9th place in Ceremony
The WPJA contest judges presented Simon Grosset, a East Lothian, United Kingdom 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.
2010 Q3 Judges
Judges
- Here's a photo that rests in the confidence of a moment. Moments are the life blood of great photojournalism. They don't require a great deal of technical fuss other than abiding by the "laws" of basic photography. However, they do ask us to be sensitive and aware. They ask us to notice. Simply said, this image is a wonderful moment "noticed."
