Canon BP WPOY 2016-17: Top 15 in Photoseries on a Single Wedding Category

With the judging complete of the Canon Better Photography Wedding Photographer of the Year 2016-17 contest, we will be revealing the top 50 photographs that made it to each of the six categories—Bride and Groom Portraiture, Family and Friends, Emotions, Behind the Scenes or Offbeat, Finer Wedding Details or Still Life and Photoseries on a single Wedding. Let’s look first at the Photoseries on a Single Wedding category.

As much as weddings are about capturing the most important moments, it is also about weaving together those moments into a story. Whether it is following the bride and groom as they get ready for their special day, to the moment where they take their vows…

“I had a great experience judging the entries this year, as I felt they were much stronger. There is far more emphasis on storytelling and narrative which makes the images a joy to view. It is my hope that the younger generation of photographers, keep their aesthetic strong continue shooting such great photographs in the wedding sphere.”

—Hari Mahidhar, Veteran industrial and commercial photographer, Judge for Canon Better Photography Wedding Photographer of the Year 2016-17
