5th place in Dancing (Action)
The WPJA contest judges presented Jonathan Moore, a California, 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.
2013 Q1 Contest Judges
Judges
- For each image in this contest I have kept in mind that we are judging wedding photos that need to fit the sub-category they are listed in. It is important that each image contains key information to be considered. This image hits the nail on the head. What a stroke of luck to capture this moment. Doesn't someone fall dancing at every wedding?! It is so perfectly shot that it almost looks staged. Great job.
