We are very excited that we are publishing our second annual LYBELL Magazine 2025 “Best Of” Awards issue!
The magazine features photographs that were published in previous 2025 issues, but were selected as the best photos taken in their perspective countries. Photos could be nominated for a country if they were published by LYBELL Magazine in 2025 and the original submission specifically stated the country where the photo was taken in. We also had nominations for the overall best photo that was published (which was chosen as the cover), the best of Boudoir (featured as the back cover), and of Ohio* (the state we are located in within the United States).
We compiled all the nominations in files for their countries and brought in an independent committee from Columbus, Ohio, to select the best from each country and for the boudoir selection! We are very fortunate that the sales of our 2025 issues were put toward creating this amazing issue!
Independent Selection Committee: Chris Hall @black_hound_photo, Christine Rodriguez @christinearodriguez, Cornelio Soto @corny.jpeg, Dysheen Davis @3dm_photography, Elena Cadle @ecad8125, Katherine White @beautifate, Nathan Martin @natesography, Randi Munnerlyn @randim.photos, Ryleigh Buckingham @buckinghamlikethepalace
