Wedding photographer Samo Rovan, was awarded 4th place for photo 1656066 in the Musicians & DJs category for the WPJA's 2015 Q2 Photography Contest.

The WPJA contest judges presented Samo Rovan, a Slovenia 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.

  • As I studied this delightful image, I tried to imagine this jaunty DJ’s music, which, apparently left these party goers well, shall we say… less than inspired. But regardless of his party mix, he has certainly found an approving audience within the confines of this photo! The irony, of course, is that we know him only as the guy in the background rather than the guy with that dapper hat spinning his "A for effort" background tunes.
