Bre & Ed earn a 9th place award from the AGWPJA

Neil December 6th, 2006

Take a look at the Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association to see photoshop manipulated images from the most recent contest.

Bre and Ed shared a kiss to help put this shot together:

And the judges awarded us a 9th place in the Engagement Portrait Category. Sorry I didn’t do better guys, you’re always first place with me! What do you think of the shot? They were a little disgusted by the pumpkin guts

I guess this is as good a time as any to introduce my thought process and Photoshop technique for all the photographers, and amaters reading.

Hey Neil,

I just love the treatments you’ve been applying to a select # of your images, and I’m honestly shocked at the placing of some of the photographs in that section. I thought that #’s 6-9 could easily have been ranked 1-4 in no particular order.

That is the problem with artistic images, I suppose. It’s so very subjective and at the mercy of the judging panel.

Keep up the good work though. I love what you have been doing.
