A table is decorated at the Muslim American Society’s Youth Center for an all-girls Prom in Brooklyn’s neighborhood of Bensonhurst. Because many Muslim communities have stricter societal rules regarding the social mixing of men and women, the all-girls prom is a chance for Muslim teenage girls to enjoy an American cultural event just like their peers, without having to compromise their cultural and religious beliefs.

Sarah Alsilwi tries on one of her dad’s hats in her family’s living room in the Bronx, New York. Sarah finished high school a year early and is already finishing up her first year of college studying Engineering. Having been born in New York, she took her first trip to Yemen last summer with her sister, against her parents wishes. Seeing the country suffering from war was a shock for Sarah, and she came home with new found pride in her heritage. She has since began work with her local mosque and non profits to raise awareness of the worsening situation in Yemen. Photo by Liz Sanders

Yann Giguere fits together joints in a multi-faced Shoji wall in his workshop in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn on Sunday October 22, 2016. The traditional Japanese technique Yann follows does not use any form of nail, so his pieces must fit together as tightly as possible; this requires great precision in craftsmanship.

Open Call: 2017 PDN Photo Annual

Hello Colleague,

If you haven’t yet heard, the 2017 PDN Photo Annual is open for entries through February 3rd at pdnphotoannual.com. It’s the 16th year we’ve hosted this prestigious competition, welcoming entries from photographers of all walks of life and honoring the best photography of the year. There are 10 categories in the annual, spanning assigned and personal work, photo books, student work, self-promotion pieces, stock and multimedia.

We are incredibly privileged to have the Photo Annual entries judged by some of the most influential creatives in the world, who work for National Geographic, WIRED, Getty Images, 72andSunny, The California Sunday Magazine, BBC News, Bon Appétit, ESPN The Magazine and many more. You can see this year’s jury here.

Our special awards and prizes include the return of the Marty Forscher Fellowship Fund for one pro ($4,000) and one student ($2,000), the $1,500 Sony Award, the $2,500 PDN Publisher’s Choice Award, and the new $10,000 Photographer of the Year Award, which can be awarded to ANY winner of the Photo Annual.

I encourage you to get your work in front of our judges and take advantage of the promotion that the Photo Annual brings. All winners will be published in the highly anticipated June issue of PDN, with additional distribution to photo editors and art directors who hire photographers, and prominently displayed at Barnes & Noble locations. An online gallery featuring winning work is our most-shared gallery of the year.

This summer, all winners and their creative teams will be invited to our Photo Annual party and awards ceremony in New York City. I am looking forward to seeing both familiar faces and new photographers who are making their mark in the photography industry.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out at lauren.wendle@emeraldexpo.com. For technical support, you can reach my team at info@pdncontests.com.

Sincerely,
