Photos wanted for Vicksburg Living

Published 4:00 pm Friday, August 16, 2024

The smell of fall is in the air! At least it is in Hobby Lobby. And just like the retail store, we at The Vicksburg Post are preparing for the season.

We are currently hard at work on the September/October issue of the Vicksburg Living magazine. As part of the preparation for each issue, we reach out to the community and invite all to be part of the magazine by sharing photos, which are then published in the submitted section of each issue. This is always a fun aspect of our local magazine, because it allows us to highlight anyone who decides to contribute. Sometimes these photos even wind up on the cover, like in our last issue.

A theme for the submitted photos is always chosen and in keeping with the fall season, this issue’s theme is Halloween. Therefore, we are inviting readers to send us a favorite photo of children, adults and if it is really, really cute, pets dressed in costume.

Terri Frazier was born in Cleveland. Shortly afterward, the family moved to Vicksburg. She is a part-time reporter at The Vicksburg Post and is the editor of the Vicksburg Living Magazine, which has been awarded First Place by the Mississippi Press Association.

Terri graduated from Warren Central High School and Mississippi State University where she received a bachelor’s degree in communications with an emphasis in public relations.

Prior to coming to work at The Post a little more than 10 years ago, she did some freelancing at the Jackson Free Press. But for most of her life, she enjoyed being a full-time stay at home mom.

“From staying informed with local governmental issues to hearing the stories of its people, a hometown newspaper is vital to a community. I have felt privileged to be part of a dedicated team at The Post throughout my tenure and hope that with theirs and with local support, I will be able to continue to grow and hone in on my skills as I help share the stories in Vicksburg. When asked what I like most about my job, my answer is always ‘the people.’
