Best 100 Fearless Awards of 2023

This picture captured a really fast moment when my assistant informed me that the groom was talking with his grandparents who could not be present at the event. A thought came to my mind: this could get emotional or not, and indeed it did. As I was seated on a chair, I had to crouch down a bit to capture his face. I saw him trying to wipe his tear, and that's when I approached closer. The reflection in the photo only became apparent when I edited it. I had to bring it out more to shed light on the moment and increase the emotion conveyed.
