10th place in Getting Ready
The WPJA contest judges presented Francesco De Tito, a Italy 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 photo in the car/reflection genre shows a beautiful communication caught in the eyes of the bride and whom the viewer assumes is her father. Whoever the man is, there is a sense of joy and warmth that everyone hopes will be a cornerstone of a wedding and a marriage. Nice moment.
