About Us



The World Photography Organisation (WPO) supports professional, amateur and student photography and lends a global platform for the photographic industry to communicate, converge and showcase current trends in Photojournalism, Fine Art and Commercial Photography.

The World Photography Organisation delivers various initiatives and programmes across the global photographic community under the "World Photography" brand. These programmes involve the amateur and professional photographer in commercial, cultural and educational activities within the photographic industry. Currently included within the World Photography portfolio are the World Photography Awards sponsored by Sony; the World Photography Student Focus Competition; the World Photography Awards Global Tour, the World Photography Collection and the World Photography Focus Programme.

The WPO’s aim is to support photographers whilst creating new avenues in which to develop the photographic practices within the industry, enabling photographers to have their work seen internationally, establish photography into new and less mature markets, introducing young talent to a world-wide public and photography audience, and provide various annual meeting grounds for a global industry to converge and facilitate exchange within the market.
