Together we are building the art market and strengthening the position of color photography in the art world.

Prizes:
Grand Prize is $2.000 for Professional Winner and $1.000 For Amateur Winner.

Equipped with 20 intricate categories in color photography, the annual Chromatic Awards 2023 will also give away 3 main awards for each category. In the same vein, all category winners and Honorable Mentions will receive downloadable badges and certificates of achievement.

This year’s 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners along with the Honorable Mentions handpicked by book editors from both the Professional and Amateur levels will likewise be published in our Chromatic Awards Annual Book.
