ACAMIS Photography Competition 2026

ACAMIS Photography Competition

“Photography is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.”
– Dorothea Lange

This year’s theme invites students to express the power of perception by seeing beyond the obvious and telling stories through their lenses. Like Dorothea Lange's work, student photographs can challenge, provoke, and reveal hidden truths in the world. This experience will allow students to develop visual storytelling skills, enhance creativity, and learn to see the world from different perspectives.

Students will have the opportunity to use various photographic techniques and tools, fostering problem-solving and technical skills. They can express themselves across genres such as landscapes, street scenes, portraits, macro, or unusual perspectives. Photography mediums to explore include cyanotype, analogue, digital, or photo manipulation, creating images that inspire others to see differently and reflect the student's unique perspective.
