13th place in Toasting
The WPJA contest judges presented Tanya Rosen-Jones, a Ohio, 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.

Photographer's Comment
This was the best man's toast. I wanted to capture the beautiful light coming in through the windows and the warm feeling in the room. The father of the groom held his glass up and I knew this was the moment.
