3rd place in Group/Bridal Party
The WPJA contest judges presented Florent Vidal, a New South Wales, Australia 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
- This just cracks me up, a perfect moment on each and every subject in this endearing and timeless moment. The bridesmaids are not even at the ceremony yet but they are already crying. This photo captures a sweet moment between the women and the bride that seems to be outside the frame. This photo gives the viewer so much to look at yet allows you to wonder what just happened and what they are looking at. Very emotional moment captured. Tight shot adds to the emotional depth of image
