6th place in Ceremony
The WPJA contest judges presented Agaton Strom, 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.
2009 Q2 Judges
Judges
- Nice moment composed with leading lines and good light. The couple is a touch soft however.
- All you can say with this one is AAAAH. The photographer obviously has gained the trust of his/her subject to be able to get this candid image on the way out of the church. Very intimate, very touching.
