Enter food photographs across more than 25 categories, from growing and harvesting to cooking and celebration. Amateur and professional photographers can submit work in any style, with finalist images exhibited in London.
The World Food Photography Awards celebrate exceptional food photography from around the world, with more than 25 categories covering every kind of food story: growing and harvesting, cooking and eating, celebration and survival. The competition is open to both professional and amateur photographers, and entrants can submit work that uses any style or subject as long as it tells a strong visual story.
Entries are submitted through a free account on the awards website, with photographs uploaded once and then entered into the most suitable categories. There are free categories available, as well as paid entry options, and the competition also includes a dedicated youth prize for under-18 entrants.
Finalist images are exhibited in London and winners are revealed at the awards evening, while shortlisted and finalist work can also receive press coverage, media exposure and wider recognition.
