Posted on Nov 4, 2024

The LCE Photographer of the Year 2025 competition has officially opened for submissions following a successful debut event that drew over 13,000 entries in 2024

Organised by independent UK retailer London Camera Exchange (LCE), the contest celebrates photographers of all skill levels, offering a total of £10,000 in prizes across 14 diverse categories.

New for this year is the ‘Emerging Talent’ category, aimed at photography students, with prizes that benefit both the student and their educational institution.

Entrants can submit their work online or in person at any of LCE’s 26 stores nationwide. Participants can choose from categories including Action, Portrait, Wildlife, and the popular ‘People’s Choice’, a publicly voted award.
