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

- This is the perfect moment of putting on the dress. Although we don't see their faces, we know how special that moment and the gestures of the bride's hands and the woman give the sense of movement, tension and anticipation of this crucial moment for the bride. The composition and use of light, the white and windows adds to create a beautiful yet simple image.
