2nd place in Getting Ready
The WPJA contest judges presented Laura Piazza, a New Hampshire, 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.
2005 Fall Judges
Judges
- Nice composition. Good use of the arms and dress to frame the moment in the mirror. The angle on this picture was nice. The patient bride while people fuss about her. I would have like to have seen the bridesmaids face on the right. Minor but would have liked it.
