WPJA


WOOHOO! I am so thrilled to be accepted into the Wedding Photojournalism Association. It was one my goals for myself as they are very demanding on their requirements for admission. It means so much to me to be accepted :). You have to follow the high restrictions of true photojournalism. We have always told our clients that we unobtrusively cover their wedding day and this is our confirmation for them :). We are one of Tampa Bay's only in the association.
