9th place in Ceremony
The WPJA contest judges presented Minnow Park, a New York, 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.

Photographer's Comment
This moment was right after the groom kissed the bride. He got carried away in the moment and quickly realized that his family was watching. He's saying sorry to his parents for the "inappropriateness."
