This Is How: ‘Mirrored Feelings’ by Marnix de Stigter
Fantastic to have the brilliant Marnix de Stigter on the site today, telling us all about how he captured his recent Reportage Award from our most recent Collection, Collection Seven. Really great tips on observation, patience, composition and more…thanks, Marnix!
This is Real Romance
It’s Valentine’s Day, that worldwide celebration of love, and we thought what a great opportunity it would be to show real, unposed captures of romance – no portraits, no set up situations, no photographers telling the couple how to behave or where to look – but real, natural moments of romantic love, captured by some of the world’s very best wedding photographers.
What follows is over 85 of our members showcasing the very best moments of romance from weddings all over the globe: Moments of passion between the bride and groom, first kisses, second-and-third-and-fourth kisses, stolen moments between guests ‘feeling the love’, old love, young love, moments where the emotions just become too much, love on the dancefloor, bum gropes (!), tenderness, joyous outbursts, and everything in between…
No poses; nothing staged: This is Real Romance.

This Is How: ‘Aren’t Nannas Just The Best’ by Karen Flower
Delighted to have Karen Flower on the site today, for our ‘This is How…’ series: World-class photographers telling us exactly how they got the shot. Here, Karen takes us behind the scenes of her Reportage Award from Collection Two; great insights into personal connections, empathy, and how building relationships and thus blending in enabled her to capture this great image. Thanks a lot, Karen!
Collection Seven Winners Announced!
Thrilled to announce the winners of our first Collection of 2019: Collection Seven.
Once again, it was incredibly tough to win an Award, with just the top 4% of individual frames becoming Reportage Awards, and the top 5% of Stories becoming Story Awards (for a series of 15 – 20 images (all documentary, of course!) from the same wedding).
