Sony World Photography Awards 2025

The Sony World Photography Awards is a major competition for photographers and artists working in the field of photography. From the start, Sony's competition has supported inclusivity and access by offering free participation. Keeping a pulse on today’s photography in all its diversity, it shines a spotlight on photographers who tell the stories of our time.

The competition (opening on June 1, 2024) consists of several sections with different deadlines:

• The Student competition closes on November 29, 2024, 13:00 (GMT)
• The Youth competition closes on January 3, 2025, 13:00 (GMT)
• The Open competition (including regional and national awards, the national awards for Latin America, and the Alpha award for women) closes on January 3, 2025, 13:00 (GMT)
• The Professional competition (including the award for professionals from Latin America) closes on January 10, 2025, 13:00 (GMT)

There are many categories and themes; in practice, the competition can be considered open-themed. However, the 2025 edition of the awards introduces a new, interesting category in the Professional competition: Perspectives. Participants are invited to submit bodies of work that tell stories through various genres and formats – documentaries, creative mediums, and even mixes of portraits, landscapes, and still life.

All winners of the Professional, Open, Youth, and Student categories will receive a set of Sony digital photography equipment. Additionally, the Photographer of the Year and Open Photographer of the Year will receive cash prizes of $25,000 and $5,000 respectively, while the Sustainability Prize will have a value of $5,000. The Photographer of the Year will also be the subject of a solo exhibition at the London show of the Sony World Photography Awards the following year. The winning images of each category and the finalists will be exhibited in London at the annual Sony World Photography Awards exhibition, which will then tour other parts of the world, and be published in the annual catalog of the Sony World Photography Awards.
