9th place in Musicians & DJs
The WPJA contest judges presented Tony Marin, a Victoria, 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.

- What a chaotic looking scene this was as a musician plays amidst the dust of whatever is happening in the background. And that's what made me like this photo - I didn't need to know what was happening in order to enjoy its moment. Photography can add a beautiful narrative to any moment aptly made in sync with a genuine moment.
