The YEARBOOK Awards are celebrating their 5th year with prizes from major industry organisations Alamy, Der Greif, FORMAT, Magnum Photos, Newspaper Club, and Shutter Hub Editions, accompanied by an online exhibition.
YEARBOOK is our annual awards for photographers – open to all, whatever stage they are at in their career. Participating photographers are promoted to people working within the creative industries and to those who commission photography. We reach out to editors and publishers to share work with them and introduce them to photographers they may not yet know about.
YEARBOOK has no theme, it’s all about sharing your best work, and promoting the future of photography. We’re asking for entries from all photographers, no matter your background or education. Enter images that stand alone to represent your style, skills and the work you’d like to do more of.
We’ll promote your work on our website, to our contacts, through our newsletter, and on social media, reaching tens of thousands of people who are interested in photography. Our Awards judges are looking for a wide variety of photographic work to support, giving opportunities for different genres and approaches.
We’re making this opportunity affordable for all photographers. There are no set entry fees, but we’re asking you to ‘pay what you can’, with a minimum donation of £10. Please help support the work we do by sharing this opportunity with other photographers too.
We receive no external grants or funding, but we’re determined to do what we can to keep photography open to all. In order to make this opportunity as accessible as possible for all photographers, we are offering a number of free image submissions to those experiencing difficult situations including homelessness, displacement, poverty and social injustices. To be considered, please send us an email before entering your submission, detailing why you should receive a free submission.
GET INVOLVED! Find out more and enter your images here.
Deadline: 10 July 2025 (5pm UK time)
