People's Choice
Grand Jury Winner

"I chose this photo as the winner for its unique mystical nature.  The photo evokes emotion at first sight.  The delicate kiss of light just gracing the bride’s blond hair almost appears as if her hair is an extension of the beautiful orange sky.  I love how the mountains and the sky blend together seamlessly in a blend of contrasting colors.  The pose is very simple, but you can feel their relationship in the subtle hints of light and the silhouette forms.  Beautiful composition!" - Roberto Valenzuela

Runner Up

"This photograph certainly resembles a moody painting of the bride and groom.  Absolutely stunning! The treatment on the couple compliments the overall mood of the photograph.  The couple is nicely posed and positioned in the frame." - Roberto Valenzuela

Runner Up

"This photo has a very nice deep moody feel to it.  The clothing plays well with the rest of the décor in that scene.  I really enjoy the how the pose brings energy towards each other by the way their heads are tilted and positioned." - Roberto Valenzuela

Runner Up

"This photo is very dramatic in nature! Absolutely love the composition and the photographer’s attention to detail.  The power of this image is in its simplicity.  It was very important that the photographer kept the horizon line parallel to the bottom of the frame.  I also appreciate the instant the horse was captured with its head down.  Just beautiful!" - Roberto Valenzuela
