Call for Entry | Emerging Photographer
Due: March 7, 2016
Emerging Photographer | PDN Each issue, Emerging Photographer features a new group of talent with five or less years of professional experience, selected by editors from Emerging Photographer, PDN and Rangefinder.
We love the diverse work we receive from photographers around the world, all with different styles and stories to tell. One of last year’s selected photographers, Luisa Dorr, immediately grabbed our attention with her documentary series on a young girl, Maysa, who aspires to become Miss Brazil. From the intimacy of the photos, to her use of beautiful light, to the careful 10-image edit of her series, we knew that Dorr deserved a platform for her series. She and nine other photographers each received features in the Winter 2015 issue, which was sent to photo editors, art buyers and creative directors, in addition to galleries and photo festivals. Digital editions are posted on issuu.com (see them atwww.issuu.com/eephotogroup). We want your work for the next issue. Visit emerging.pdncontests.com to enter. for more information on how to enter.
