I am super excited to have ranked in the top 20 for the International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers Fall 2011 contest!!!
The International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers is an organization of the best wedding photographers in the world. It was created by professional photographers to raise the standards of the wedding photography profession. (And I’m so proud to be a part of it!)
I was accepted to join the ISPWP earlier this year, and their recognition in this contest comes as quite an honor to me. With the points from all my winning photos, I ranked 16th overall- which is quite an honor considering the judges went through thousands of photos from all over the world! :)
I am SUPER excited that one of my photos from Abigail and Shai’s wedding was awarded first place in the humor category.
Here’s some more background information on the photo from Abigail and Shai’s blog post:
At the end of the ceremony outdoors, it started to rain. I captured a moment above with my 2 expensive cameras hung around my neck and the thought of drenched and ruined equipment in the back of my mind. When I saw the Grandfather with the chair on his head, I clicked the button as fast as I could. I snapped without much time to think about composition because I knew a moment like this can disappear in a second or that the Grandfather would notice me clicking and than I can miss this frame. That is for me the art of wedding photography as it permanently captures something that is so fleeting it would not otherwise be remembered or even observed.
