WPE – International Photographers Awards – First Half

WPE – International Photographers Awards – First Half

Deadline: January 19, 2021
Entry Fee: from €12 to €600
Prizes: €2,000, Trophies

The foundation of the WPE Awards was laid in 2014 in Paris.

As most of you know, the founders of WPE are in the photography profession just like you.

After countless contests they have been participating in for years, they have presented WPE to you by noting the deficiencies in the contests and developing them with their own visions.

Archiving is one of the most important issues on the WPE website developed in full response to the expectations of a photographer.

Thanks to the exchange of ideas with the experts in the field, it was possible to create archives both in the general profile of the website and in the member profiles.

The awards you will earn will be stored for years on the WPE website which was created by providing a solid infrastructure.

Your awards that will be open to access will represent the family tree of your photography life.

Thanks to our archives, the next generations will have the opportunity to see the awards you have won, and you will set an example for them.

Our aim is not only to give you badges but also to ensure that your investments are permanent.

If you check out our site carefully, you will already see this.

Let WPE immortalize the moment you have captured…

What is beautiful is shared.

What is shared is remembered.

Let future generations know you with WPE!
