The Wedding Photojournalist Association announced the results of the Second Quarter WPJA Photography Competition.

The 2013 Q2 Contest showcases the wedding photojournalism of WPJA members from the second quarter of the 2013 year in 10 categories, with over 11,000 entries in this contest.  Our winners come from 30 countries.

Every year WPJA hosts the largest wedding photography competitions in the world judged by panels of award-winning photojournalists. Competitions, which are held quarterly and open only to WPJA members, are part of the association’s commitment to upholding the highest standards in wedding photojournalism. Membership in WPJA requires rigorous standards in technical skill, aesthetics and best business practices.

I’m glad to share my two award winning photos from the Category Animals and Details (Found).

Congratulation to all the members with award winning entries!!

By the time I was shooting at my first wedding this year I couldn’t wait to come home and share some photos. It’s just a short preview of what is going to be a great photo story! Much more to come.. the wedding season 2013 is officially open!

“Hello Dragan,

Congratulations! We’re writing to you to offer you an invitation to join Best of Wedding Photography. As you know, BOWP is an invitation-only membership group for top wedding photographers with very high standards for membership.

We spent time looking over your site and we love your sense of style and your sense of fun – it infuses every one of your photo stories. We really enjoyed your coverage of Nadine and Mient’s wedding slideshow – those black and white images are stunning, and we are not surprised by your awards from WPJA. Overall, we love your bold, fresh, beautiful images that really capture the moments and the honesty of the events you document.

We hope that you will consider our invitation. You’re just the kind of photographer we’d love to see in the group, and we would be honoured to count you among our members.”

From today you can find my work on Best of Wedding Photography.
