Photographer of the Year 2024 presented by Ted's cameras is now open

We're delighted to announce our flagship annual photo competition, Photographer of the Year presented by Ted's Cameras, is now open for entries. 

Over the past decade, Photographer of the Year has become an important launchpad for many amateur photographers in Australia and New Zealand.

For 2024, entrants will compete for a prize pool valued at more than $16,000, and a selection of the winning and runner-up images will be exhibited at Ted's World of Imaging in Sydney. 

Photographer of the Year includes six portfolio categories – Landscape, Animal & Nature, People, Aerial, Travel and Black & White – and three single-image categories – Single Shot, Creative and Junior (for entrants under 18).

To enter the competition you must be an amateur photographer (as defined in the terms and conditions), and a citizen or resident of Australia or New Zealand.

We're hugely grateful to our great sponsors Ted's cameras, and supporting partners Sony, Gigabyte, Aorus, Ilford and The Brownbill Effect.

Currently, we're offering discounted earlybird pricing of just $15 an entry ($10 for junior) until May 31.

You can enter the competition here.
