Stacy Pearsall

I am an award winning photographer and got my start in the Air Force over ten years ago at the age of 17. I am one of only two women to win the NPPA Military Photographer of the Year competition, and the only woman to have won it twice! In the fall of 2004, I attended Syracuse University where I was presented with the Associated Collegiate Press Award. Since that time, much of my work has been highly publicized in various media to include Time Magazine, New York Times, CNN, Oscar nominated PBS: Operation Home Coming and GQ Magazine: This is Our War. Most notably, I was featured in the national magazine, Pink, where I shared my experiences as a female combat photojournalist. My quirky photo project titled "Birth Control Glasses" was featured at National Geographic’s Look Photo Exhibit 2007 and my portrayal of combat experiences in Iraq titled "Inside An Ambush" was highlighted in the NPPA Magazine that same year. Most recently, I took the NPPA Women in Photojournalism Competition’s top honors as Best In Show and placed in the Atlanta Photojournlism Contest. Also, my images from Iraq are currently being featured in an exhibits in Charleston, S.C. and L.A., California.
