The Independent Photo Portrait Award

Time to showcase your talent: the 2026 Portrait Award is officially open! 📸 ⁠💫 ⁠ Whether you are a seasoned professional or an emerging talent, we are looking for portraits that speak volumes this June—from the precision of the studio to the vivid backdrops of your travels; we want to see the narratives you capture through your lens. Submission fee based on number of entries. Winners will receive global exposure, $2,000 cash prizes, and a feature in our international group exhibition in London. Additionally, all seven competition finalists will receive $100. 🏆
