16th place in Kids (Being Kids)
The WPJA contest judges presented Britta Trygstad, a North Dakota, 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.

- Love the spontaneity of this image with the two girls that are really enjoying themselves. Great stopped action with one of the girl's ponytails flowing in the air. Nice that both girls are wearing similar dresses.
