This year I was accepted into the Wedding Photojournalism Association (WPJA). I am so thrilled to present my name with other Northern California photographers in a professional organization composed of photojournalists and wedding photographers from around the world. They have a pretty stringent membership criteria and getting in isn’t easy, which is why I’m especially enthusiastic about being accepted as a member! To top that off, I’m so pleased to share that one of my images placed in the Q3 photography competition!

About the WPJA
EXCELLENCE IN WEDDING PHOTOJOURNALISM
Since 2002 the WPJA has been helping couples capture the story of their wedding.
The Wedding Photojournalist Association (WPJA) is a professional organization composed of photojournalists and wedding photographers from around the world. What sets our members apart in the industry is their candid, documentary approach – a distinctly artistic vision toward wedding photography.
The Wedding Photojournalist Association puts the world’s best wedding photography at your fingertips. We offer a new perspective on wedding photography – quietly capturing the real moments as they happen for the bride and groom. It is our goal to use photography to tell the story of your wedding day, not dictate it for you.
Your work deserves all the praise it gets, I haven’t seen one wedding where you failed to capture “that” emotion, either on the bride or groom’s faces or on the guests. Well done!
I’ve only started browsing your website today, but I’m completely unsurprised that you were able to meet their submission requirements and become a member, because your photos are amazing. The emotions and manner in which you preserve these memories is incredible, and as the other commenter said, you truly do deserve every possible praise that you get!
Congratulations, I love that image – so full of energy and character, I bet the couple were thrilled! Also, congratulations on being accepted into the WPJA, I’m not surprised – you have a really beautiful body of work!
