4th place in Reception
The WPJA contest judges presented Leon Wong, a China 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.
2015 Q2 Photography Contest Judges
Judges
- This was an image favorite of mine at first sight and a good example of the scene and the image generously sharing light and color in a blend of smooth composition. Photos like this become the moment before our eyes by transporting us to more than the obvious via a mix of scene and excellent “seeing” by the photographer.
