Wedding photographer Eric Sucar, was awarded 5th place for photo 1462181 in the Reception category for the WPJA's 2014 Q3 Photography Contest.

The WPJA contest judges presented Eric Sucar, a New Jersey, 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.

The elderly woman at right symbolically represents that passage (although I am in no way suggesting that she is extinguishing.) As the couple exits one room they enter a far greater "room" outside, with community, friends and family that marks their path together as one.
