Recent Awards - And More Recognition!
Well, it's been a while since I posted, but we have some big news to make up for it! After the new year Sherri and I flew to Tampa for a couple of photography conventions and the ImagingUSA trade show. While we were there the winners of the DWF Photo of the Year contest were announced and I'm happy to say that the two images I submitted both placed! :)
The DWF is a professional wedding and portrait photographers' organization that has members from all over the world, including nine of American Photography Magazine's and Popular Photography Magazine's top ten wedding photographers in the world! There were some really, really impressive entries and I'm just over the moon to have drawn two third places in the two categories I entered (couples and people). It's like two Olympic bronze medals!
Another thing that was super cool was that two of the photography companies at the trade show had told me that they really like our images and would like to use some to display their products at the show. Plus, the finalists in the DWF contest had their images displayed around the convention area. So everywhere I went there were our photos. It was my little moment of fame. :)
You wanna see pics? Of course you do! :) Here are our two winning entries (next year I'll enter Sherri's pics as well):
