6th place in Bouquet/Garter (Action)
The WPJA contest judges presented Bob Fritz, a Pennsylvania, 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.
2013 Q4 Contest Judges
Judges
- The photographer was in the right place to get terrific expressions.
- This image could almost qualify as a sports action photo. It’s all here. The garter has just left the groom’s fingers, like a quarterback passing the ball, a basketball player going for a three pointer, a shot on goal whether hockey or soccer (football). All eyes are on the prize and within a fraction of a second the play will change from offense to defense and back again until one lone player makes the catch like a pro snagging an infield fly.
Wedding photographer Bob Fritz, was awarded 6th place for photo 1300621 in the Bouquet/Garter (Action) category for the WPJA's 2013 Q4 Contest.
