We believe love is the most important feeling for human beings. Wedding photographers all over the world try to describe this feeling in joyful and original ways. Every couple is different, every couple is unique and so should be their wedding photos, right?
Every three months we run a contest to find the most outstanding images of love, couples and weddings. With the help of three talented professionals: Arno de Brujin (Holland), Blair DeLaubenfels (USA) and Xiang Wi (China), the best images have been selected from more than 1300.
Those images show that there is always space for creativity, fun, color and happiness in wedding photography. The authors are real artists crafting their best photos and giving to the couples timeless memories of their great day. Which one do you like best?

"Elegance On The Beach" By Claudio P
These compositions make me understand why hiring a good photographer is important.
Fotografos de Boda (FdB) was first founded in 2015 with the idea of empowering and promoting wedding photography as a form of expression. Photographer and a director of the FdB, Martino Buzzi, shared that the organization supports photographers who are not afraid of doing new things and experimenting in the field.
"We are working hard to be a connection between couples who are looking for special photos and the photographers who offer a unique work. In the near future, we see ourselves as a well-known and respected platform in the business helping hundreds of couples finding the perfect photographer for their special wedding."
"I Am Never Afraid When I Am With You" By Ismael Peña
"The Sun, The Sea And You. Nothing Else I Need" By Marco Helga
I love the way their dresses both blend into the scenery and stand out against it. Gorgeous.
Each time, the photos are examined individually by each of the three judges. They are looking for emotional impact, good or excellent use of light and composition, originality, a good or wonderful location or expression.
In this competition, we received more than 1300 individual pictures and 640 photographs in the reportage category, so almost 2000. There are around 100 photographers who participate throughout the year and collect awards in different contests.
"Look Out: Happiness Is Contagious" By Alberto Ramirez
"My Love Is Unstoppable" By Estelle Carlier
In comparison to five years ago, now there is a richer variety of styles. A much richer offer of different views. Photographers are getting more and more specific and personalized. Apart from “vintage”, “classic” and “modern” styles, now we can find experimental photographers breaking the traditional barriers. Showing unseen moments and characters. For example, we can now see many photographers doing special sessions before or after the wedding.
"Together We Can Go Wherever We Want" By Agustín Zurita
Love this! What a cool pick with this vintage Citroen. I wish I had the brain to come up with compositions such as this. Kudo’s to the photographer!
"Natural Love" By Pedro Álvarez
Apart from wonderful fashion style pictures, perfectly lightened and posed, nowadays there is a more direct and authentic style which is based on a photojournalistic idea. This kind of photography is very difficult because there is no control over what is going to happen and the photographer must be ready.
We are also trying to give importance to the full stories and not just single images. That's why we came up with the category "Wedding story". In this section, we display 20 collections of photographs taken on a single wedding day. You can see the photos here.

"So Much Beauty In The World" By Marco Helga
"It Is A Small World" By Roberto Abril
This one makes me think it took a lot of work, but the effect is stunning.
"The World Looks Upside Down When I Am With You" By Moana Wu
I want to know what they're holding. Beautiful couple in a beautiful setting, with a kid for comic relief =0]
"Never Forget Your Smile" By Nacho Bueno
"In The Ocean Or In The Sky, Just Want To Be With You" By Pedro Álvarez
"Life Is A Party, Just Dance" By Roberto Abril
"Standing In The Light" By Jose Manuel Taboada
My wedding photos look so boring by comparison...these are anything but.
"The Best Landscape Is With You" By Tamara Hevia
"Colours Are Sweet As Your Soul" By Alison Bounce
My dumb@ss thought it was some cool editing of the bride and didn’t realize they’re both the bride 🤦♀️
"Follow The Yellow Line" By Angel Blanco
"Natural Love, No Need To Hide" By Sergio Arnés
No offense but this honestly looks hilarious with the tan lines
They're both holding clothes, technically it *is* on their hands...

Only place you can hang this is the master bath.

This is my favorite of all of them. I have some nude photos my mom took of me and my 1st husband (I became a widow at 26 😔) and they're my favorite of all the newly married photos we had. There's just something about stripping away all the pretense and decor and baring your soul to someone (and the camera).
I love this one! If God had meant for us to be naked,we would have been born that way 😁
not a fan of this. It’s sorta weird to have hing up in your house, look at our pasty white bottoms.
This picture would have been more amazing if the white bums weren't so distracting. Their bums are, to make it worse, on a third line, so the whole focus of this picture is on their white bums. They should have gone under a tanning bed a couple of times without clothes or sit in the sun nude a few times. Otherwise cool and creative picture. But the photographer has a lot to learn. with white bums like that I would have at least tried with a different camera angle not to get those bums on a third line.
Why is it that I find young men’s butts so attractive and women’s butts so ugly?
This one is really funny - but not exactly the kind of wedding picture you send to your in-laws with the thank you card, is it?
Tattoo designs are horrible these days:)) That made this picture ugly...
On her right leg and glute? Those look more like birthmarks or bruises to me.

"You Are The Brightest Light In The Sky" By Ana Agua
"Colors Of Love" By Roberto Montorio
Interesting effect, but this one doesn't strike me as romantic. It took me a minute to see the couple, because I was distracted by what looks like fire inside a trailer!
"You Are The Light Of My Life" By Jose Cardona
I think this one is one of my favorites. I wish my wedding photos were this beautiful.
"I Feel As If I Am Floating Over The Roofs" By Raul Gori
"When I Am With You The Sky Is The Limit" By Marc Prades
"Here You Are, My Treasure" By Fran Ortiz
Very cool and beautiful pics, but....don't hate me here...they're a bit corny
I loved these photos... the beauty of the settings and the compositions made me happy. Thanks BP.
I wouldn't care about what an amazing picture it would turn it to be, but I'm not getting my wedding dress wet.
I agree, in my country at least, some of the pictures are taken on a separate day from The wedding, usually before, so the groom and bride have time to enjoy the celebrating, seems to be the case of some of the more elaborate shots

Where are the couples who have been married for decades? That is true love. I mean all of the people in these pictures are fantastic but true love stands through the test of time.
That last one was perfect 🤣 and I liked the yellow brick rd one. And the caravan one. They were more original. The motorbike one seemed best tbh.
Sorry, but I just do not like all those unnatural, artsy and photoshopped pictures, therefore, the two women in the forest were my absolute favourite!
It will surprise you that a lot of these can have been done without Photoshop. With the right lens, angle and lights you can get amazing artsy pictures without the use of Photoshop. As a photographer you just need to know exactly what you want and what you're doing. The only one that's clearly photoshopped is the couple in the clouds (24)

My wife has schizophrenia which worsened after my son was born. I never had an affair so can't say what real love feels like. Never experienced it.
Didn't you experience real love with your wife before your son was born??? I'm very sorry to hear about your wife and wish you (you, your wife and son) all the best. I hope you have help and a circle of family and friends to support you. Hugs Vishy.
