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

  • My eye travels easily to the couple because of the terrific use of layer and light. The use of contrast is very effective.
  • Otherworldly. Opulent.
  • A beautiful moment, a beautiful light, a sense of mystery. A strong image.
