Beauty, Talent, Experience, what more do you need? ...Oh and they are amazing judges.


We are delighted to welcome back Dennis Orchard to the judging panel. With a rich and diverse history in photography Dennis brings a rich depth to the judging.

Dan O'Day blows my mind! The illustrative take that Dan brings to his photography is a thing of wonder and beauty. We look forward to the insight Dan is bringing to the illustrative and creative elementas of the competition.

Another new face we are delighted to introduce is Maria Tsoli. Maria brings passion and an eye for detail to the Wedding and Portrait categories.
