The WPJA contest judges presented Andrea Dapueto, a 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.

  • This is a photograph of two groups of people. The wedding party and the people looking at the wedding party. And then there are those people in the upper left corner making sure the frame has no unused corners. Nice. The easy, elegant mood of the bridal groups' faces contrasts with the odd faces and body postures of the people at left. And we, the shadowy onlookers, get to try to make sense of it. Handled well technically, and the print is beautifully rendered.
