2nd place in Getting Ready

Wedding photographer Rob Sigler, was awarded 2nd place for photo 52076 in the Getting Ready category for the WPJA's 2006 Summer.

The WPJA contest judges presented Rob Sigler, 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.

2006 Summer Judges

Judges

  • The top several photos in this category were really good, making it hard to rank them. This photo rises for me because of its purity. The photographer saw a woman in full joy in preparation for a wedding. The photographer caught that joy with the right lens choice, the right moment, and by using a shallow depth of field to make sure that even the most dim-witted judge got the point. It worked.
