TheAppWhisperer Joins The Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year Awards 2019, Advisory Panel!
I am totally thrilled to join the Advisory Panel of The Pink Food Photographer of the Year Awards 2019. These Awards, ‘are the most prestigious in the Industry’, so says The Independent national newspaper and it’s all true. Open to professional and non-professional, old and young, the Awards celebrate the very best in food photography and film from around the world.
The Finalists are invited to a magnificent Champagne Taittinger reception at the world-renowned Mall Galleries, London followed by a five-day public exhibition. The prize pool is worth more than £20,000 and Finalists benefit from huge amounts of coverage.
The categories cover the full cultural range of the depiction of food in society – there is something for everyone. From styled food for magazines to images of families eating together in celebration of religious festivals, from depictions of the realities of food production to food growing in its natural setting.
Since 2011, almost 50,000 images have been submitted from over 60 countries. Pink Lady® Food Photographer of the Year was founded by Caroline Kenyon and her team at The Food Awards Company, a Luke Johnson-backed venture.
I urge you to enter, these awards are absolutely stunning. Many thanks to the founder Caroline Kenyon for asking me to take part. There is a specific mobile phone food category, to enter, please go here. The costs are £6 to enter per image and £2 from each entry goes to Action Against Hunger (Registered charity no.1047501)
