The Head On Photo Awards 2024: Celebrating Global Photography Excellence

The Head On Photo Awards 2024, an eminent event in the global photography calendar, invites submissions from both emerging and established photographers worldwide. Recognized as Australia's premier photography competition, it embraces a diverse range of photographic genres, including portrait, landscape, and environmental themes​.

The competition, part of the Head On Photo Festival, offers a substantial prize pool totalling $80,000 AUD. Each main category winner receives $10,000 AUD, alongside additional prizes like book packs from Photobook Australia and subscriptions to prominent photography magazines.

This year Head On has introduced a new category, ‘Exposure’ to accommodate images in all styles and genres, such as advertising, street, architecture, fine art, travel and anything else that does not fit into Portrait or Landscape.

Another new highlight this year is 50% discounted entry for anyone under 25.
