Million Dollar Portrait Prize

A picture is worth a thousand words, but could yours be worth $1m?

Submit

Whether you’re a hobbyist, a professional, or just the person who snaps the pics at family gatherings because you know how to work the camera, everyone who takes a photograph has a common purpose; they have a story they want to tell.  And we want to hear yours.

The largest digital photography competition in history, the Million Dollar Portrait Prize photo contest is here, and the theme for submissions is ‘portraits’. Entrants can submit a photo of any composition under this theme, where the subject is one or more persons, and their face/faces are the predominant focus.

Our contest is open to amateur or professional photographers aged 18 or over from anywhere in the world. As long as you can snap a portrait, you have a chance to claim the million-dollar prize.
