2nd place in Humor
The WPJA contest judges presented Natalie Galyon, a 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.
2004 Spring Judges
Judges
- Younger brother keeps the bride from telling. A nice, candid moment by alert photographer. All about the faces. A candid moment caught honestly and it makes you laugh. This could have been a kids being kids winner as well. Great unexpected moment. Great expression on the bride's face. Little kids say the most incredible things, but in this case, actions spoke louder than words. What a geniunely innocent moment! The surprise on the bride's face and the innocence of the little guy plays well together.
