1st place in Transportation
The WPJA contest judges presented Aht Yomyai, a Thailand 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.

Judges
- A graphically pleasing photo with the intrigue of the exotic. Nicely shot.
- Not the normal transportation. Reflection makes it more unique.
- What do you say when you come upon an image as simplistically gorgeous as this? A strong image often paralyzes my thoughts into a state of awe. Itʼs perfection.
