Winner's Circle Photos: 3rd Annual Indie Soap Awards

Immediately following the 3rd Annual Indie Soap Awards ceremony on February 21 at New World Stages in New York, the award winners and attendees had an opportunity to hang out in the "Winner's Circle" and take photos with their award statues, network with other shows and catch up with old (and new) friends. Here are the official We Love Soaps Winner's Circle photos from our photographer for the event, Gustavo Monroy. We start with the biggest winner of the night, RAGGED ISLE's Barry Dodd, posing above with WE LOVE SOAPS TV's Roger Newcomb and Damon L. Jacobs and The SFN's Stewart St. John and Todd Fisher.
