5th place in Reception
The WPJA contest judges presented Michael Lyn, a Florida, 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 colors and lighting on the subjects create a great mood for this image. The blurred background with the lights enhances the feel of the image. The only distraction for me is the merger between the subjects with the background lights.
