1st place in Great Natural Light
The WPJA contest judges presented Virginia Gimeno, a Madrid, Spain 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.

- This is a great image, the composition, the use of the light, to both focus your attention and then redirect it. Fabulous moment.
- The image is a raw, beautiful moment, but the composition is a bit busy. Still great to see a combination of great light and a nice moment.
