Kiss My Camera Opens with New Category for Live Shots of Touring Acts
Free to enter and open to photographers of all levels, WAM’s annual Kiss My Camera competition celebrates the valuable work of music photographers from across WA and shines a light on the incredible music moments captured over the last year.
This year’s competition will see categories recognising Best Portrait/Press Shot of a WA Act and Best Live Photograph of a WA Act return. Plus, to provide opportunities for local photographers shooting larger scale music events, a new category has been added this year recognising Best Live Photograph of a Touring Act (any national/international act, as long as it’s shot in WA).
Shortlisted shots will again be on show for tens of thousands to enjoy, with the exhibition running on both the Perth Cultural Centre Screen and the Northbridge Piazza Screen, thanks to the Perth Cultural Centre and the City of Perth.
Aside from scoring heaps of valuable exposure, category winners will also take home a generous prize pack, thanks to our fantastic Kiss My Camera sponsors, including:
- A feature in scenestr magazine
- 1hr consultation with Sorrento Strategic Music for tax advice particularly relevant to photographers
- 8 hrs studio time at Huzzard Studios
