Capture magazine’s Australia’s Top Emerging Photographers awards will return in 2012 for their third consecutive year.
The awards aim to encourage and identify up and coming photographers and promote them in the early stages of their photographic careers.
The call for entries went out in late 2011 and close on February 24.
To be in the running to win the title of Australia’s Top Emerging Photographer, photographers with less than four years’ full-time professional shooting are invited to submit six images in one or more of eight categories: Advertising; Architecture; Editorial and Fashion; Landscape; Documentary and Photojournalism, Portrait; Sport; and Wedding.
Entries will be judged by some of Australia’s leading professional photographers including Simon Harsent, Andreas Bommert, Sean Izzard, Stephen Dupont and Petrina Tinsley.
The judges will name a winner from each category, plus an overall winner who will win the title of Australia’s Top Emerging Emerging Photographer 2012. Winners will be announced on the Australian Photography website and their work will be published in the May/June 2012 edition of Capture Magazine in late April 2012.
Capture is Australia’s top-selling magazine for professional and emerging photographers. It is published by Yaffa Publishing, the publisher of this website.
