The categories for the Summer 2008 WedComp competition are Getting Ready, Ceremony, Portrait and Reception. Getting Ready: Funny, intense, touching, joyous. You name it. Some of the strongest images from a wedding come from these preparations. Impress the judges with your ability to pull that definitive moment from the hectic environment that is Getting Ready. This category is for any images leading up to the processional that is not a portrait. Ceremony: Getting unique images that transcend the formality and rigidity of a wedding ceremony means being on your toes at all times. Great shots present themselves and disappear in an instant. This category is for any images from the processional to recessional that is not a portrait. Portrait: Rarely is there much time to get amazing portraits on the wedding day. Great wedding day portraits have to happen quickly, and very often, on the fly with changing conditions and unique challenges. The resourceful photographer will get amazing portraits in any situation, and those images should tell the viewer a little something about the couple. Creativity is key. Go crazy. This category is for any images that are portraits, be they a single person all the way through an entire wedding party. Reception: Receptions can be best described as controlled chaos punctuated with periods of quiet stagnation. You're either in a race against time or you're watching the clock crawl along. A photographer will shine with their ability to make good use of any of these situations and pull amazing images out of those unexpected, uncontrolled moments. This category is for any image from after the recessional to the formal exit so long as the shot is not a portrait. One overall winning image will be chosen by the judges from one of the 1st place category winners. That top image will receive the following in addition to their category prizes. Clickbooq Site: The winning image will receive a Clickbooq annual subscription with annual hosting, a $798 value. Kubota Image Tools: The winning image will receive a Kubota Action 5 Pack, a $669 value. Cash Award: The winning image will also receive a cash award of $1000USD.
