6th place in Portrait of Bridal Party
The WPJA contest judges presented Kamil Saliba, a Czech Republic 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 really like the location the photographer chose to make this image. The bridal party of bridesmaids looks as comfortable in this setting as a woodland fairy. That ethereal landscape would feel at home in any Disney fantasy-scape. Good composition weighed just the right amount of forest without loss of facial detail.
