1st place in Humor
The WPJA contest judges presented Mindy Myers, a Iowa, 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.

- I really like this picture. It is subtle but very funny. The bride is having her moment while the groom is getting his first does of reality. This is one a family could laugh about for years- a classic image.
