The WPJA contest judges presented Patrick Low, a Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 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.

- What a great off guard detail. I am sure that the person wearing the shoe would simply die if he was aware of his rear view. The photographer took advantage of this unique situation and made a prizewinning photograph. Not a first prize, but a third prize in my book. Leaving the man's legs in on the right side, shows that the moment was part of the wedding day and part of the wedding day story.
