So this year is the first year I’ve decided to enter a print competition and I need your help picking which images to enter into the WPPI print competition. The deadline for entry is 2/12 so I need to pick pretty soon and get these printed and entered. So please help me out by voting for your two favorite images.
Make sure to tell your family and friends to vote too.

I know the thumbnails are kind of small.
Yeah! Good luck!
whoo hoo good luck!!
always good work good luck! you’ll totally win!
That is an amazing shot!!!
One of the photojournalistic shots. The judges love that stuff. The others are wonderful, but they’ve seen that before. You just can’t recreate real, heartfelt moments. Crying’s always good, but the hugging bride one is pretty great.
Very nice! Hard to choose.
You are an AWESOME photographer and know just when to snap a winning photo. Your style is uncomparable. Good luck
Hard to pick favorites… I love the all; 1 is classic Izatt and number 6 is just so cool.
Hey D,
Something to keep in mind of when you go to print the photos you decided on. One thing that you do a lot of is push the contrast which results in some loss of the highlights. While that is sweet for your clients, judges tend to hit pretty hard for it. You need to find that fine line of high contrast and tons of details in the highlights and shadows.
The other thing you may want to remember is that they hit these prints with 2 – 250 watt lights at 45% degree angles so if they are close to blown out in the highlights just looking at them with normal lighting, then with the actual judges lights they will be washed.
I actually voted for 1 and 2 because to me they have the most impact and story telling in them.
Good luck!
Brody
