25 May 2010
The annual Canon AIPP Australian Professional Photography Awards will be held in Melbourne starting June 4 2010. The gm photographics team will travel to Melbourne where we will enter wedding prints and albums.
APPA is the acronym for the Australian Professional Photography Awards, which are held annually and usually coincide with the staging of an annual photo imaging exhibition organised by the Photo Imaging Council of Australia (PICA). The current major sponsor of APPA is Canon.
Professional photographers from Australia and New Zealand compete for a number of industry awards by submitting four images, which are judged by a panel of their peers. The Canon AIPP APPA attracts hundreds of entries and the premier award is the title of “The Canon AIPP Australian Professional Photographer of the Year”. Each year award winning images are published in an Awards Book.
