Juniors and their dates walked the red carpet on May 12. The Big Red’s tradition of the prom photo contest includes students submitting photos using the hashtag in a variety of categories: Best Candid, Best Corsage, Next Cover of Vogue, Best Group, Best Caption, Cutest Couple, and Best Red Carpet photo.

The Ultimate winner is Best Prom Photo, which has the prize of a Dunkin’ Gift Card. In order to win Best Prom Photo, staff votes on one that not only captures the essence of prom and also has beautiful lighting, focus on the subject matter, and stunning composition. Any juniors who are on staff and attended the prom were not part of the judging for the contest, but were involved in the layout of this gallery.
