The world’s leading automotive photography awards are back! AUTO PHOTO 2026 will celebrate 100 global winners. Connecting a global community of photographers and showcasing the best automotive photography from around the world.

The AUTO PHOTO Top 100 images will be printed in the annual AUTO PHOTO photobook, published by Shutter Hub Editions.

AUTO PHOTO books are housed in international archives and collections, including the British Library, Cambridge University, and Motorsport UK HQ, and 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’s also a powerful promotional tool – a portfolio of images sent to the people who buy and commission photography across the automotive and creative industries.

AUTO PHOTO introduces photographers to a host of opportunities and experiences through the Awards and supports them in getting published, receiving motorsport accreditation, and gaining paid commissions.

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

The AUTO PHOTO Top 100 2026 will award the best in global automotive photography, representing 100 winners from around the world.

Each winning photographer also receives a digital certificate and promo on social media.

Our Judges are the best in the industry. Get your work in front of them, and get recognised with one of their additional awards too.
