6th place in Portrait of Bride AND Groom
The WPJA contest judges presented Gabriel Harber, a California, 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.

Judges
- I’m a sucker for wallpaper as a backdrop but I’m an even greater sucker for a lovely moment. When you combine the moment with that delightfully gaudy background, and mix it with those mottled cyan transfigurations cast upon the window at right, I’m all in. Toss in some lovely lighting and inventive composition to assure a spot as a winner.
