Photo requirements

While the judges shall evaluate entries based only on the above criteria, it is very important to comply with the following requirements:

Resolution

min. 1028×768
Photos taken with low-res mobile phones or other low-resolution photos shall NOT be accepted.

Aspect ratio

4:3. Just keep the normal aspect ratio of your camera – avoid widescreen shots or aspect-altering cropping. Photos can be shot in portrait (vertical) or landscape (horizontal) mode.

Focus

Please ensure that the subject is complete and in focus. Blurry images shall be rejected.

Watermarks, logos, names

There should be NO watermarks, logos, names or any other identifying marks on the images.

Montages

Composite photos or montages are NOT accepted.

File size

Max. 5MB / photo.

File format

.jpg, .jpeg We regret that we can’t accept other file formats.

File name

Please use the following convention to name the files: givenname-familyname-designname-number.jpg e.g. anne-tate-cat-1.jpg

Composition

Please ensure that your work is the primary subject of the picture; it should be large and clearly visible.
Photography tips:

  1. Works are appreciated more when the model is looking directly into the camera.
  2. To get the most natural photos, try to hold the camera lens at the same height as the model’s eyes.
  3. Backgrounds can matter – try to get a clean, flat background.
  4. Try to ensure that there is enough ambient light – camera flash by itself is often not enough.
