3rd place in Getting Ready
The WPJA contest judges presented Susan Stripling, a Florida, 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.
2004 Winter Judges
Judges
- Hilarious. Priceless moment of getting ready, sure putting on deodorant is necessary but you don't expect to see a bride already made up having someone apply it to her. Great part of the photographer staying with every moment. It clearly paid off.
