Connecting a global community of photographers

100 global winners are selected annually for the AUTO PHOTO Top 100. Their work is printed in the annual AUTO PHOTO photobook, published by Shutter Hub Editions and housed in international archives and collections, including the British Library, Cambridge University, and Motorsport UK HQ. They are available in selected stockists around the world.

Each edition of the AUTO PHOTO book is not only a collection of the best automotive photography, it is also a powerful promotional tool – a portfolio of images sent to the people who buy and commission photography across the automotive and creative industries. 

Since launching in 2022, we’ve created opportunities for photographers of all backgrounds and experience. 

Through AUTO PHOTO photographers have reached new global audiences, secured motorsport accreditation, gained paid commissions, and seen their work published in magazines such as Chicane, Influx, Revolution and more. 

We’ve curated bespoke events, including a photography masterclass with FIA Girls on Track and BTCC, and professional portfolio reviews at Motorsport UK HQ, and collaborated with iconic brands and locations, including Ace Café London, Adrian Flux, Bicester Heritage, Caffeine & Machine, Cambridge University, EXCELR8 Motorsport, Great Northern Classics, Motorsport UK HQ and Silverstone Festival.

The AUTO PHOTO Awards, initially judged by the Duke of Richmond (Goodwood) and Karen Harvey MBE (AUTO PHOTO and Shutter Hub), are now selected by an extended panel of expert judges from the wider automotive and creative industries. 

Reaching 2.7 million people in 2025, the AUTO PHOTO Awards are designed to support photographers and create opportunities for everyone. Get involved!
