The WPJA contest judges presented Brett Butterstein, a California, 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.
2007 Q3 Judges
Judges
- Funny and unexpected moment. What can I say? It is a joke my 7 year old would like but it works at any age. A wedding is the most planned event with lots of expectations and anticipation of perfection. The embarrassing moments that happen anyway are humbling and give us a break from the seriousness of it all.
