Junebug Weddings has been hosting wedding photography contests since 2006. This year's Best of the Best Wedding Photo Contest brought in nearly 10,000 images from photographers around the world.
The top 50 images chosen by the Junebug team with the help of three photographer judges comprise the collection. Along with technical skills like lighting, technique, and composition, our judges looked for images that made us feel something. Photos that stopped us in our scroll because of their emotional impact or creative perspective. Photos that felt like a story.

Choosing the top 50 images from a pool of thousands is no easy feat. Judging requires a certain amount of subjectivity, and we understand that not every photo in our collections will appeal to every person. Some images will strike deep feelings within you and others won’t—these feelings change from person to person.

We try to make sure that our photo collections speak to more than just one audience and that they represent a wide spectrum of photographic styles, cultures, and love. Over the years, it’s become clear that the more diverse the submission pool is, the more diverse the final collection is. Because of this, we urge photographers everywhere to submit work that highlights diversity in subject matter and style.
