And last but definitely not least, the results are in, and we couldn’t be more excited to share our 2026 Portrait Magic Contest Winners, showcasing the very best in portraits, from posed group portraits with perfect lighting to unscripted and authentic portraits of couples, brides, grooms, and more.
Today, we are sharing the last group of ten winning images shown in order:
1. Car and Mel
2. Coscarella Photo
3. M.E. Photo & Films
4. Mischa Baettig
5. Sally Carpenter Photography
6. Oliver Holder Photography
7. Deanna Johnson Photography
8. Andrea Lewis - Amative Creative
9. Breanna Pretz - Photography by Brea
10. Adventure & Vow
Chosen from more than 2,000 submissions, these award-winning portraits stood out not only for their artistry and creativity but for the way each photographer brought their own vision to a moment that their couple will remember forever. Each image reflects the photographer’s distinctive point of view while creating a beautifully crafted portrait of the couple and a lasting piece of art. Each photograph showcases and elevates our industry and is exactly the kind of work we love to celebrate at World’s Best Wedding Photos.
While the artistry behind these photographs is remarkable, what matters most is the meaning they hold for the couples and families in them. These are memories they’ll carry with them for years to come, while also inspiring photographers around the world to see and capture moments in new ways.
