“Each year submitting to the competitions has encouraged my work and inspired me. Just knowing my work was seen by such influential people within the photographic community kept me going and going for the next."
--Heather Wilhelm, 2001-2009 contestant; 3rd place winner in 2003

Center's Choice Awards
Deadline: January 27, 2010

The Choice Awards recognizes outstanding photographs of any process and all subject matter. We have updated and expanded this competition to include three categories with more opportunities to get your work seen.

HOW TO ENTER
Application information and submission guidelines will be available in November. Sign up for the email newsletter to receive the most up-to-date information on the Center Awards.


ABOUT

Center provides a high quality and worthwhile experience for our contestants. We start by securing esteemed, relevant professionals to view submissions and select the winning work. We make sure that the judges have adequate time to view all of the work and ensure each of the photographer's images are carefully considered. Center serves the winners beyond the awards and prizes by continuing to promote their work throughout the year.

All contestants stand to benefit from the submission process by getting their work seen by the jurors. Judges will show interest in work that is not selected for the awards but that may be relevant for other reasons. For this reason, Center provides contact information of all the photographers with whom the jurors show interest. Finally, we ask that the jurors write a juror’s statement, which speaks to all the applicants, to shed some light on the judges process and selection criteria.
