4th place in Humor
The WPJA contest judges presented Todd Hougas, a 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
- Why? I keep wondering why. Very funny with Ronald McDonald staring at the camera and the guy with the mop staring at the bride who has her dress hitched up as she leaves the bathroom. Another photo where the humor is all in the moment. It felt very real and very natural – a slice of the wedding day that makes this wedding special.
