Week 25 Photo Challenge: “Wedding Bells”

Button - Wedding


Photo Entries - “Wedding Bells” Category
Week 25 Theme - "Wedding Bells"

This challenge is now closed- please browse through the entries and check back Saturday for Jasmine's top picks!


If you'd like to know how to set up your entry correctly, you can check out our entries here:
Angie - The Arthur Clan

Amy - Living Locurto



This week's photo challenge is a bit different...there is only one category for our "Wedding Bells" theme. Your photo needs to have at least one face in it, but it doesn't matter if it is a child, adult or a combination of both. Please just make sure that your post has only one wedding themed photo in it and that's it (you can change your post if needed up until Tuesday night.) Jasmine Star will be picking her favorite photos from this category.

To be considered as a top entry this week, please make sure that you follow our guidelines.


Thank you for your comment love each week. We absolutely love hearing from you...it's your encouragement that keeps us going from week to week! :)

My photo was taken at the one (and only) wedding I've shot so far. Shooting the wedding photos made me so nervous, but what fun it was as well to be involved in their special day.

Can't wait to see all of your entries this week too!

Brad said...

Mine was shot at my favorite wedding, ever.. Josh and Amanda.. they were so in love and so playful with the camera.

Life with Kaishon said...

I can't wait to see some beautiful wedding pictures. Isn't love so exciting : )?

Erica Kree said...

I'm so excited to see everyones images! I love wedding pictures :)

Brad said...

I wish I had time to go through them all.. if anyone sees this and wants me to come visit their entry or blog, I'd be happy to... just drop me a line here or on twitter @txheadshots

Heather Ann Photography said...

Hmmm, I accidentally pasted the wrong URL in my first entry. Is there a way to delete that one? It's currently number 30, it links to 'sepia' instead!

Jenna Cole said...

Thrilled with the theme this week! I love clicking through what everyone else is putting up and seeing the range of emotions. Thanks again for this fantastic site!

Snow Photo said...

I love wedding pictures. :) Everyone looks so gorgeous and delighted!

Devan Whitson said...

This is my first time entering. Love the whole idea behind this site!

Lisa Webb said...

fun to do something a little different!

Michelle KK said...

So sorry for that double entry :( It didn't link to the comment enabled one for the first one. So sorry!

Heather said...

Is it horrible that at the most recent wedding I went to, all I could think about was, "I gotta get a good picture for I Heart Faces!"? : ) Too bad I didn't know the bride OR groom that well - I didn't want to be a random paparazzi in their face. But hopefully my bridesmaid shot will do!

And thanks for the "Just for Fun" category!

Lolli said...

Angie--I feel the same way! Weddings make me nervous, but they are so fun to participate in! Being in the middle of the festivities is a great feeling.

Jo said...

This is a fun and stressful category all at the same time! I am getting knots in my stomach just posting this! LOL! Just call it Wedding Photographer PSTD!!

Holli True said...

Good luck everyone! :) I haven't ever participiated in I ♥ Faces before- it's so fun!! As a Wedding Photographer, don't you all feel that we have the best job ever??

metaphase said...

I took this at the only wedding I've been to in the last like 6 years! It was in January and I'd just gotten my Nikon for Christmas, so I know it's not that great of a shot..Sometimes I get discouraged when I see how great other people's photos are and then how much mine is, well, lacking. I figure there only one way to get better, though, and that's to practice! (or get photoshop-LOL!):)

Christine (Artemis Clover Photo) said...

awesome! just found your site and will definitely be entering!

Live.Love. Photography said...

New to your site! Just entered! Good luck to everyone! Love all the images!

Patty said...

This is a great theme this week! I had a hard time choosing! :)

Nix Pix said...

Enter one of my favorite shots from the last wedding I shot a few weeks ago. B&W and a touch of grain added with some nice emotion from the couple.

Mag Mom said...

Mine is called the Cake Face pic :) My fav from the entire day!

Holly Steen said...

Thrilled to be a part of this contest!! I heart it! Thank you so much for having such an awesome idea and guest judge like, Miss Star.

All the best!

Marion said...

How fun this week is!-Just like every week :D I only wish there was an amateur and professional categories-I feel so inadequate when I look at some of these pictures! Such talent there is! It sure gives me something to strive for!

Jasen Master said...

HAHA! Love this contest and LOVE that J. Star is judging!

Jessica said...

Yay! Nothing like weddings to really make it feel like summer is here! Wedding photography is a new thing for me, and I am so excited for this weeks theme! Best of luck!

Diandra Ann said...

My first photo contest ever! Can't wait to see the results!

Deyla Huss said...

First time contest entry! Woot woot! How fun!

Teresa said...

What fun...who doesn't love wedding pictures??!! I'm loving seeing the great photos! Thanks so much for a fun week ahead!

Sarah Austin Photography said...

My shot was at the wedding of my friends Matt and Lindsay. We stuck onto the stairs at the Disney Concert Hall and I grabbed this shot while she was laughing at her new hubby.

AmberBaker said...

My first time entering, but I couldn't resist with such a fun theme and J Star judging!

Alisa Greig said...

This is also my first time entering, a regular Jasmine Star blog reader, I came across your great site--awesome!

Kelly said...

Angie or Amy....

I messed up! How do I undo the link and then repost the right picture?

I'm #170 Kelly Ferreira.

Sorry! Help?

Anonymous said...

Woo-Hoo for picture contests!

Mollie said...

#186&187
I'm an idiot...I accidently posted the wrong thing on #186. #187 is correct...sorry!

jamiemichaelsphotography said...

Woo hoo Wedding Week! Jasmine, I love your work. Thanks for the recent FAQ blog series. Looking forward to seeing all the great wedding work!

Lauren said...

My photo comes from a wedding where I wasn't the official shooter, but I still love the priceless expression of the bride as her groom tries to clean cake off her shoulder and cheek!

Leah Lund said...

Had to submit this one...it's just too cute.

Leah said...

First time shooting a wedding (my dh usually does it), first time entering the I heart faces comp. Yes, I'm hella nervous but pretty pictures make me smile. Technically you can't really see the faces in my photo, but that's only because the bridge and groom heart each others faces, lol. Loving all the other wedding images :)

Leah said...

ha ha ha, bridge and groom! Clearly I meant bride and groom ;)

Fola said...

Cant wait to see the results...

Joy said...

Entered! Love your work, Jasmine!!

MamaBear said...

I am guilty of thinking at the wedding "Oh! This would be a good one for I Heart Faces!"

That particular image ended up fitting the "just for fun" category better though and when I saw the photograph of the bride looking into her husband's eyes, it trumped the flower girl photo in an instant.

I SHOULD be going to bed but I'm going to 'treat' myself with some time looking through this week's entries. :)

laura-dolcepics said...

I'm no. 250! Whoa... lots of images to look at. How do you do it?

Brittney Hale Photography said...

sorry it took me a couple trys to get my permalink right- im not very tech. savvy!! best of luck to everyone!!

maria said...

what a fun site! looking forward to seeing the contest winner.

John Liddle said...

Fun contest! I took this photo just a few weeks ago as a 2nd shooter. My wife let me use the 100mm for most of the time so I got some fun close-ups.

Bita said...

Oh yay! This is so much fun. Glad to have found this site. :D

xox

Missesprincess said...

I am not a professional wedding photographer ~ but shot my sister's wedding for her as a favor...I think the stress of doing that every weekend would be so intense ~ my hat goes off to all who do it :)

Jessica said...

I am so glad I found this site! I love faces and their emotions =) I hope you all enjoy this photo even half as much as I enjoyed taking it.
xoxo

ELisa said...

Great site... I squishy heart Jasmine Star!!!

TandemFoto said...

Sharon said...

What a beautiful Theme, and SOOO many fantastic shots! (glad I don't have to judge)
As we are on the road and I don't have my 'library' with me, I had to choose from one already on my computer. That narrowed it down for me, but it was still so hard to choose!
Thanks for so much enjoyment every week. Even f I don't have time to always enter a photo, I LOVE having a quick, selfish moment of browsing through everyone else's entries!

amy said...

Angela said...

So my blog is having problems for some reason. Blogspot links it using http://angelaliddle.blogspot.com/2009/06/i-faces.html

For some reason I can only get to it now if I add www to the front of the URL:

http://www.angelaliddle.blogspot.com/2009/06/i-faces.html

I'll try to get it fixed, but that's why I added the second link as #324.

Belly Monster's Mama said...

Ok, I'm not happy! I posted my link before 9pm central, saw it in the list, was able to click on it and everything, and now it's not there???

What happened???

Ashmommy said...

this was a fun one b/c i got to make use of pictures i took at my friends wedding. Good Luck everyone

Sharon said...

I just had to post an extra comment here today. Having checked out Jasmine Star's blog the other day, her writing and witty way with words had me hooked. I read, read and read some more, then checked out her website. This girl is truly inspiring! For those of you not been there yet, go check it out, you will not be sorry!

way outnumbered said...

The inspiration from looking at all the photos this week is overwhelming! I've only photographed one wedding and was scared to death. Now that I've seen all these great ideas I'm dying to do another one!

ohana photographers said...

oooo fun!! love the sound of this category!

Photographer : Holly Steen said...

So excited about I heart faces! Is the winning photo being posted here? I think all of the photographers are so amazing and out of all 323 images, it must be hard to pick a favorite!
