3rd place in Reception
The WPJA contest judges presented Francesco Survara, a Roma, Italy 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.
2013 Q4 Contest Judges
Judges
- This was just a classic reception image – nice moment, good reaction from the kid – it all came together to tell a little story. Good job!
- Classic moment that would have fit well into the Kids category. Great having action and reaction in the same frame. A little tighter framing (or cropping) would make it jump even more.
