Before I talk about anything, I have to start off by apologizing to all of our really awesome and loyal blog readers. We have not published any posts on our blog in a little while and to be honest it has really been weighing on us. We usually post far more often than this. We have been sooo busy (not that we are complaining) but we are making time right now to share something with all of you that we are very proud of.
It has long been a goal of ours to enter some national and international photography competitions. We aren’t as concerned at the outcome of the competitions as we are about actually entering. As a photographer, it is a very valunerable thing to put your work out there in the sole purpose of being judged by your peers. By doing this, we feel that it is one way that we continually learn and continually improve on our work. This way we can be better and better for all of our clients.
So that being said, I am so excited to share with you that one of my images was selected as a finalist in the Best of Weddings Competition. We will know if it makes it higher while we are out at the WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) Conference in a few weeks. This image that was selected made it as a finalist in the Wedding Humor category, and hopefully you can see why. It is one of those images that makes me laugh every time. Here is the image:
I also have to give a shout-out to another great CT photographer, Sam Chinigo who also is a finalist in this competition. Congratulations Sam!
Kathleen and I also entered 11 of our prints into the WPPI 16×20 competition which we will also know how we placed while we are out in Vegas in a few weeks. Keep your fingers crossed :). We will keep you posted.
Hope everyone is having a great week!!
