Shot of the Year 2024 Winners
Every month we choose one photo from our students as our ‘Shot of the month’. This is based on the amount of engagement their photo gets, together with our judgment here at The School of Photography. Having put all of these shots together, we then have a final ‘Shot of the Year’ vote, and the results are in!
We added all the pictures to our Instagram feed and created a Facebook Gallery showcasing all the photos. We then asked you, our members, viewers and readers, to scroll through and show some love to the pictures you felt were most deserving of ‘Shot of the Year’.
We had some incredible submissions last year, but of course there can only be two winners

We loved this picture by Emma, it really is spectacular! Emma said "Pretty proud of this one! Rocked up to Bushy Park hoping for a sunny-ish morning only to find the weather was not playing ball and the clouds more persistent than expected. Knowing the light was not going to be good I knew I’d be pushing it but with the help of a little editing post in Lightroom, I’m chuffed with this."
A huge congratulations to you, Emma! We will be in touch shortly to arrange your prizes.
Well done again to both our winners. The competition in 2024 brought some excellent pictures and well done to all that submitted their photos. We look forward to seeing what 2025 brings.
