5th place in TTD - Water
The WPJA contest judges presented Jacek Wiesnowski, a 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
- The color of the light contrasting against the red draws us into this photo. Perhaps this photo would have scored higher if the background was cleaner. The pole and steps in the background slightly detract. We do love the line and shape of the couple against the backlight as if they were dancing.
