For 28 years, photo l.a. has celebrated and brought together the photography and arts community. It is with this mission that we present a biannual photography competition to help provide emerging and mid career artists/photographers opportunities to broaden their career opportunities and promote their work on a platform in which to promote their winning work within the photo l.a. network. Through our long-established partnerships with world-renowned photography art galleries, art fairs, museums, and publications, winners of past competitions have been picked up by international galleries and magazines, expanding their art career.
