10th place in Reception
The WPJA contest judges presented Erin Chrisman, a South Carolina, 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.

- I just thought this was a funny frame captured. Not one that the bride will probably frame, but will get a laugh out of. It is important to watch how others react in a photo- it often helps us tell our stories better. Good job by the photographer seeing this scene play out.
