He was crowned the overall winner of the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year Award 2017 for his image “Food for God”.

This photograph and all 20 winners from other categories will be exhibited by Pink Lady Europe throughout July at the international photography festival Les Rencontres d’Arles, in France.

“We are delighted to support the awards each year, and love seeing great talent from all over the world showcase their food photography,” says Andy Macdonald, managing director of Pink Lady Apples UK.

The competition celebrates the beauty of fresh ingredients and mealtime rituals through striking and vibrant images taken all over the world.

Entries for 2018 are now open and photographers have until next February to get involved.

Now in its seventh year, the competition has a number of categories covering a range of how food can be depicted in society. This can include styled studio images for magazine shoots, families eating together, fresh produce cultivation, food/travel photography and so much more.

Pink Lady Food Photography Award judges are looking for images showing off technical skills, originality and a connection with the subject.
