4th place in Ceremony
The WPJA contest judges presented Greg Brown, a Iowa, 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.

Judges
- Very sweet triangle of sentiment. Makes the viewer feel wrapped in the embrace. OK, there are lots of hugs and kisses at weddings, but this touching moment shows a little boy who can't wait to get in on the action. The photographer shows great awareness and compositional skills here. Great range of emotion. The intensity of the groom is the same in the boy.
