3rd place in Reception
The WPJA contest judges presented David Murray, a Georgia, United States wedding photographer, with this Master Piece Award as recognition for top wedding photojournalism in the industry.
The leading documentary wedding photographers in the world enter their best photos to the Wedding Photojournalist Association's photography competitions. They want their wedding reportage photographs to be evaluated and selected by some of the most notable and respected working picture editors and photojournalists in the news industry (these are not wedding photographers or other WPJA members judging their work). Winning these competitions is a true accomplishment for a wedding photographer.
2003 Winter Judges
Judges
- Different way of seeing a photo that could be a cliché. The faces on the back of the car along with the raised arm tells the whole story. Liked the timeless image of the car driving away - and the hand sticking out gave it the needed human touch. A fun well-anticipated moment.
