Wedding photographer Tina Wright, was awarded 2nd place for photo 94736 in the Cake Cutting category for the WPJA's 2008 Q4.

The WPJA contest judges presented Tina Wright, a Arizona, 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.

Judges

  • Weird, humorous, spooky and unusual lighting. I love the play of shadows on the wall. Nice moment, nicely lit.
  • Scary. The bride's expression and the harsh, directional light really make this image work. The mimicry of the shadows on the wall also add another dimension to this really different cake cutting picture.
  • Dramatic light and a moment set a menacing mood for this image. The twist of dramatic shadows and the bride’s frightened expression gave an unexpected take on the traditional cutting of the cake photograph.
