Studio Portrait Photography Contest

We invite you to take part in the "Studio Portrait" contest — a space for expressive and profound portrait photography, where light, composition, and the model's gaze come together to create a complete artistic image. We are looking for photographs in which studio work reveals itself as a deliberate exploration of form: with carefully crafted lighting design, precise tonal refinement, and close attention to the subject's character. Works in any stylistic approach are welcome — from classic Rembrandt lighting to bold color schemes, from minimalist solutions to complex multi-layered setups. We value technical proficiency, the ability to direct a model, and the photographer's vision capable of turning a studio shot into an emotional and visual story.

Accepted:
  • Studio portraits of models of any gender and age, where the main focus is on the subject's image, and the subject occupies at least 2/3 of the frame
  • Shots featuring other people, provided they are organically integrated into the concept and do not draw attention away from the main subject

Not Accepted:
  • Photographs with a nude or semi-nude model (nude, topless, erotic content)
  • Shots taken outside the studio (outdoors, in natural or home interiors)

Vote

The voices of the audience are accepted during the period of acceptance of work and 20 days after completion.
