CODE OF ETHICS: The Elopement Photography Awards maintains a high level of ethical practices. Our code of ethics is not only an essential factor for the success and credibility of our contests; it reflects our values and ideals as elopement photographers. The purpose of the Elopement Photography Awards is to celebrate photographers who use technically excellent photography to capture unique and storytelling candid moments at elopements with 15 or fewer guests, not including the couple, officiant, celebrant, and members of the photo/video team. Therefore all elopement photography images submitted in the Legend Awards must be taken in legal areas that are not off-limits, using Leave No Trace principles, and are true representations of microweddings / elopements with 15 or fewer guests.
By entering the Legend Awards, each entrant expressly agrees to these terms, and agrees to hold harmless the Elopement Photography Awards and Lucy Schultz free from any claims, including negligence or misrepresentation, including but not limited to the processing of entries, the quality of the published images, errors that may have occurred in the administration of the contest, or any condition that may cause the contest to be disrupted, ended or terminated. All submissions are subject to the discretion of the judges and organizers, and may be removed if we do not feel they support the spirit of the competition.
