.”
