  • You must enter and pay your case fee on Printcompetition.com in order for your entry to be valid. You can also register for the critique session buffet lunch on Printcompetition.com
  • We are challenging every CTPPA member and every professional photographer to enter print competition. Entering can improve your skills and make you a better photographer!
    o    Entering a competition pushes you as a professional photographer by letting you put your skills to the test. Find out what you're capable of while learning new skills and honing old ones.
    o    Entering a competition may seem daunting, but it's one of the best, most rewarding experiences you'll have as a professional - and as an artist.
    o    You might be fearful, afraid of competing against other photographers, but in reality, you are competing against yourself, that is, you will improve, and you can measure that improvement from competition to competition and from year to year. To this end, we have added a new award, the Club 480 award, which is awarded to ALL photographers whose case of 6 earns 480 or above.
    o    Entering a competition also provides fodder for publicity, which helps set you apart from other professional photographers.

  • Not sure about what prints to pick for competition?  Consider using our free service the "Master's Mentor Critique Forum".
