Recently I was accepted as a member into the Wedding Photojournalists Association (WPJA) http://www.wpja.com/. The WPJA only allows photographers who strive to produce a documentary and story-telling approach to covering weddings, rather than the more traditional posed style of wedding photography.
I entered the above image from Maritza and Julio's wedding earlier this year (see the April posts in the archive) into the most recent WPJA contest, and was fortunate enough to be awarded 14th place in the "receptions" category. I know it doesn't sound like much, but some of the most well known wedding photographers in the world are members of WPJA, and it's pretty cool to see your work displayed next to theirs. Now I have to figure out a way to place higher than 14th in the next contest!
