6th place in Creative Portraits
The WPJA contest judges presented Genya Garrett, a Georgia, 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.

- I went back and forth on this one and finally decided that I liked it alot. Great shot. and the red against the clouds just works. I also don't know exactly how the photographer did it and I like that. There's a mystery to this shot and if I were the bride I would love this shot.
