7th place in ENHANCED (The Ceremony)
The WPJA contest judges presented Juan Carlos Torres, a Oregon, 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.

- The big moment is beautifully captured is this image. The eye is perfectly drawn to the couple. The only thing that I feel should have been done to make it better is to level the contents. The downward shift to the left draws the eye away from the subject. The otherwise perfect symmetry is diminished by this.
