Entries will soon be closing on February 5, 2023 for the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year competition. As we enter the festive season, now is your last chance (and the perfect time!) to start shooting some creative foodie images.
To help with inspiration for your next food photography shoot, the competition organizers have put together a collection of mouth-watering festive food images from previous entries that will have you making flour angels in no time.
The Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year competition also welcomes film submissions as well as still images, and the twenty-plus categories celebrate the range, diversity, creativeness, and breadth of food photography as a genre.
New for 2023, the competition has announced a new category for food photographers to enter, titled The Pink Lady Moments of Joy category, for images that show or represent the joy experienced through cooking, preparing, serving, or consuming food. The category winner for Moments of Joy will be awarded the prize of £1,500 ($1,800 / AU$2,675 approximately).
There's also a category called On the Phone that accepts images captured using your smartphone, when times call for you to put the "proper" camera away at the dinner table. These categories are all perfect opportunities for capturing your festive food photographs, as family traditionally comes together.
