Welcome to the Michael Freas Photography Image of the Year Contest! I am thrilled to have you onboard. I have handpicked one standout photograph from each wedding I had the honor of participating in in 2023. Now, you, our incredible audience, can vote for your all-time favorite photograph from the selection below. Exciting rewards await our winners!
Want to know how to cast your vote? It’s a piece of cake! Here’s the step-by-step guide:
First place: An Anniversary Session. You heard right! We’re gifting a whole photoshoot to a lucky couple to celebrate their wedding anniversary in style. It’s a chance to revisit the magic, embrace the changes the year brought, and create incredible memories together. It doesn’t even have to be your actual anniversary!
Second place: A $100 Gift Card to Your Print Store. Fancy a 24 × 36 canvas of any image from your gallery? This is your chance to add a touch of personal charm to your abode or gift it to loved ones.
Third place: A $50 Gift Card to Your Print Store. Choose your favorite prints from your online wedding gallery!
Get sharing! The more people participating in the contest, the better your chances. Share on Facebook, send those emails, and remember to promote it on Instagram. Our most successful couples are those who get their friends involved
