“BestofWeddingPhotography”
In the post ” Top 350 Wedding Photographers in the World“, I talked about a new organization that had been formed. We received this email a few months ago. The website looks great and we can’t wait to see what happens, it looks like a great resource for brides. Especially those looking for a high caliber wedding photographer for a destination wedding. Congratulations to the other Colorado Photographers on the list Autumn Burke Photography, Otto Schulze, Grant Oakes, Kern-Photo.
Andy and Angie Wood,
Hello. Im the Executive Director of Best of Wedding Photography, a new invitation-only membership group being launched by some of the leading wedding photographers in the world. Im writing to offer your studio an invitation to become a founding member of the organization. You’ve achieved that terrific combination of great branding around A&A Photography and fresh, modern imagery that distinguishes the best work in the field today. We would be honored to count you as members.
This invitation comes after a very rigorous review process by our Board, which includes some of the best wedding photographers in the world: David Beckstead, Ben Chrisman, Del Sol Photography (Matt Adcock and Sol Tamargo), Glen Johnson, Anna Kuperberg, Crash Taylor, and David Ziser. Our board has personally reviewed your work, decided that you rank among the best in the world, and voted to offer you this invitation.
We started with a highly-screened list of nearly 5,000 photographers. Of those, we are now inviting just 350 photographers from around the world. You will become part of a new group that has the potential to dramatically change the face of the wedding photography industry.
I’ve included details about Best of Wedding Photography and the invitation below (also attached as a PDF for your convenience).
Please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions.
Thanks and best wishes,
Here is what the new website says about us
WHO ARE WE?
We are the premier invitation-only association for the world’s top wedding photographers. Best of Wedding Photography employs a unique system of peer-review to ensure that membership standards remain uncommonly high. We look for photographers who are leaders in the field – both in terms of the quality and style of imagery they produce and their level of success and recognition by brides, fellow photographers, and others in the wedding industry.
A few times each year, our editorial staff submits a list of outstanding photographers to the BOWP Review Board, who then vote separately on whom to invite. This panel includes some of the best and best-known photographers in the world:
David Beckstead
Ben Chrisman
Matt Adcock & Sol Tamargo (Del Sol Photography)
Glen Johnson
Anna Kuperberg
Crash Taylor
David Ziser
Every invitation we issue represents a consensus among peers that a given photographer ranks among the best in the world.
In addition to representing the best photographers in the world, we offer an endless stream of incredible imagery on the Best of Wedding Photography blog, featuring the work of BOWP photographers – one blog with a snapshot of the most innovative photographic work being produced in the wedding photography world. It’s be a beautiful thing.
I am working on this engagement session and thought this portrait was pretty cool. We don’t show many engagement portraits on our blog because, we have a hard time just keeping all the weddings we shoot on here. We still have 26 weddings to get on the blog. I really liked the leading lines and the moody light, I think they work really well for this portrait. If you are looking for a photographer in denver colorado that does engagement portraits, you can inquire through our contact page. Engagement sessions are fun, and they are a great way for us to get to know you.

Here are the some of the beautiful detail shots from the eastern Colorado wedding of Mark and Angela. Lots of beautiful color and textures to work with at this wedding. Lets not forget some of the cool light.
The bouquet in Angelas fathers old truck. The bouquet was customized with one of his old red grease rags and rosary. Very cool
Angelas red wedding shoes. Andy and I love color changing up the shoe color sure can be a lot of fun
