Just try to not smile when you look at this picture. I dare you.
Best Bridal Portrait:

Technically not a bride but a model for a bridal gown company. However, I had all of 10 minutes to take this shot so it was just like a busy wedding day as far as having to think fast and work quickly.
However, if you want to be picky about it, I would have to pick this as my favorite actual bride portrait. I know it's not full-length. I know she's standing in a hall and not a church. I know it's not in front of a beautiful sunset. But she just looks so happy and vibrant.

You would think it was a foul ball at The World Series...

This category is for shots that require props or special clothes. This is my favorite and one of the most complimented images from the year.

This couple got married in front of a huge white curtain. Not my first choice of backgrounds but it does make it possible to do something like this.
Best Shot of Booray with Bride:

I try to get someone to take my picture with every bride I photograph. I never know how the shot will turn out but this one came out great!
Well, that's it! I left out a lot of great pictures but this list was starting to feel like it would never end.!
