2023 Photography Competition

The 2023 SSLP Photography Competition ran for 5 months from January to May. We received a total of 321 entries, with the most popular month being February when we had 107 submissions to round 2. Our five rounds were supported by five excellent guest judges.

Our five rounds were

• The Extraordinary Ordinary judged by Lillie Eiger (101 entries)
• Natural Worlds judged by Alice Cazenave (107 entries)
• Motion and Distortion judged by Mel Bles (55 entries)
• Forgotten Objects judged by Sophie Bullen (30 entries)
• Reflections and Perspectives judged by Karl Simms (28 entries)

All 321 entries were considered for the final award of Best Picture, and all entrants who had submitted a picture in each of the five rounds were considered for the prize of Best Portfolio.

For the final we invited SSLP Co-Directors to be the judges. Dr Joe Spence, Master of Dulwich College, has picked a winner and runner-up from the student entries; and Marcus Huntley, Principal of The Charter School Bermondsey chose his favourites from the staff entries.

Both judges then selected their choice for Best Portfolio. Everyone will receive prizes.
