4th place in Action
The WPJA contest judges presented Wendy Woods, a Minnesota, 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.

- Now this is action! Very nice light, nice moment and framing. The sun in the background isn't overpowering - instead it enhances what is going on in the foreground. The long shadow caused by the adult in the picture helps to bring your eye back into the center of the frame. There are a lot of good things happening in this picture
