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.

Photographer's Comment

I was "circling" the bride and groom and happened to see the mothers of the bride and groom hugging and laughing; I shifted my focus to them to get the shot. I wanted to capture the joy that these ladies were feeling in watching their children embrace.
