Hey there FashionPhotographyBlog.com readers,
We are really excited to announce that our friends over at Photo District News (PDN) are having a competition, called The Look and are open for entries right now!
The Look is PDN’s comprehensive competition for evocative fashion and beauty photography, with categories for professional photographers, such as still photographers and motion photographers, as well as for students of photography.
We are at FPBlog are excited for the next edition of the look and you should be too! I’m sharing this competition to you guys because we know that winning a prize like this could really help give you a boost to your photography existing career or help you start one.
3 Reasons why you should be excited about the Look Competition
Here are our top 3 reasons why we are excited about this competition:
1) The range of work. The Look includes many categories to enter in such as advertising, editorial, still life/accessories, personal work/fine art, runway/street scenes and beauty, plus a motion category for film and a debut/student category for rising stars.
The competition aims to cover all facets of the fashion industry. Last year’s winning work included a series of Chloé handbags shot for Barneys’ look books, a beauty series in Vogue Italia, and a film from a Valentino runway show.
2) The grand-prize package. With a $3,500 award to fund a photographer’s work, $500 for equipment at B & H, and a one-page profile in Photo District News, the grand-prize package provides the winner with an exceptional opportunity for growth.
3) Promoting the winners. All the winners of this competition will be published in PDN’s October issue this year. Online, The Look winners’ gallery always makes for a beautiful collection of work, and PDN are proud to showcase them! In addition to the print and online gallery, PDN organized an exhibition of the winners’ works at the PhotoPlus Expo at the Javits Center in October last year, which saw 22,000 visitors over the event. PDN will be looking for more opportunities like this to exhibit this year’s winners. You can take a look at last year’s winner gallery by clicking here –> The Look 2014 Winners
