Things I Learned Being A This is Reportage Judge by Philippe Swiggers
Excited to bring you a different special today: Philippe Swiggers was one of our judges for Collection Nine (the winners of which were revealed yesterday), and he was very kind to write down some of his thoughts, tips, advice – and things that he himself learned from the judging process. This really is an incredibly insightful piece; thank you so much for sharing, Philippe!
Collection Nine Winners Revealed!
It’s always so exciting when we can reveal the results of a Collection, and today is no exception, as we announce the absolutely brilliant winners of Collection Nine!
It’s incredibly difficult to get one of our Awards; they really do represent the very pinnacle of documentary wedding photography. In Collection Nine our five judges (who change for each round) awarded just the top 3% of individual captures (our Reportage Awards) and the top 5% of wedding Stories (our Story Awards; for a series of 15 – 20 images all taken at the same wedding).
This is Curtis Moore – Collection Nine Judge
Thrilled to reveal our fifth and final judge for Collection Nine: The brilliant Curtis Moore of Moore Photography! Hailing from Canada, and taking his creative wedding photography all over the world, we’re really excited to see what Curtis and our other four judges choose as winners soon… (Deadline for Collection Nine is just a couple of days away: Submit by 23:59 BST on 24th May 2019. Not yet a member? Apply over here and receive 60 Reportage Award entries and 18 Story Award entries per year).
This is Daniel Dumbrava – Collection Nine Judge
Excited to announce the fourth of our five judges for Collection Nine: The fantastic Daniel Dumbrava! Based in Romania and shooting the world over, it’s an honour to have Daniel casting his eyes over our Reportage Award and Story Award entries – deadline for submissions just a few days away (23:59 BST on 24th May 2019).
This is Now
Delighted to feature another round up of recent work by some of our This is Reportage photographers: This is Now!
It’s always so great to see what our members have been witnessing – and capturing – at weddings all over the world over the past few weeks, and we thoroughly enjoy sharing these moments with you. This month we’ve seen wayward bouquets, backflipping guests, shy flowergirls, emotional grooms (and brides, and fathers and mothers!), a Mariachi band, late guests, brides travelling by bike (with a dog too!), very careful cake-walking, sneaky drinks, first dances dressed as monkeys (!), and much, much more…
