2025 Story of The Year Finalists
The Story of the Year category has been part of the WUN Awards since the very first edition in 2017. The brief is simple: 25 images from a single wedding day that together tell a complete narrative. No single image carries it alone. The judges are looking for how the set works together, how one frame leads to the next, and whether the story holds from beginning to end.
It’s a category that rewards photographers who think beyond individual moments. The winning entries over the years have all shared something in common: you finish the sequence feeling like you were there.
Previous Winners:
- Bethine Elizabeth (2024)
- Ingrid Tjernström (2023)

- Everbay (2021)
- Deux drôles d’oiseaux (2019)
- Chloe Lapeyssonnie (2018)
- Angelica Braccini (2017)
The overall winner will be announced live on stage in Vienna on May 6th. For now, here are the three finalists whose work stood out from a community of entries to earn their place in Way Up North history.
