2nd place in Portrait of Bridal Party
The WPJA contest judges presented Hooman Bahrani, a North Carolina, 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.

- Good moment, nice light and color.
- Another fun frame, loving that it does capture the bridal party but they aren’t posing. An interesting cultural story too with their traditional dresses in contrast to all being on their phones.
