Our Up Next membership aims to foster community and nurture these emerging photographers to help them build their portfolios and launch their careers. This is a curated “Watch List” so editors and art directors can keep an eye out for these photographers as they continue to grow and potentially offer them entry level opportunities such as internships, workshops, fellowships, grants, portfolio reviews, and assignment work.
These are the photographers we will be keeping our eyes on as they continue to grow and refine their skills.
