The WPJA contest judges presented Laetitia Patezour, a Wisconsin, 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.

Details are very important. They are the time keepers of your day. This picture of the wedding dress, has been captured at the very elegant Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee.
