Stunning winners of Wedding Photographer Of The Year Awards
Happy couples, picturesque ceremony locations and celebratory reception parties have been captured in this year's Wedding Photographer of the Year Awards.
The International Wedding Photographer of the Year Awards 2021 have announced its winners and runners-up in a collection of heart-warming marital moments.
The competition began in 2017, and sees photographers from every corner of the globe compete to set the benchmark for exquisite wedding photography.
This year, over 1,500 images were submitted by 415 people from 58 countries all competing for the $20,000 grand prize.
This year, Fabio Mirulla from Tuscany won the grand prize for this deceptive photo of a woman getting dressed on her special day.
Fabio said, "I love shooting creative photos with everyday life objects, that can turn out to be the best props."
"Just looking at them with different eyes, those of a child that can never get enough of dreaming."
