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

  • Beautiful scene that clearly captures the the glory of this amazing setting.
  • What a setting. This picture almost reminds you of a puzzle you’d put together -- a great rendition of a unique setting for a wedding reception.
  • Good thinking by the photographer to take this photograph from a distance to allow the structure and the landscape to speak for itself. The diffused, soft light helps to create a mood from another time.
