Deadline: July 22, 2024

Applications are open for the UPPA Young Photographer Award 2024. The Young Photographer Award is an educational award geared towards passionate emerging photographers looking to cultivate a career in documentary photography or photojournalism.

The winner of the competition gets an opportunity to participate in an intensive Mentorship Programme. The programme is designed to give young photographers a chance to learn more about photography with a bootcamp course as well as developing a documentary photography project under the guidance of an industry professional. The photographic outcomes from the mentorship are exhibited in Kampala.

Prize

  • The Winner gets a UGX 1,000,000 cash prize.

Eligibility

  • Open to emerging, passionate, Ugandan photographers between the ages of 21 and 28 years looking to cultivate a career in professional photography.
  • Image size: 6000px on the longest dimension. (sRGB, 300 dpi, jpg format)
  • One proposal per photographer will be considered. In the case of multiple submissions being received from a single photographer only the first proposal received will be considered.

Application

Photographers are asked to submit the following:

  • A motivation letter introducing yourself as well as explaining why you should be considered for the award and the mentorship program;
  • A photographic project idea of a long-term project that you would like to realize and take on during the mentorship program. This has to be a realistic and attainable idea, as you may have to follow through during the mentorship program;
  • A portfolio of 20 JPEG images to see your photographic skill in practice.

Remember – images submitted will speak for you and your talent, so be sure to show them a variety of your best work. The images do not have to be part of a singular story.

All submissions must be done online through the Visura platform.
