The leading documentary wedding photographers in the world enter their best photos to the Wedding Photojournalist Association's photography competitions.

Winning these competitions is a true accomplishment for a wedding photographer.

  • This image has a striking sense of veracity. It feels real - as though we're in the room. We become a casual and familiar friend waiting for the wedding to begin. It feels as intimate as it is deliberate. The beautiful contrast of light and dark works well with the the posture of the man at left and the facial expression of the man on the right. It's a lovely image that is as seemingly simple as it is deceptively complex.
