Ian Parry Scholarship

Ian Parry was a photojournalist who died while on assignment for The Sunday Times during the Romanian revolution in 1989. He was just 24 years of age. Aidan Sullivan, then picture editor, and Ian’s friends and family created the Ian Parry Scholarship in order to build something positive from such a tragic death. Each year we hold an international photographic competition for young photographers who are either attending a full-time photographic course or are under 24.

The Ian Parry Scholarship is divided into two categories: The Sunday Times Award for Achievement and The Canon Award for Potential.

The entry criteria for both is the same and the judges will make their decisions based on the individual merits of the entries. Entrants must submit a portfolio and a clear proposal of a project they would undertake if they won the scholarship.

To enter this year’s Ian Parry Scholarship, you will need to be 24 or younger or enrolled on a full-time recognized photographic course. Your application should contain the following information:

1) Your name, date of birth, permanent address, personal email address, personal telephone number, and if applicable, college, the course title, and course tutor.

2) A project description giving us details of the portfolio you have uploaded for this application and 12 extended captions

3) A project proposal telling us how winning the Ian Parry Scholarship and $3500, would enable you to continue with the above project or how it would enable you to start a new photographic project.

4) A portfolio of 12 (low resolution) photographs, either a photo essay or individual photos.

5) Extended captions for each image as a word document. Please follow the instructions on our submit form carefully.

There is no entry fee.
