1st place in Weather
The WPJA contest judges presented Aht Yomyai, a Thailand 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.

- I love the way the shallow DOF in this image merges with the monochromatic plants; making this image looks like a painting.
- A lovely image of a couple looking like they made the best of the rain. Their body language and matching footsteps make it extra special.
