Best Wedding Photo of 2009 Submissions--Photographers with over 3 years experience

<p>Submissions are being accepted for the Best Wedding Photo of 2009 Contest. This category is for photographers with over 3 years experience. Please be sure you have the right submission thread. Submissions will end at midnight on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, Eastern Time, USA.</p>

<p>For this contest, we ask that your image be 500 pixels in width (not 700 as normal), less than 100 Kbytes, and only 1 image per photographer will be accepted. Please add a caption, but we ask that no other comments or technical data be submitted. Images that show in the thread as links will be removed, and you will be asked to re-submit.</p>

<p>There will be 3 categories of judging--Artistic, Technical and Impact. Please see the announcement thread nearby for further explanation. The judges are Nadine Ohara, William W., and Neil van Niekerk.</p>

<p>There will be 3 placements--first, second and third. The first place winner will receive a Featured Photographer spot on photo.net sometime during the year. </p>

<p><strong>Spirit of Competition</strong></p>

<p>Let's keep it on the lighter side. I encourage you to enter your favorite wedding photo from 2009 in the spirit of sharing and recognizing all of the wonderful wedding images taken by members of the photo.net community over the last year. Judging the merits of photographs is, by nature, highly subjective. While we will pick winners, remember that you 'win' every time you create wedding photos for your clients, who have placed their confidence in <strong>you</strong> to produce their once-in-a-lifetime memories.</p>

<p>While I would never put this at the top for technical appreciation, I love the composition of the brides face with the absolute resolve of the maid of honor to jump 2 feet in the air to get those flowers!<img src="http://www.danielmcgarrityphotography.com/photocart/photos/webimages/jess_erik0778.jpg" alt="" /></p>
