Celebrating great images and those who make them

The Creative Review Photography Annual seeks to celebrate great images, those who take them, and those who commission them.

It’s open to everyone involved in the making and use of brilliant photography ⁠— advertising agencies, publishers, galleries, designers, students, brands and, of course, photographers.

Each year we welcome a panel of esteemed judges, each with exceptional talent and knowledge within the creative industry, to help our in-house editorial team curate the best work for the Photography Annual: the definitive showcase of the most powerful, innovative and memorable imagery of the year.

Deadline: Midnight Friday September 10, 2021
