Christina is a new member of the International Wedding Photojournalists Association and a few of her images placed in the organization's annual contest for 2007! There were thousands of entries from all over the world, and submissions are judged by high-profile photojournalists from international news organizations, so she was pretty pleased with her placements. Many thanks to our awesome clients for providing so much inspiration.
4th Place - Kids Being Kids JUDGES COMMENTS:It feels like I'm looking at two separate pictures that happen to be in the same frame.
8th Place - Transportation JUDGES COMMENTS:I loved this picture, it says so much about the journey of marriage. Very symbolic. Beautiful light, wonderful composition. Took me worlds away from the cliches.
12th Place JUDGES COMMENTS: This is a very refreshing photo. The photographer stepped outside the traditional banquet hall setting to capture the wedding party hitting golf balls into the ocean. I wish there were more photos like this one.
13th Place Food & Drinks JUDGES COMMENTS: This one is included on expression, purely. Notice the mimicking of the gesture with open mouths around the frame. Funny, and a well collected frame with faces forming the boundaries of the principle action, and drawing attention to it and complementing it.
18th Place Humour JUDGES COMMENTS: A great reaction from the flower girl and her escort. Priceless expression. Did they kiss? You want to know and can only imagine.
