Redbridge Photography Awards 2025
The Redbridge Photography Awards are back - bigger and better than ever!
Get your cameras ready and share your best snaps of life in Redbridge!
Our borough is home to some of the country's most stunning parks, striking architecture, and vibrant communities - and we want to see them through your lens.
Entry is completely free, and winners will be invited to a special awards ceremony where their photos will be unveiled in a public exhibition. Winning entries will also be featured and celebrated in the autumn edition of Redbridge Life as well as being on display at Redbridge Central Library. And that’s not all - we’ve got some fantastic prizes up for grabs this year!
Take a look at last year's winners.
Photo categories
You can submit one photo under each of the following categories:
Redbridge Pets - This category is all about capturing the unique personality of your furry, feathered, or even scaly friends. Whether it’s a playful dog, a curious cat, or a colourful parrot, we want to see their special moments.
Redbridge Heroes - This category is about celebrating the amazing people in our community. Do you know someone making a difference in Redbridge? Maybe a volunteer, a teacher, or a local business owner? Take their photo and share a few words about what they do and how they help make Redbridge a better place.
Redbridge Places - This category highlights the borough’s unique architecture and special locations. Whether it’s a historic landmark, a busy high street, or a hidden gem, we want to see the places that make Redbridge special.
Redbridge Nature - Redbridge is home to beautiful parks, gardens, and wildlife. This category celebrates the natural beauty of the borough. From a peaceful forest to a tiny insect on a flower, show us the wonders of Redbridge’s nature.
Redbridge Young People’s Award - This special category is just for young photographers under the age of 18. Young people can submit photos of anything that represents their view of Redbridge - whether it’s friends, family, places or everyday life.
