The WPJA contest judges presented Di Bezi, a New Jersey, 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.

- This image has a unique and intriguing inclusion of elements. The animal pelt with its open mouth offers a stark and engaging contrast to the room's otherwise delicate mood. There's just enough separation between the pelt and the woman's feet. Also including just a hint of her arm serves the composition nicely.
