4th place in The Cake
The WPJA contest judges presented Deborah Elizabeth Watt, a 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.

Judges
- COMMENTS: Affectionate gesture, feels personal and warm. A simple, quiet photo. The image is sweet but makes you wonder how she ended up with cake on her elbow. The composition is very simple so you concentrate on the exchange between the subjects. Not vulgar, like smashing cake, but a silly, intimate moment.
