6th place in Reception
The WPJA contest judges presented Tyler Vance, a Louisiana, 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.

- She caught it! Bully for her! She probably has no idea what the tradition means when catching the bouquet (and I'm pleased to think she doesn't) but congrats to the photographer for a mirthful moment at a wedding that clearly was informal enough to allow all unwed girls, instead of just eligible women, to participate in this time-honored tradition.
