8 Years of This is Reportage: 2020 – Chelsea Cannar’s Reportage Award
Few years will ever be as instantly recognisable as 2020. The year weddings changed shape — smaller guest lists, postponed plans, face masks and hand sanitiser becoming part of the ritual. Yet, even through the strangeness and uncertainty, love found a way.
8 Years of This is Reportage: 2019 – Els Korsten’s Reportage Award
Every so often, an image arrives that makes you stop and look twice: Els Korsten’s (Netherlands) black-and-white Reportage Award from 2019 is exactly that.
8 Years of This is Reportage: 2018 – Pedro Vilela’s Story Award
When This is Reportage launched in late 2017, the goal was simple: to celebrate storytelling in its purest form. Not just one great moment, but the way a photographer sees and connects a whole day together. Few early Awards captured that spirit quite like Pedro Vilela’s (Portugal) — one of only three photographers to win a Story Award in our first Collection.
8 Years of This is Reportage
Eight years! It’s hard to believe that This is Reportage has been celebrating documentary wedding photography for that long.
What started as a small idea — to showcase and champion the power of real, unstaged moments — has grown into a worldwide community of storytellers.
Podcast Episode 143: This is Doc Day 2025
Excited to release the special Doc Day 2025 episode of the Podcast! I love how this has become a tradition, taking my travel mic to the unique documentary wedding photography conference that is Doc Day in Dublin. Every year is amazing, and 2025 was the best yet – tune in to hear me talk to speakers and attendees from all over the world, and hopefully you’ll get a great sense of the unique atmosphere; a real sense of togetherness, friendship, openness, learning and partying all in one. Doc Day truly is a special thing.
