Apply now for this free event for photographers

Applications are now open for the free New York Portfolio Review, which is produced by The New York Times photo department, Photoville and the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY.

This year we are bringing together 140 talented photographers with 70 top photo editors, publishers and curators for the 11th annual New York Portfolio Review on April 13 and 14, 2024.

Due to popular demand, and the need to be as accessible as possible for those who cannot travel, the 2024 review will take place in-person and remotely. On Saturday, April 13, the review will be in-person in New York. On Sunday, April 14, the review will be held virtually over Zoom. Photographers can apply for either the in-person review on April 13, or the online review on April 14. But not both. Once you apply, you will not be able to change which day, or format, that you wish to participate in.

Participation is open to anyone 18 or older. The review focuses on photojournalism, editorial and documentary photography, though all types of work will be considered.

A mainstay of photo events in the United States, the review convenes members of the photographic community to share work, exchange ideas, help each other — and have fun. On Sunday, April 7, there will be online workshops and presentations open to all the photographers attending either day of the review. Topics will include working with photo editors, running a business, negotiating contracts, editing and sequencing your own photos and self-care.

Each in-person participant will receive five private critiques. Each photographer attending remotely will receive four private critiques.

  • Photographers who attended last year’s review are not eligible to apply. Those who attended once in previous years can apply for this year’s review, but they must submit new work. Those who have already attended the review twice cannot apply.

  • When you apply, you will be asked to select your top choices for the reviewers you most want to see. You must choose 15. We will match the photographers chosen to attend with as many of those reviewers as possible using an algorithm.

  • To apply, send no more than 10 photos total, from one or two projects or bodies of work, using this form.

  • The files should be jpegs, 1,500 pixels at the longest side and 72 D.P.I.

  • Each file needs to be less than four megabytes each. Entries with files larger than four megabytes will be disqualified.

  • You can only apply once. Choose either Saturday (in person) or Sunday (remote). Not both. If you apply more than once you will be disqualified.

  • We will inform those who are accepted by March 8, 2024. Be sure to triple-check the email address you submit.

  • Photographs submitted will only be used to choose who attends the review. They will not be used for any other purpose.

  • If you have any questions email us at newyorkportfolioreview@gmail.com

  • Here, again, is the application form to submit photos.
