BEST OF WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY
Changing the face of the wedding photography industry
Dramatic compositions, unique brands, photographers with passion, positive people, creative minds and leaders: these are the kinds of photographers who create constructive change in our industry.
When you search your local area to find a photographer who inspires you, it challenges you to move in new directions. BOWP does just this: we seek out photographers who are on the move. We offer the most forward thinking photographers a place to hang, network and be discovered by contemporary brides with an eye for art.

WHO ARE WE?
We are the premier invitation-only association for the world’s top wedding photographers. Best of Wedding Photography employs a unique system of peer-review to ensure that membership standards remain uncommonly high. We look for photographers who are leaders in the field – both in terms of the quality and style of imagery they produce and their level of success and recognition by brides, fellow photographers, and others in the wedding industry.
A few times each year, our editorial staff submits a list of outstanding photographers to the BOWP Review Board, who then vote separately on whom to invite. This panel includes some of the best and best-known photographers in the world:
David Beckstead
Ben Chrisman
Matt Adcock & Sol Tamargo (Del Sol Photography)
Glen Johnson
Anna Kuperberg
Crash Taylor
David ZiserEvery invitation we issue represents a consensus among peers that a given photographer ranks among the best in the world.
In addition to representing the best photographers in the world, we offer an endless stream of incredible imagery on the Best of Wedding Photography blog, featuring the work of BOWP photographers – one blog with a snapshot of the most innovative photographic work being produced in the wedding photography world. It’s a beautiful thing.
FOR BRIDES
If you are a bride looking for outstanding wedding photography, you’ve come to the right place! Our members are the kind of people who regularly publish stunning images in the world’s best wedding magazines. They produce modern, artistic imagery that will make you and everyone around you say, “WOW.”
As you browse the photographers on our site, keep in mind that all of our members regularly travel within their own countries and overseas. Look for a photographer whose work and style you love, and don’t hesitate to contact them no matter where they’re located.
FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS
We’re always on the look out for top talent to bring into the group. We issue invitations for membership just a few times each year. The only way to be considered is to be nominated by one of our existing members. We submit a list of nominees to our board, who individually review and vote on each photographer. Any photographer who receives a majority yes vote is eligible to receive an invitation. If you are interested in becoming a member, we invite you contact one of our members and ask them to nominate you.
