The success of these four photographers secured Canada 3rd place (tied with team Spain) in the team competition: Silver, Commercial – Louis-Philippe Provost, Gatineau, QC Bronze, Commercial – Jacquie Matechuk, Cochrane, AB 6th Place, Portrait – Ammara Sadiq, Spruce Grove, AB 9th Place, Portrait – Stephanie Lachance, Chambly, QC Jacquie Matechuk was the first to bring home a medal, earning bronze with her capture of an empty downtown Calgary high-rise shot in a somber cloak of darkness during Covid.

I have never experienced a photographic competition anything like WPC Team Canada," shared a jubilant Matechuk.
