The Court of Honor is awarded to the highest scoring print in the blue ribbon category. This was my first time entering the PPARI competition. Thanks PPARI!!

The suspense has been killing me since WPPI but I finally found out today that I actually won first place (Romance category) in the Best of Weddings international competition sponsored by Eventpix & WPPI. The judging was held last week at the WPPI (Wedding & Portrait Photographers International convention in Las Vegas.

I really love this image..and this couple! We created so many wonderful images from that day. Special thanks to Anna & Sebastien for allowing me to be a part of their special day.


As a category winner, I win the following

- Complete Set of Kubota Image Tools Photoshop® Actions

Not bad! Thank you Eventpix & WPPI!!
