PHOTO COMPETITION ANNOUNCEMENT

Theme: Shoot with Intent

This month, we invite you to slow down and get intentional.

Before you press the shutter, ask yourself one powerful question:

“Who is this photo for?”

Not:

  • Is this pretty?

  • Will people like this?

  • Would I post this on Instagram?

Instead:

  • Is this for a buyer?

  • A specific type of client?

  • A brand or industry?

  • Portfolio growth?

  • A long-term body of work?

  • Or to define my own photographic identity?

Your Brief:

Create images that are guided by purpose, not impulse. 

We’re looking for clarity of intent, not perfection.

 

Closing Date:  20 February 2026
