4th place in Action
The WPJA contest judges presented Jesse Chamberlin, a Georgia, 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.

- An unusual angle and framing for the bouquet toss. This was a photographer thinking about something other than the usual way to shoot this. It is a timeless shot. Also very graphic. The washed out look makes me feel the spiritual moment in this part of the ceremony.
