9th place in Bouquet/Garter (Action)
The WPJA contest judges presented Fides Fierz-Scheifele, a Zurich, Switzerland 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.

- This is a difficult category because there is always so much going on and it seems difficult to get it all in one shot. The photographer did a good job of capturing all the elements and people in one shot. Very well done.
