Earl Christie Photography » Boston Wedding Photographer, Earl Christie.

I was away for the past few days without a good internet connection and I saw that the winners for the Wedding Photojournalist Association’s (WPJA) Q4 2009 Contest had been announced. It was killing me to not be able to check out the results and when I finally got back to boston, it was the first thing I checked out.

I’m proud that one of my favorite photos from the past year placed fourth in the Wedding Details category. I’m especially happy that one of the judges commented on the moment-driven nature of the shot, which is what really makes it for me. Earlier this year, this image placed in the Top 10 in the First Dance category of contest by the International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers (ISPWP).

I’m really happy I said yes when fellow ShootStyle member and Maine Wedding Photographer Andree Kehn asked if I wanted to help her out with this wedding!

This is the news that I’ve been building up to over the past couple of days. I’m just thrilled beyond belief to be able to announce that my album “Lake George Wedding” was presented with the Court of Honor Award for being the highest scoring album in the Professional Photographers of Massachusetts 2010 Print competition.

Wow!

In competition, an album is judged both on the artistry and technical proficiency of the individual images it contains, as well as how well those images combine to give the viewer a feeling for the way the day unfolded, and the personalities and relationships of the participants. That’s why I’m especially proud when my albums do well in competition, because I pride myself in telling a story with my images.

Thank you to Kelly and Nick for inviting me to share their beautiful day with them.

Best Wedding Album in Massachusetts 2010

As I mentioned in my last post, this past weekend, the Professional Photographers of Massachusetts held their annual convention and print competition. I’m a happy to announce that my album “Our Fantabulous Wedding” won the Fuji Masterpiece Award in the album competition. This is the second year in a row that the Fuji Masterpiece Award was presented to one of my albums.  Big thanks to Maine Wedding Photographer Andree Kehn who helped me shoot this wedding, and to Suzanne and Rick for being such a fun-loving couple.
