“{Tampa,FL} – January 23, 2012 – WeddingWire, the nation’s leading wedding Marketplace, is excited to announce Life Writing Photography has been selected to receive the prestigious WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards™ 2012 for Photography!

The esteemed annual awards program recognizes the top local wedding vendors from the WeddingWire Network who demonstrate excellence in quality, service, responsiveness and professionalism within the wedding industry. While many industry awards are selected by the organization, Life Writing Photography was selected based on its stellar reviews from past newlywed clients.

Life Writing Photography is recognized as part of the top five percent of wedding professionals in the WeddingWire local vendor community, comprised of over 200,000 wedding professionals throughout the United States and Canada. The Bride’s Choice Award recognizes the best local wedding vendors across 20 service categories, from wedding venues to wedding photographers, based on their overall professional achievements throughout the past year.

“WeddingWire is thrilled to honor the success of the top-rated wedding professionals within the WeddingWire Community,” said Timothy Chi, CEO, WeddingWire. “Since the launch of the Bride’s Choice Awards™ program four years ago, thousands of outstanding wedding professionals have been recognized by the bridal community for their supreme service and dedication to the wedding industry. It is with great pleasure that we congratulate Life Writing Photography for their continued professionalism and commitment to enriching the wedding planning experience for engaged couples.”

We are happy to announce that Life Writing Photography is one of the very best Photographers within the WeddingWire Network, which includes leading wedding planning sites WeddingWire, Project Wedding, Brides.com, Martha Stewart Weddings, and Weddingbee. We would like to thank our past clients for taking the time to review our business on WeddingWire. Thanks to their positive feedback we were able to receive the WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards™ for 2012.

How are the winners determined?
The WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards ™ recognizes the top local wedding professionals from the WeddingWire Network that demonstrate excellence in quality, service, responsiveness and professionalism. Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the organization, the WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards™ are awarded solely based on the reviews from over 1.2 million newlyweds. Awards are determined by a combination of four factors: Overall rating (quality), total number of reviews (quantity), review performance from 2011 (recency), and consistency of reviews from year to year (consistency). This year’s recipients represent the top 5% of WeddingWire’s vendor community, across all service categories and all regions throughout the US and Canada.”

As stated above, the award is given to the top 5% of Wedding Wire vendors based on reviews from their wedding clients. Thus, I have to THANK each of my 2011 brides who took the time to write raving reviews!! I LOVED working with each and every one of you and cannot thank you enough for the opportunity to photograph your wedding day. You are what makes Life Writing Photography what it is!!

2011 brides – each of you are uniquely gorgeous! Here’s your shout out:

The following bride {Stacey} you have not gotten to see yet . . . her April 2011 wedding will be published soon . . . we are waiting for a surprise, but here is a glimpse:

PS… If you have ever had photos taken by me and have never written a review (it does not matter how long ago your shoot was), please consider doing so. It takes 5 minutes and tremendously helps Life Writing Photography (plus, I give a free 5×7 for each review, so it is so worth it!)

Here are directions for where to post:

……….~ If you were a NON-WEDDING client (family, engagement, senior portrait session): (1 review, 1 post) Google Places Page

………..~ If you were a WEDDING client: (write 1 review and post to 2 places) Google Places Page and Wedding Wire Page.

Again – THANK YOU to ALL of you who took the time to write a review.
