Covid Chronicles

However damaging the pandemic was, not least to the events industry, it also brought the best out of society, with kindness and community spirit to the fore. From caterers delivering meals to the NHS, to vaccine volunteers coping with queues. This special one-off category gives entrants an opportunity to showcase what they captured while Covid was affecting our lives and industry.

PORTRAITS

A classic photography genre, Portraits probably should have been a category from the inception of the Event Photography Awards – but within the title lies the limiting and key factor… Entries need to be in the context of an event, but that can be anything from a conference or corporate away-day, to a concert or wedding.

Competitors in action makes for compelling photography, but also think sporting ‘events’ and everything that goes into to organising and enjoying them.
