BRIDES MAGAZINE & the Wedding Photojournalist Association proudly present a Wedding Photojournalism Contest.

The WPJA/BRIDES Wedding Photojournalism Contest spotlights the finest images from the best wedding photojournalists on the pages of one of the most world-renowned wedding publications and the web sites of the WPJA and BRIDES.

For most brides and grooms, wedding photojournalism is no longer a trendy alternative to traditional wedding day photo-coverage; rather, it is mainstream wedding photography. The WPJA has been leading the way in promoting and rewarding photographers who excel in capturing the un-styled and un-scripted moments of the wedding day. More and more couples are seeking out the top wedding photojournalists in the world through the WPJA web site.

May 16th, 17th & 18th, 2008: Sponsored by the WPJA, the three-day VII Seminar in New York City was held at the Klitgord Auditorium of the NYC Technical College. VII put on presentations by each of their 11 photographers, a few of their new Network photographers, sponsors and special guests. They organized a panel discussion on "Photojournalism within the context of Contemporary Photography". They also hosted exclusive VII Seminar evening events in the new VII DUMBO space on 28 Jay Street.
