To give the work of professional photographers, the recognition they deserve, this Award will, with the support of our international editions, reward the best photo reports about women.
Our international jury will select 10 finalists including one Award Winner, who will receive 5 000€ and a a Nikon D800 D-SLR.
The Award Winner’s reportage will be published in Marie Claire France and in several Marie Claire International editions. And to salute all of the 10 shortlisted participants, an exhibition of their work made in partnership with Artelier Vikart will be held in Paris. The reportage submitted by each participant must compulsorily be a photographic reportage devoted to women (other than any “fashion series”)
