"Best Wedding Photograph of 2021" Contest

Photographers, WeddingDay simply could not do what we do without you! That's why we choose to celebrate the end of each year by showcasing a handful of the incredible moments captured by talented Midwest photographers in our annual photography contest! We love to celebrate all stages of love, and that's why this year, we're accepting submissions in two categories: real weddings and engagement sessions. 

All submissions must be entered by filling out the contest form below and uploading a photo (limit one photo per category per photographer) by Tuesday, December 14th at 11:59 p.m. (EST). On Wednesday, December 15th, all submissions will be uploaded to two albums on our Facebook page (one per category) and the voting begins! We will urge our nearly 23,000 fans to vote for their favorites. This is also the perfect opportunity to interact with your own fans as you encourage them to vote for your photo(s) until Wednesday, December 22nd at 3:00 pm (EST)–when we will announce the winners! 

The two winning photos (as voted by the public) will appear in our 2022 print Look Book, which will give your photography business free exposure to brides all over the Midwest (throughout the entire year of 2022!). We're also excited to announce that we will be selecting two Editors' Picks (one photo from each category, as voted on by the WeddingDay staff) that will also appear in our Look Book as well!
