How the system works now
Since 2015 we've recognized the world's best wedding photographers. Today Wedisson is a permanent lifetime recognition system
No seasons. No resets.
Each selected photo earns lifetime points and moves you forward.
The Recognition System
Points System
Starting September 2026, this is one of the biggest updates to the platform: a points system built to make judging even fairer and more transparent. Every selected photo earns +1, +2, or +3 points based on quality, and points never reset. Stronger work earns more points, so photographers who consistently deliver exceptional images rise faster — both in the annual top ranking and in their overall tier, from Newcomer to Diamond.
Career Levels
The tier progression system is now clearer and more accessible than before, with two new levels — Newcomer and Diamond. Advance from Newcomer → Member → Bronze → Silver → Gold → Platinum → Diamond.
Badges & Achievements
A transparent editorial recognition system based on clear, visible criteria.
Certificates & Milestones
Receive digital or printed certificates as you move through levels (upcoming)
Annual Awards
Compete separately each year for Photographer of the Year, Top 10, Top 5, Top 3.
Visible Progress
Your profile acts as a professional record of your level, points, and achievements.
Your journey is now visible, measurable, and celebrated every step of the way.
