2020 Micro-Grant Winner: Warren Frey
About Warren:
I’m a firefighter in Tasmania, Australia. Our job here is varied, no matter what the task I aim to photograph our experiences how we see it. The rest of the time I can be found at the beach.
Grant Category: Photography
International Winner: Tasmania, Australia
Project Title: Women of Fire
Project Vision:
My aim is to capture women firefighters as an essential part of the team; not heroic, not special, no greater, no less working – As equals in a challenging environment. I hope women will be able to look at these images and see themselves, working in a team where they can belong and be inspired to pursue an exciting career.

Favorite thing about firefighting:
Taking pictures of focused and motivated people doing good in Tasmania’s amazing environment and then going for a swim in the sea on the very same day.
