The 11th annual Mobile Photography Awards (MPA) has announced its winners for 2022.

The overall Grand Prize winning portfolio was captured by Shanghai-based photographer Liu KunKun, with his images captured on Apple iPhone12 ProMax. He received $3,000 USD for the win.

Liu KunKun calls himself a "non-professional freelance photographer who shoots everything. I work with people,” he says.

'He has a great mastery of geometry and perspective and taken together with color and minimalism he transmits a photographic, personal style into his own voice,' said jury member Rodrigo Rivas.

“The iPhone is still the most widely used by our entrants but this year we’ve seen a huge variety of camera phones used for our winning photos," said Mobile Photography Awards founder Daniel Berman. "The work we see each year always gets better.”

Winning and honorable mentioned images from the MPAs will be exhibited in cities all over the world including Melbourne, Toronto and San Francisco, later this year.
