3rd place in Kids (Being Kids)
The WPJA contest judges presented Fabio Azanha, a Portugal 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 like the little girl leaning out of the pew to be able to see what is going on up at the altar. She's trying to be discreet, but she really wants to see what is happening up there. I like the way the pillars with flowers lead your eye up the aisle to where the couple is standing.
