*Note: Cash prizes are not cumulative. Only one cash prize can be awarded to each winner with the highest available prize applied.
For example, if a winner is awarded both European Photographer of the Year (Professional Category) and Category Winner of the Year, they will only receive the $3,000 cash prize from the European Photographer of the Year and not $100 from winning the latter. First place Category Winners can only receive one $100 cash prize even if they win the title in multiple categories.
If you submitted your entries through an award agent and won either European Photographer or Category Winner of the Year, IAA will proceed to issue the cash prize to the closest representative of the winning entry, the award agent, to collect it on your behalf. Please liaise with your award agent on the matter of cash prizes. Cash prizes will be issued either to the winners or award agent within a month after the announcement of results.
The European Photography Awards and International Awards Associate’s decision are final in its sole discretion and binding in relation to all matters relating to Competitions and may not be subject to any discussions or correspondence.
The European Photography Awards competition is designed for convenience
of the entrant by entering online and uploading your entries.
Image Limits; Up to ten images in JPEG and one PDF can be uploaded per entry. For easy results, ensure images are formatted as a flattened JPEG/JPG, 1,920px wide, 300 dpi, RGB, and no larger than 4MB.
Each individual image should pertain to the category you have entered into. For example, Architecture Photography submissions should include photos that depict buildings of all shapes and sizes whilst People Photography submissions should include photos that depict the individual as the main focus. Detailed descriptions are required to allow the judges to better understand the emotion/meaning behind the images you chose to submit.
Submissions can be entered as professional, amateur, or student works. All images submitted may not be older than five years.
Limit written descriptions of your images to 350 words or less.
