5th place in Ceremony
The WPJA contest judges presented W. Scott Chester, a Georgia, 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.

- This was one of those moments that stood out. A gift for the photographer and for the bride. Great spontaneity captured by the photographer. Not the most unique image in my “"top 10"†but the one that summed up the ceremony best.
