WPPI 2010 ~ Kelvin
The Wedding and Portrait Photographers International is an international body that counts some of the very best photographers in the world as their members. Annually, they hold an Awards of Excellence 16×20 Print Competition. Past winners and participants include guys whose works I truly admire and get inspired by. People like Jesh De Rox, Jerry Ghionis and Yervant among many others!
These images are judged by a huge panel of highly-regarded photographers. Another thing to note is that this is a print and not an image contest. It’s a whole different ball game and we had to rely on working with highly regarded printers.
For this years contest, I have just received news that 14 of my prints have been awarded “Accolades of Excellence”. While none of them were placed in the top 3, getting these accolades are quite a recognition in itself for me, especially when you consider the mind boggling fact that over 3500 prints were submitted this year. I will blog more about it on the Lightedpixels blog cause it was quite dramatic how we got the prints to WPPI for the contest in time!
Meanwhile, here are the images that were awarded. =)
Kelvin, you have so many beautiful photos! If I was the WPPI’s judge, I would award the first place to all of them! 🙂
