The WPJA contest judges presented Beth Keiser, a 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.

Judges

  • The photographer has caught this great moment with deeply heartfelt expressions and has also chosen to leave the people in the background who seem to be really appreciating the moment while respecting their privacy. The foreground image is really strong just by itself—the hands and heads completing a circle. But the background is just out of focus enough to let you linger on the foreground image without distraction and then go back to the background to appreciate that layer also.
