Winning these competitions is a true accomplishment for a wedding photographer.

  • The juxtaposition of the light and shadow of all these hands and the timing of the photograph so gracefully framing the bride or bridesmaid (it's not clear) sets this image apart from the rest. Great composition makes this a work of art. Well done!!
