I just got home from another gruelling but absolutely satisfying wedding day shoot for Sean and Sheree. I shall blog about that when I get a chance to look through the images in the next couple of days.
There was a pleasant surprise in the mail today. I managed to pick up 2 awards at the WPJA’s Q4 competition. Amazingly, both were from Kevin and Cynthia’s (thanks guys!) wedding shot in December last year! I still maintain that it was one of my best shoots ever. Although some of the images that I had submitted and kind of had high hopes for (like one of the images from Isaac and Melissa’s wedding) didn’t get placed, I’m still thoroughly estatic – especially since I’ve *finally* managed to get a 2nd placing in the Toasting category(heh!).
That said, a competition win is just that – being at the right place at the right time and with the right judge. There are obviously tons of other very talented photographers who don’t get their images placed (or even submit them at all…). In any case, I’m going to savour this for a while. It’s been a long day!
