Sean McInnis grew up in Louisville, Ky and found his love of photography in his high school photo class. Now a Visual Journalism and Photography major at Western Kentucky University, his passion for creating has only grown. Sean is always open to trying something new, and when not taking photos, he spends his time rock climbing, backpacking, and watching movies. Sean has received a silver medal in the 2020 National Scholastic Arts and Writing Awards for his work during the Breonna Taylor protests and most recently received an Award of Excellence in the 77th College Photographer of Year awards in the category of Sports Feature. Over the summer of 2023, Sean interned at the Charlotte Observer in Charlotte, NC on the visual staff.
