2nd place in Parents

Madrid wedding photography of the bride getting her veil put on as her parents watch nearby

Wedding photographer Virginia Gimeno, was awarded 2nd place for photo 1156976 in the Parents category for the WPJA's 2013 Q1 Contest.

The WPJA contest judges presented Virginia Gimeno, a Madrid, Spain 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.

  • Almost looks choreographed with the framed photo in the center of the frame but since this is a wedding photojournalist contest we know that isn't the case. This image was my top choice because I thought the image was not only well executed but the expression captured on the parents face tells it all. Well done.
