PISPA is a photo competition dedicated to street photography.

This year we will celebrate our 6th edition which will be a special edition full of good surprises for photographers.

Since the first edition we have distributed more than $20K of Cash Prize to the winning photographers. In addition, we ensure that the work of photographers can circulate and have visibility.

To do this, we have gradually established key partnerships with influential actors in the world of photography. As such, the 2023 edition promises to be exceptional to the extent that we become a partner of Xposure, the largest festival dedicated to photography in the world which takes place every year at Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates.

This festival will do us the honor of physically exhibiting the work of not only the two grand prize winners of our contest but also the special mentions (6 in number) and the finalists (10 in number).

We are also pleased to announce that we have also entered into an exclusive partnership with Snap Collective, a publishing house that grows from year to year, and which this year will give our winners, special mentions and finalists the chance to publish their first photo monograph. Being able to edit a photo book is a dream and a challenge that all photographers want to accomplish at some point in their career.

In addition to these unique and unparalleled partnerships, our winning photographers in our competition will be invited to participate in a major festival with their work which will either be exhibited or screened with accommodation costs covered by our platform. Les Nuits Photographiques de Pierrevert is one of the largest photo festivals in France which will celebrate this year its 13th edition.

We cannot fail to also point out that the work of the winners will also be published in two magazines prestigious dedicated to photography.

Our jury, as every year, evolves by including new names and actors from the world of photography while maintaining a certain balance within its members between photographers, publishers, gallery owners...

This is to say that over the years our competition has acquired a real relay platform made by and for photographers so that they can benefit from opportunities which can be a real springboard for their career. Many of our photographers have acquired international notoriety by benefiting from the aura of our competition and its sounding board which are social networks and strong lobbying and networking with key contacts in the photography world.
