5th place in Reflections
The WPJA contest judges presented Mary Schroeder, a Oregon, 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.

- Very nice reflection and I love the way the lips are seen but not the face above the lips.
- This photo is one of my favorite of the whole contest. Beautiful, edgy, poetic. Love it.
