Any wedding photography award that doesn't feature D-Mac's famous
"Poison Wedding Cake" shot is a sham.

Can someone please explain why award winning images these days have to be so
unnaturally darkened/vignetted/saturated?

Sure they give added feeling and mood but in doing so look totally
unnatural.

Is the only way to win an award these days is to make your image look
morbid?

The only one that I say was all that was the advertising winner, and it's
obviously been post-processed to acheive a certain look that will kick out
as an advertisement.

I wouldn't call the rest "darkened" and even the advertising pic was more an
increase in conrtrast than an overall darkenng. The overall winner looks
saturated, but I think that's partially due to it being a studio shot - you
always get purer colours using strobes.
