1st place in Architecture
The WPJA contest judges presented Matt Adcock, a Quintana Roo, Mexico 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.

- Really nice over view of the brides decent from the stairs. The photo evokes a feeling of Paris or Rome in the 1950s. Good work by the photographer to spot the moment and compose and shoot of the fly. I might suggest cropping a little off the top to bring it down to the edge of the railing and crop a little from the right to clean up the area in the middle right.
