Congratulations Grand Jury Winner "Love Field" by Eddienguyen03

"This image had the biggest impact for me.  The kiss and the hands and the color pallet all scream romance and fantasy. The contrast of the red and the yellow flowers and then the muted sky supporting those brights colors is just beautiful.  I also love the shallow depth of field of the dress leading your eye into the couple.  It’s very well done.  There’s just a lot of warmth in this photograph." - Jerry Ghionis

Congratulations Amateur Winner "Light on! " by Denis09

Congratulations Runner Up "Nostalgic Memories" by keepingitneil

"There’s a beautiful mood to this portrait.  I particularly love the leading lines and I also love the repetition of the top hat of the groom with the hat of the chauffeur.  It has a very “Downton Abbey” feel to it, which I believe is what the creator was going for." - Jerry Ghionis

Congratulations Runner Up "Minimalism" by victorvertsner

"This is a beautiful high key portrait.  I particularly appreciate how it looks like it was done in studio when I’m sure it was all done on location.  It’s very contemporary and very fresh." - Jerry Ghionis

Congratulations Runner Up "Plein de tendresses" by slydeshaies

"There is such a beautiful expression from the groom when normally the bride is the main focus of a portrait.  The warmth in his face and his hands tell such a beautiful story. It’s very well captured." - Jerry Ghionis
