7th place in Ceremony
The WPJA contest judges presented Quin Cheung, a Alberta, Canada 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.
2006 Winter Judges
Judges
- Everything comes together here for a wonderful moment. The patriarchal figure's expression makes the whole picture really shine. I appreciate the photographer stepping back, waiting for that right moment, all the while keeping an eye on the details like the grooms hands, the brides' parents' expressions and the groom's smile. Great composition.
